China versus the U.S.: According to the report, 61% of citations of Chinese papers were by Chinese researchers, while only 29% of citations of U.S. papers were by American researchers.

Pretty relevant for anyone who doesn’t read the article.

What language are the Chinese researchers publishing in?

I do see a a fair amountof Chinese researchers publish in Applied Sciences and those are in English. I don't know about other journals like Nature or the paid journals, but yeah at least some are publishing in English.
