Still won't give us the show's name? 
IIRC CBS said in an recent interview that their deal with Netflix still has a few years left.
From previous statements, Netflix have the rights to Discovery for its duration and any spin-offs (eg. Section 31 or a Pike show), but not any unrelated new Trek shows (eg. Picard and Lower Decks).
But if they are all in the Prime Universe then that means they are all related.

What does that even mean?
For Hollywood at the moment, it seems to imply "token Chinese characters + don't offend the Chinese government"
Right. In other news, water is wet.
Hooray!
The UK censor banned The High Ground (TNG) in the 1990s because of dialogue about terrorism leading to Irish reunification. This has since been rescinded. Governments can get really wound up about topics that haven't been properly researched to be 'sensitive'.

Discovery has "international appeal," so it's not a stretch for CBS to assume this Picard show will too.

Discovery is the first time it's being properly distributed globally.
For contractual purposes - The Picard show is unrelated and could be on a different channel.
