🇨🇳🇦🇪 China's Xi says rule of law must be upheld for Middle East peace and announced strategic partnership with the UAE

The international rule of law must be upheld for peace and stability to prevail in the Middle ‌East, China's President Xi Jinping said. He will hold talks with U.S. President Donald Trump in an expected meeting in Beijing next month.

"The ​rule of law cannot be used when convenient and discarded when not. We must not allow the world to revert to the law of the jungle", — Xi said.

China was willing to work with the UAE to build a more robust, resilient, and dynamic strategic partnership. Beijing is willing to explore cooperation in energy storage, hydrogen and new energy vehicles. 🤝

"Bilateral trade should be expanded in scale, but also optimised structurally. China ​welcomed more UAE investment in sectors such as AI, advanced manufacturing and ​life sciences," — China's No.2, Premier Li Qiang said.

🤑 Compliance-Ready Privacy on Stellar

Stellar has become a fundamental network for payments, stablecoins, and financial applications. That raises a sharper question: what does the next layer of infrastructure need to look like if real-world payments are going to move on-chain at scale? 🤔

➡️ For Arcane Finance, the answer is clear. Payments need privacy and compliance in the same system, and Stellar is one of the strongest places to build it. 🧱

🔐 How Arcane Brings Compliance-Ready Privacy to Stellar?

Arcane adds a shared privacy and compliance layer with built-in support for disclosure, auditability, and reporting on top of Stellar that enables applications to run private financial flows without building custom infrastructure from scratch.

🛡 Applications can integrate the layer through Arcane’s SDKs and APIs, using a turnkey solution instead of developing bespoke privacy and reporting systems in-house.

At the core is a non-custodial compliance-ready ZK shielded pool where assets move privately between users and applications, combined with a structured audit layer that records encrypted transaction events. 🔄

Arcane also supports role-based disclosure, allowing users, operators, auditors, and regulators to access scoped information under defined conditions. 📊⚡️Reporting is generated on demand and limited by role, time window, and data scope, and the product includes an interface for auditors to generate financial reports for regulators and investigate cases when required.

Arcane’s focus is straightforward:
➡️bring compliance-ready privacy to Stellar in a form applications can actually integrate and use
➡️with configurable controls
➡️that support cleaner entry into the pool
➡️private execution by default
➡️reporting or investigation when needed.
