China-Japan Tensions Deepen as G20 Meeting is Rejected

China has ruled out a meeting between its premier, Li Qiang, and Japanese leaders at the upcoming G20 summit. This decision continues a diplomatic chill between the two countries, which stems from heightened tensions over Taiwan. Separately, a new report indicates a shift in international student demographics in the United States. The number of Chinese students has fallen, widening the gap with students from India, who now form the largest foreign student group. These developments highlight key geopolitical and educational trends.
