      An elephant-themed performance featuring traditional dances from the Dai ethnic group in southwest China's Yunnan Province displayed the harmonious co-existence between mankind and nature during the China Media Group (CMG)'s Spring Festival which ushered in the Year of the Snake on Wednesday.

      The grand television showcase has integrated traditional culture with innovative means to entertain audiences on the eve of the Chinese New Year, with a host of performances being staged during the hours-long variety show which was broadcast live on Tuesday night.

      The dance show, performed by dancers from the Yunnan Provincial Song and Dance Ensemble, drew inspiration from the migration of wild elephants in Yunnan Province, a story which has attracted global attention in recent years.

      With innovative movements, dancers presented a stirring scene depicting the important relationship between nature and mankind, and of the need to boost conservation efforts and protect the natural environment.

      With the Spring Festival's recent inscription onto UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage list, this year's gala integrated more elements of intangible cultural heritage to create a cultural feast for global audiences.

      Recognized by the Guinness World Records as the world's most-watched annual TV program, the hours-long television extravaganza attracts over a billion views every year.

      U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Saturday to impose a 10-percent tariff on goods imported from China. The latest U.S. trade protectionist measure has drawn widespread opposition both domestically and internationally.

      The White House said the 10-percent tariff is on all imports from China on top of existing tariffs. Trump says the tariffs dovetail with his embrace of protectionist measures.

      Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning has said that China always believes that there is no winner in a trade war or tariff war, and remains steadfast in safeguarding its national interests. Spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce He Yadong said China's position on the tariff issue is consistent. Tariff measures are not conducive to the interests of either China or the United States, nor to the rest of the world, He said.

      According to the executive order, the United States also imposed a 25-percent tariff on goods from Mexico and Canada. For energy products from Canada, the administration imposed a 10-percent tariff.
