China Media Group (CMG) will launch a landmark multilingual broadcast on September 3, delivering the 80th anniversary commemoration of the Victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War to global audiences. The event – featuring a grand gathering and military parade – will be transmitted in 85 languages, marking one of the most linguistically diverse war memorial broadcasts in history.
The programming aims to highlight historical lessons of unity against fascism while showcasing China's contributions to the Allied victory. Analysts note the broadcast's timing coincides with renewed global interest in 20th-century history amid contemporary geopolitical shifts.
CMG stated the initiative will serve multiple audiences: historians studying Asia's wartime legacy, diaspora communities preserving cultural memory, and international viewers seeking insights into China's historical narratives. The military parade component is expected to draw particular attention from defense analysts monitoring regional security dynamics.
A CMG spokesperson emphasized: "This broadcast honors shared human values of peace and cooperation. By using 85 languages – including regional dialects and indigenous tongues – we ensure this crucial history resonates across generations and borders."
