Launched in 1993 (Chinese edition) and 2009 (English edition), Global Times is a state-owned daily tabloid newspaper focusing on international news and commentary from a staunchly Chinese nationalist perspective. It is known for its provocative, often confrontational editorials and articles that defend the policies of the Chinese government and criticize Western countries. The publication's stated mission is to "report China to the world" and "tell the world about China," serving as a key platform for China's external propaganda and public diplomacy efforts.
