China has pledged to cut the number of troops in its army by 300,000, in an unexpected announcement made by Chinese president Xi Jinping on Thursday (3 September 2015). Xi disclosed the news during a speech made before the beginning of a huge military parade in Beijing's Tiananmen Square, held to mark the end of World War II and celebrate China's victory over Japan. Xi said that a 13% cut would be made in the country's 2.3 million-armed forces, stressing that China was committed to peace, although he gave no indication of when it would be implemented. "War is like a mirror," he said. "Looking at it helps us better understand the value of peace. China will remain committed to peaceful development. We Chinese love peace." China has cut the size of its military three times since the 1980s, according to media reports. (Photo by Ge jinfh / Imaginechina via AFP)
