Guests attending a welcome banquet exchange ideas during the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in Tianjin on Sunday evening.
\nChinese President Xi Jinping's emphasis on carrying forward the Shanghai Spirit and advancing cooperation at the 25th Meeting of the Council of Heads of State of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in Tianjin will further power the SCO's wheels and help forge a new type of international relations, experts say.
\nIn a keynote speech, Xi hailed the SCO's groundbreaking and historic achievements, highlighting the Shanghai Spirit — a set of guiding principles that emphasizes mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality, consultation, respect for diversity of civilizations, and the pursuit of common development.
\nRabi Hamamsah, head of media exposure at Deraya Speakers in the United Arab Emirates, said the spirit has created a unique framework that sets the SCO apart from other international organizations.
\n"The fact that the SCO has grown into the largest regional organization with 26 countries involved shows that its approach resonates strongly, especially in the Global South," he said.
\n"More and more countries recognize that peace, stability and development can only be achieved through cooperation and dialogue rather than through confrontation."
\nFounded in Shanghai in 2001, the SCO has expanded from six members into a big family of 10 members, two observers and 14 dialogue partners spanning Asia, Europe and Africa.
\nAbdulaziz Alshaabani, a researcher at the Al Riyadh Center for Political and Strategic Studies in Saudi Arabia, said the Shanghai Spirit has served as the cornerstone of the SCO's efficiency and resilience.
\n"Its emphasis on mutual trust, mutual benefit and respect for diversity makes it especially appealing to the Global South, where countries seek partnerships not based on hegemony but on equality and shared growth," he said.
\nXi called on SCO members to stay true to the organization's founding mission and promote its sustained development with greater resolve and more practical measures.
\nKarori Singh, former director and emeritus fellow at the South Asia Study Centre of the University of Rajasthan, India, said the SCO, now the largest regional organization in Eurasia, was founded 24 years ago on the basis of the Shanghai Spirit. Since then, it has steadily expanded its membership and broadened its areas of cooperation.
\nPresident Xi's address reflected a pragmatic approach, outlining the SCO's vision for the next decade, Singh said. He emphasized that the organization is advancing from multilateral dialogue to concrete action aimed at safeguarding regional security, advancing prosperity in Eurasia, and contributing meaningfully to global peace, stability, and the building of a community with shared future for humanity.
\nPeaceful cooperation
\nLawrence Loh, director of the Center for Governance and Sustainability at the National University of Singapore, said the unity demonstrated at the SCO Tianjin Summit signifies fresh hope for a new future of peaceful global cooperation.
\n"President Xi's momentous call for openness in a multipolar world is both pressing and urgent. The world cannot afford to backpedal in its progress due to any country's self-interest," he said.
\nXi also unveiled China's new measures to support the SCO's development and win-win cooperation among members. "We need to better align our development strategies and promote the high-quality implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative," the president said.
\nAlshaabani said Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 and the SCO's development concepts converge on diversification, connectivity and sustainable growth. "The Tianjin summit provides a unique chance for Saudi Arabia to deepen cooperation with SCO countries."
\nXi said SCO members need to enhance mutual understanding and friendship through people-to-people exchanges and cultivate a garden of civilizations in which all cultures flourish in prosperity and harmony.
\nMohammad Ghazal, managing editor of English news at Aletihad News Center in the UAE, said civilizations grow stronger by learning from one another, not by isolating themselves — a principle embodied and advanced by the Shanghai Spirit.
\n"The history of exchange between China and the Arab world shows how dialogue creates prosperity as cooperation dates back to centuries and this, for example, can inspire others today to embrace diversity and build peaceful coexistence," he said.
\nAs the world is faced with mounting security challenges, geopolitical rivalries and economic uncertainties, Ananda Goonatilleke, president of the Sri Lanka-China Friendship Association, said the Tianjin summit stands as a powerful platform for solidarity.
\nHe also welcomed the discussions between China and India during the summit.
\n"The understanding that bilateral differences should not overshadow the greater goal of partnership reflects the wisdom of statesmanship and offers hope for broader regional harmony," he said.

A China Railway Express freight train crosses through Istanbul's Marmaray subsea tunnel on Nov 7, 2019, marking the first time a cargo train from China reached Europe via this route under the Marmara Sea.
\nTürkiye's unique geographic position — connecting Europe, Asia and the Middle East — has established the country as the "nexus of the world". Its strategic location, coupled with a dynamic economy, makes Türkiye a natural partner for China in advancing mutually beneficial cooperation.
\nOver the decades, Türkiye-China relations have evolved into a comprehensive strategic partnership spanning trade, investment, technology, and infrastructure.
\nStrong foundation
\nChina is Türkiye's largest source of imports and a key trading partner. Data from the Turkish Statistical Institute show that their bilateral trade volume reached $48.3 billion in 2024, reflecting mutual development.
\nThe countries' economic complementarity is evident: China supplies machinery, electronics, and industrial inputs, while Türkiye offers food products, chemicals, and manufactured goods.
\nThis partnership is reinforced by an alignment between the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative and Türkiye's Middle Corridor strategy, creating a seamless east-west route that enhances global supply chains.
\nBusiness cooperation
\nAccording to official data from Türkiye, China has invested approximately $1.2 billion in Türkiye since 2002, while Turkish companies have invested more than $300 million in China. Today, more than 1,400 Chinese companies operate in Türkiye across diverse sectors.
\nEnergy and the automotive industry stand out as strategic cooperation areas, reflecting Türkiye's established role as a key supplier to global value chains. Major battery plant projects, including partnerships with Togg, Türkiye's domestic electric vehicle manufacturer, represent landmark investments boosting the country's EV ecosystem and integrating advanced battery technology into European and regional markets.
\nThese are complemented by significant EV manufacturing facilities serving both domestic and European markets, alongside local production plans to meet rising regional demand.
\nNotable Chinese investments span multiple sectors: major research and development centers in Istanbul, driving innovations in AI, cloud, and 5G technologies; manufacturing plants for household appliances, reinforcing Türkiye's role as a global white goods exporter; strategic acquisitions in e-commerce platforms, transforming Türkiye's digital commerce landscape; and key investments in logistics and finance, including port facilities and banking operations.
\nThese investments generate economic value while fostering technology transfer, employment, and sustainable growth, positioning Türkiye as the nexus of the world for Chinese enterprises seeking global expansion.
\nKey sectors
\nInfrastructure, energy, and technology stand out as priority cooperation areas. Chinese companies have invested in major power projects, renewable energy facilities, and transport hubs in Türkiye.
\nAt the same time, Turkish enterprises are exploring opportunities in China's fast-growing consumer and industrial markets.
\nThe synergy between the Middle Corridor and BRI creates unparalleled opportunities in logistics, enabling Türkiye to serve as a hub for goods flowing between Asia, Europe and Africa. This is matched by collaboration in emerging industries such as green energy, fintech, and smart cities.
\nAs both nations pursue sustainable and innovation-driven growth, the scope for cooperation will continue to expand. Türkiye's competitive advantages — strategic location, skilled workforce and diversified economy — align with China's vision of high-quality, outward-looking development.
\nLooking ahead, Türkiye-China relations are poised to deepen, anchored by shared commitments to connectivity, technological advancement, and economic resilience.
\nAt the nexus of the world, Türkiye stands ready to work with China to shape a more integrated, prosperous, and sustainable future for both nations and the broader region.

在系统托盘时钟中显示秒数（耗电更多）
\n\n\n\n是的，明确告诉你了耗电更多，这是一件被微软确认的事情，只不过青小蛙一直不太相信。
\n\n\n\n这可能是由于 CPU 唤醒频繁导致无法进入低功耗，以及需要实时渲染桌面造成的。
\n\n\n\nlttlabs 的测试使用了三台不同类型的笔记本进行了测试，包括高性能游戏本、高效能ARM笔记本及集成显卡轻薄本。
\n\n\n\n在空闲状态下，开启秒数显示后，三台电脑电池续航时间均有减少：
\n\n\n\n高性能游戏本（ASUS ROG）续航从321分钟（5小时21分钟）下降到279分钟（4小时39分钟），差42分钟，约 13％。
\n\n\n\nARM本（Surface Laptop 7）续航从904分钟（15小时4分钟）下降到892分钟（14小时52分钟），减少12分钟，约 1.4%
\n\n\n\n轻薄本（Asus Zenbook 16）续航从654分钟（10小时54分钟）下降到608分钟（10小时8分钟），减少了46分钟，约7％。
\n\n\n\n![\"在](\"https://do-cdn.appinn.com/static3/images/2025/09/Graph_2.avif\" "\\"在")
在“视频播放”场景下，高性能游戏本几乎无变化。
\n\n\n\n而 ARM 本下降最明显，续航从466分钟（7小时46分钟）下降到402分钟（6小时42分钟），差 64 分钟，大约15.9%。
\n\n\n\n轻薄本续航从464分钟（7小时44分钟）略有下降到451分钟（7小时31分钟），小幅减少2.9%。
\n\n\n\n结果显示，显示秒数的确会让部分设备的续航降低，但受使用情境与硬件的影响较大。
\n\n\n\n在时隔1个月后，lttlabs 重新做了测试，这次结果显示开启“显示秒数”甚至出现续航上升，结果与之前完全相反的情况。
\n\n\n\nlttlabs 猜测最核心原因在于现实环境中影响电池续航的变量太多，UI 刷新频率带来的差异会被众多其他因素“淹没”。
\n\n\n\n所以最终取得了有史以来最模棱两可的结果。

维护微软开发者博客“The Old New Thing”的作者 Raymond Chen 说：
\n\n\n\n早期测试版的任务栏时钟确实显示秒数，甚至像某些时钟一样会闪烁冒号。但我们不得不将其移除。
\n\n\n\n为什么？
\n\n\n\n因为闪烁的冒号和不断更新的时间正在破坏我们的基准数字。
\n\n\n\n在只有 4MB 内存（这是 Windows 95 的最低内存要求）的机器上，即使节省 4K 内存也会对基准测试产生明显的影响。通过每秒闪烁一次时钟，这不仅阻止了与文本渲染相关的代码路径被调出，还阻止了任务栏的窗口过程、堆栈和数据的内存以及所有与 Explorer 进程相关的上下文结构的内存被调出。将所有强制持续存在的内存加起来，其总内存量远超 4K。
\n\n\n\n就这样，它诞生了，我们的基准测试数据也提高了。
\n\n\n\n最快的代码就是不运行的代码。
\n\n\n\nRaymond Chen 又回来更新了内容：
\n\n\n\n十多年前，我注意到任务栏时钟的早期测试版显示秒数，有时甚至像某些时钟一样冒号闪烁，但它被删除了，因为闪烁的冒号和更新时间破坏了 Windows 95 的基准数字，因为需要保留与内存中的文本渲染相关的所有代码路径，以及更新时钟的 Explorer 进程中的线程堆栈。
\n\n\n\n尽管现代计算机不像 Windows 95 那样受到严格的内存限制，但任务栏仍然不显示秒数，因为终端服务会有数百个更新时钟，并且即使在单用户系统上，能源效率团队也会对任何运行速度超过每分钟一次的计时器侧目而视。
\n\n\n\n但最终，在 2023 年，任务栏添加了显示秒数的选项。然而，该选项默认处于禁用状态，并会显示“（耗电更多）”警告。它到底耗电多少？
\n\n\n\nTaskbar 团队进行了功耗测试，试图让能源效率团队相信，尽管有额外的成本，但这些额外的成本并不算过高。
\n\n\n\n任务栏团队的一位成员告诉我，他们初步测量显示，Explorer 在默认配置下功耗为 0.417 mW，但如果在任务栏上启用了秒表功能，功耗就会上升到 5.42 mW。这超过了十倍，所以这看起来确实是一个巨大的飞跃。
\n\n\n\n我找不到笔记本电脑屏幕的功耗信息。这个网站给出的16英寸100尼特屏幕的有效功耗范围是200毫瓦到1100毫瓦。我相信这些数字吗？不。我无论如何都会报告这些数字吗？我想我已经报告过了。
\n\n\n\n如果我们接受这些数字，那么额外增加 5 mW 似乎总体上并不算太糟糕¹。最高功耗为 2.5%，最低功耗为 0.05%。这意味着在 10 小时内会损失 3 到 15 分钟的电量。
\n\n\n\n我的意思是，Explorer 在 10 小时内减少 15 分钟的电池续航时间听起来可能不算多，但假设其他 10 个组件也得出同样的结论，那就意味着您损失了超过两个小时的电池续航时间。
\n\n\n\n所以，你会打开Windows 时钟的秒针显示么？

\n\n\n\n早期测试版的任务栏时钟确实显示秒数，甚至像某些时钟一样会闪烁冒号。但我们不得不将其移除。
\n\n\n\n为什么？
\n\n\n\n因为闪烁的冒号和不断更新的时间正在破坏我们的基准数字。
\n\n\n\n在只有 4MB 内存（这是 Windows 95 的最低内存要求）的机器上，即使节省 4K 内存也会对基准测试产生明显的影响。通过每秒闪烁一次时钟，这不仅阻止了与文本渲染相关的代码路径被调出，还阻止了任务栏的窗口过程、堆栈和数据的内存以及所有与 Explorer 进程相关的上下文结构的内存被调出。将所有强制持续存在的内存加起来，其总内存量远超 4K。
\n\n\n\n就这样，它诞生了，我们的基准测试数据也提高了。
\n\n\n\n最快的代码就是不运行的代码。
\n\n\n\nRaymond Chen 又回来更新了内容：
\n\n\n\n十多年前，我注意到任务栏时钟的早期测试版显示秒数，有时甚至像某些时钟一样冒号闪烁，但它被删除了，因为闪烁的冒号和更新时间破坏了 Windows 95 的基准数字，因为需要保留与内存中的文本渲染相关的所有代码路径，以及更新时钟的 Explorer 进程中的线程堆栈。
\n\n\n\n尽管现代计算机不像 Windows 95 那样受到严格的内存限制，但任务栏仍然不显示秒数，因为终端服务会有数百个更新时钟，并且即使在单用户系统上，能源效率团队也会对任何运行速度超过每分钟一次的计时器侧目而视。
\n\n\n\n但最终，在 2023 年，任务栏添加了显示秒数的选项。然而，该选项默认处于禁用状态，并会显示“（耗电更多）”警告。它到底耗电多少？
\n\n\n\nTaskbar 团队进行了功耗测试，试图让能源效率团队相信，尽管有额外的成本，但这些额外的成本并不算过高。
\n\n\n\n任务栏团队的一位成员告诉我，他们初步测量显示，Explorer 在默认配置下功耗为 0.417 mW，但如果在任务栏上启用了秒表功能，功耗就会上升到 5.42 mW。这超过了十倍，所以这看起来确实是一个巨大的飞跃。
\n\n\n\n我找不到笔记本电脑屏幕的功耗信息。这个网站给出的16英寸100尼特屏幕的有效功耗范围是200毫瓦到1100毫瓦。我相信这些数字吗？不。我无论如何都会报告这些数字吗？我想我已经报告过了。
\n\n\n\n如果我们接受这些数字，那么额外增加 5 mW 似乎总体上并不算太糟糕¹。最高功耗为 2.5%，最低功耗为 0.05%。这意味着在 10 小时内会损失 3 到 15 分钟的电量。
\n\n\n\n我的意思是，Explorer 在 10 小时内减少 15 分钟的电池续航时间听起来可能不算多，但假设其他 10 个组件也得出同样的结论，那就意味着您损失了超过两个小时的电池续航时间。
\n\n\n\n所以，你会打开Windows 时钟的秒针显示么？

President Xi Jinping shakes hands with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday during their meeting at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Putin, who participated in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit 2025 held in Tianjin from Sunday to Monday, will also attend events in Beijing on Wednesday commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression(1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War.
\nPresident Xi Jinping expressed on Tuesday Beijing's willingness to step up high-level exchanges with Moscow and ensure the further success of major cooperation projects, saying that China-Russia ties have "become an example of major-country relations".
\nXi made the remarks during his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. At noon, the two leaders had a small tea party and a banquet.
\nWitnessed by the two heads of state, the two sides signed more than 20 bilateral cooperation documents covering areas such as energy, space, artificial intelligence, agriculture, inspection and quarantine, health, scientific research, education and media.
\nPutin is visiting China to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit 2025 as well as commemorations marking the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War.
\nXi, who visited Russia in May,said the two countries' heads of state attending each other's commemorations marking the victory in the World Anti-Fascist War "fully demonstrates their responsibility as major victorious nations of World War II and permanent members of the United Nations Security Council".
\nIt also displays their firm resolve to defend the victorious outcomes of WWII and safeguard a correct historical perspective on WWII, he added.
\nPutin said that under the guidance of the two heads of state,Russia-China ties are highly strategic and at an all-time high.
\nThe two countries have showcased to the world their mutual support and joint efforts in the World Anti-Fascist War, which played a key role in securing victory on the main battlefields of WWII in Europe and the East, as well as their firm stance in jointly defending historical truth and safeguarding the fruits of WWII victory, Putin said.
\nThe two nations' unity and cooperation during the war have also become a solid foundation for the development of Russia-China relations in the new era, he added.
\nIn the latest example of the bilateral ties' continuing growth,the Foreign Ministry announced on Tuesday that China has decided to pilot a visa-free policy for ordinary passport holders from Russia, from Sept 15 this year to Sept 14, 2026.
\n"Russian holders of ordinary passports who come to China for doing business, traveling and sightseeing, visiting relatives and friends, exchange visits, and transit for no more than 30 days can enter the country visa-free," Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said.
\nSun Zhuangzhi, director of the Institute of Russian, Eastern European and Central Asian Studies at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that "the bilateral, all-around cooperation is advancing on a remarkable scale".
\n"The two countries, as guided by head-of-state diplomacy, have achieved a series of remarkable achievements in recent years in practical cooperation, which features a high level, broad coverage and multiple dimensions," he added.
\nOn future bilateral interactions, Xi said that China is ready to strengthen high-level Sino-Russian exchanges, support each other's development and revitalization, and "coordinate positions on issues involving the two countries' core interests and major concerns in a timely manner".
\nThe two sides should leverage major projects to steer their cooperation, develop exemplary cooperation projects, and promote the deep-level integration of interests, he added.
\nPutin said that Russia is willing to maintain strategic coordination with China, continue close high-level exchanges, strengthen practical cooperation in various fields and push for the continued high-level development of bilateral relations.
\nRegarding the just-concluded SCO Summit, Putin said the Global Governance Initiative proposed by Xi at the summit is very timely and necessary and will play an important role in addressing the global governance deficit.

Nikolai Vladimirovich Chuikov, grandson of Marshal Vasily Ivanovich Chuikov of the former Soviet Union, answers questions in Beijing on Tuesday during a group interview at the media center for events commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War.
\nAs China prepares to host world leaders for its V-Day commemorations on Wednesday in Beijing, international figures have hailed the nation's sacrifice in the World Anti-Fascist War, and called for bearing the history in mind and upholding peace in the face of an increasingly fragmented world.
\n"If it weren't for the tremendous sacrifices made by the great Chinese people during the war of resistance against Japanese aggression, it might not have been possible for the Soviet Union to withstand the Nazi invasion. The Chinese people made significant contributions to the final victory in World War II," said Nikolai Vladimirovich Chuikov, a member of the Central Board of the Russia-China Friendship Society.
\nChuikov, who is the grandson of Marshal Vasily Ivanovich Chuikov of the former Soviet Union and head of the Public Commission for International Relations of the Russian Union of Veterans, made the remarks during a group interview in Beijing on Tuesday.
\nHe was joined by other international figures who have connections with foreign friends who made significant contributions to the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45).
\nChuikov said that some people are trying to deny, distort or gloss over the history of WWII, but others should "work together to safeguard the historical truth of WWII and defend the hard-won peace".
\n"We must bear the history in mind to prevent atrocities like the Nanjing Massacre from happening again," he added.
\nSpeaking about Sino-Russian friendship, Chuikov said it is guided by the good relations between President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin. He added that amid increasing instability in the international landscape, Russia and China can work together to build the foundation for global peace.
\nYokichi Kobayashi, son of a Japanese veteran of the Eighth Route Army, Kiyoshi Kobayashi, said that commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory in the war of resistance against Japanese aggression serves as a reminder to never forget history and to cherish peace.
\nYokichi Kobayashi, who has long dedicated himself to promoting peace and anti-war initiatives as well as Sino-Japanese friendship in Japan, said the two countries share a bond spanning thousands of years — a history that should not be forgotten.
\nHowever, that history also includes periods of brutal aggression and victimization, which should not be forgotten either, he said.
\n"The atrocities committed by Japanese imperialists in China deserve to be exposed, reminding us that a nation's reflection on history is far more important than another nation's forgiveness. Only a country that is courageous in its reflection can earn the respect of the world," he added.
\nMichael Crook, chairman of the International Committee for the Promotion of Chinese Industrial Cooperatives, was born in Beijing, and he studied and worked in China for a long time due to his parents' association with the country.
\nRecalling his family's bond with China, Crook said the nation has set an example of how to uphold peace while advancing development.
\n"People suffered in the wars. We must work in solidarity to fight for peace," he said, expressing the hope that China will continue to play a positive role in safeguarding global peace.

\nAs China prepares to host world leaders for its V-Day commemorations on Wednesday in Beijing, international figures have hailed the nation's sacrifice in the World Anti-Fascist War, and called for bearing the history in mind and upholding peace in the face of an increasingly fragmented world.
\n"If it weren't for the tremendous sacrifices made by the great Chinese people during the war of resistance against Japanese aggression, it might not have been possible for the Soviet Union to withstand the Nazi invasion. The Chinese people made significant contributions to the final victory in World War II," said Nikolai Vladimirovich Chuikov, a member of the Central Board of the Russia-China Friendship Society.
\nChuikov, who is the grandson of Marshal Vasily Ivanovich Chuikov of the former Soviet Union and head of the Public Commission for International Relations of the Russian Union of Veterans, made the remarks during a group interview in Beijing on Tuesday.
\nHe was joined by other international figures who have connections with foreign friends who made significant contributions to the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45).
\nChuikov said that some people are trying to deny, distort or gloss over the history of WWII, but others should "work together to safeguard the historical truth of WWII and defend the hard-won peace".
\n"We must bear the history in mind to prevent atrocities like the Nanjing Massacre from happening again," he added.
\nSpeaking about Sino-Russian friendship, Chuikov said it is guided by the good relations between President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin. He added that amid increasing instability in the international landscape, Russia and China can work together to build the foundation for global peace.
\nYokichi Kobayashi, son of a Japanese veteran of the Eighth Route Army, Kiyoshi Kobayashi, said that commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory in the war of resistance against Japanese aggression serves as a reminder to never forget history and to cherish peace.
\nYokichi Kobayashi, who has long dedicated himself to promoting peace and anti-war initiatives as well as Sino-Japanese friendship in Japan, said the two countries share a bond spanning thousands of years — a history that should not be forgotten.
\nHowever, that history also includes periods of brutal aggression and victimization, which should not be forgotten either, he said.
\n"The atrocities committed by Japanese imperialists in China deserve to be exposed, reminding us that a nation's reflection on history is far more important than another nation's forgiveness. Only a country that is courageous in its reflection can earn the respect of the world," he added.
\nMichael Crook, chairman of the International Committee for the Promotion of Chinese Industrial Cooperatives, was born in Beijing, and he studied and worked in China for a long time due to his parents' association with the country.
\nRecalling his family's bond with China, Crook said the nation has set an example of how to uphold peace while advancing development.
\n"People suffered in the wars. We must work in solidarity to fight for peace," he said, expressing the hope that China will continue to play a positive role in safeguarding global peace.

Chinese peacekeepers are awarded UN peace medals in Wau, South Sudan, on Oct 29 for their contribution to the African country's peace process.
\nChinese peacekeeper Yang Huanhuan will never forget the note she left for a mother in the Democratic Republic of Congo written in Swahili: "Florence, don't cry, be strong! We stand with you!"
\nYang served as a military observer in the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in DR Congo from 2018 to 2019. She was also among the first female military observers sent by China.
\nDuring her frequent patrols, she met Florence, a single mother of three children, whose house had been destroyed in a fire.
\nFlorence's plight deeply saddened Yang, so she gave her $50 along with the note, placed in an envelope. She also gave the mother clothes and shoes, in the hope of cheering her up.
\n"The $50 was the equivalent of Florence's monthly salary," said Yang, who is now a PhD student on the Nanjing campus of the National University of Defense Technology.
\nTo Yang's relief, Florence, who had no mobile phone and couldn't speak English, managed to send a message through someone, saying that she had rebuilt her home to start a new life and would never forget the help of the Chinese military observer. The story was featured in an article published on the UN's peacekeeping website.
\nLike Yang, Wu Feng, 42, an instructor at the Shijiazhuang campus of the Army Engineering University of the People's Liberation Army, also had unforgettable experiences as a military observer with a UN Mission in South Sudan from 2019 to 2020.
\n"As a peacekeeper, the role of a military observer is often romanticized by the public. But in reality, the work is full of thrills and challenges," he said, noting that UN missions set high standards for military observers.
\n"The main duties of military observers include observation, investigation, verification, liaison and reporting, and they also assist NGOs in humanitarian aid," he said.
\nDuring missions, observers must strictly adhere to impartiality, carry no weapons and operate independently, not as part of any peacekeeping unit, he added.
\n"Observers are both faithful recorders of conflicts and crucial promoters of peace processes," Wu said while pointing out an observer's work is highly demanding, requiring 24/7 readiness and vigilance.
\nHis observer team conducted daily patrols in Wau, South Sudan, with two to four short-duration patrols every week covering 50 to 200 kilometers, and two to three long-duration patrols monthly, lasting six to seven days with field camping.
\nObservers also undertook monthly helicopter patrols, two to four convoy escort missions and accompanied engineering units for road surveys, he said.
\nKey force in missions
\nIn South Sudan, Wu witnessed the Chinese peacekeeping engineering detachment constructing the Sopo Bridge, reinforcing his belief that Chinese peacekeepers have become a key force in UN missions through their expertise.
\nIn April 2020, the detachment set out from their camp, braving the risks of COVID-19 infection and the scorching heat, to reach the Sopo River, 254 kilometers away. The journey took three days.
\n"Upon arrival, the engineering unit immediately began work, digging up silt, laying foundations and installing culverts. After 20 days of relentless effort, the 68-meter-long and 8-meter-wide bridge was completed," Wu said.
\nThe bridge became a crucial link for the Raja region, greatly helping locals and supporting UN humanitarian efforts, he said.
\n"The secret to Chinese peacekeepers becoming a key force lies in three words: professionalism, dedication and sacrifice," the former peacekeeper said, stressing that Chinese peacekeepers confidently build trust with sincerity and strength.
\nGiven the harsh local living conditions and complex political situations, Chinese peacekeepers realize the preciousness of peace, and make contributions to improve local people's lives in their own ways.
\n"Coming from the world's largest developing country to the war-torn DR Congo presented obvious challenges," said Yang, who noted that "as a soldier, I am prepared for all kinds of hardships".
\nIn her mission areas, there was no safe drinking water — or even water for washing. "We had to go 5 km away to get it," she said.
\nA question she often asked herself was: "How can the villagers be actually lifted from poverty to prosperity?"
\nFor Yang, the answer was clear — knowledge can change the course of people's lives.
\nShe stopped taking candies and biscuits to local children when patrolling, and started bringing books, notebooks, pens and soccer balls, hoping to spark their interest in learning.
\n"Knowledge can indeed change a person's fate, and sports can make one feel stronger and sturdier," Yang told the local children. "I could tell from their faces. They were more curious, with a longing for happiness," she said.
\nAs military observers, Yang and her peers compiled the firsthand information gathered during their patrols, and reported it to relevant departments daily. "It makes me proud to see how our efforts can help make some difference in the country," she said.
\nLandmark anniversary
\nThis year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War, and is also the 35th anniversary of China's participation in UN peacekeeping operations.
\nIn 1990, China first took part in UN peacekeeping operations by sending five military observers to Egypt and Syria for missions organized by the UN Truce Supervision Organization, which is headquartered in Jerusalem.
\nSince then, the Chinese military has sent over 50,000 personnel to participate in UN peacekeeping operations in more than 20 countries and regions, including the DR Congo, Lebanon, and South Sudan, according to the Ministry of National Defense. A total of 17 Chinese peacekeepers have paid the ultimate price on these missions.
\nChina is currently the second-largest contributor to the UN peacekeeping budget. Among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, it is the top contributor of peacekeepers, with nearly 2,000 Chinese troops serving in six peacekeeping missions.
\nAt the UN peacekeeping summit in 2015, President Xi Jinping announced six measures that China would take to support these operations. All six measures have been fully implemented, including establishing a standby peacekeeping force of 8,000 troops, offering 20 training programs to over 1,500 peacekeepers from more than 60 countries, and sending 25 rotations of engineering and medical units, totaling about 7,000 troops, to missions in Africa and Asia.
\nAtia Ali Kazmi, director for Global and Regional Studies at the Institute for Strategic Studies, Research and Analysis in Pakistan, said that the PLA brings several distinct advantages to UN peacekeeping. Its logistics strength, rapid deployment capabilities and disciplined force structure make the PLA an efficient contributor and operator in complex environments, she added.
\n"China's principled commitment to sovereignty, noninterference, and multilateralism lends credibility and balance to UN operations, especially in politically sensitive missions," she said.
\nThe PLA's growing investment in medical, engineering, and explosives-handling support, further enhances its peacekeeping value compared with traditional Western contributors, she added.
\nJoining parade
\nOn Wednesday, China's peacekeepers will take part in the grand military parade in Beijing to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory in the war against Japanese aggression and fascism.
\nIt marks the second time Chinese peacekeepers have participated in such a grand parade. In 2019, they joined the parade to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
\nWu Zeke, deputy director of the Office of the Leading Group for the Military Parade and a senior officer of the Joint Staff Department of the Central Military Commission, said at a briefing in August that all the participating peacekeepers had undertaken international peacekeeping missions and come from engineering and infantry units.
\n"This arrangement not only highlights the solemn commemoration of the victory, but also demonstrates our commitment to fulfilling international obligations and maintaining world peace," he said.
\nOver the past 35 years, Chinese peacekeeping forces have gradually moved toward a scientific and institutionalized path, forming principles, policies, and action guidelines with Chinese characteristics that meet international standards, Wu said.
\nChinese peacekeeping forces have expanded from a single service branch to multiple military branches, transitioned from support and security tasks to comprehensive multifunctional roles, and extended their mission objectives from ceasefire monitoring to lasting peace, making significant contributions to world peace, he said.
\nChina's military has demonstrated its steadfast support for multilateralism and the purposes and principles of the UN Charter through practical actions, according to Wu.
\nZhang Junshe, a former researcher at the PLA Naval Research Academy, said that maintaining world peace is the duty of China as a major responsible country.
\n"At the same time, the stronger China becomes, the more public security products the Chinese military can provide to the international community," he said. "Therefore, the growth of China's military power is increasing the force for maintaining peace in the world, and is not a threat."
\nSince 2015, the MND's Peacekeeping Affairs Center has conducted 25 international training programs, training more than 1,600 peacekeepers from over 70 countries, ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang said in a news briefing in July.

President Xi Jinping shakes hands with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday during their meeting at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Putin, who participated in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit 2025 held in Tianjin from Sunday to Monday, will also attend events in Beijing on Wednesday commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War.

\nAs China prepares to host world leaders for its V-Day commemorations on Wednesday in Beijing, international figures have hailed the nation's sacrifice in the World Anti-Fascist War, and called for bearing the history in mind and upholding peace in the face of an increasingly fragmented world.
\n"If it weren't for the tremendous sacrifices made by the great Chinese people during the war of resistance against Japanese aggression, it might not have been possible for the Soviet Union to withstand the Nazi invasion. The Chinese people made significant contributions to the final victory in World War II," said Nikolai Vladimirovich Chuikov, a member of the Central Board of the Russia-China Friendship Society.
\nChuikov, who is the grandson of Marshal Vasily Ivanovich Chuikov of the former Soviet Union and head of the Public Commission for International Relations of the Russian Union of Veterans, made the remarks during a group interview in Beijing on Tuesday.
\nHe was joined by other international figures who have connections with foreign friends who made significant contributions to the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45).
\nChuikov said that some people are trying to deny, distort or gloss over the history of WWII, but others should "work together to safeguard the historical truth of WWII and defend the hard-won peace".
\n"We must bear the history in mind to prevent atrocities like the Nanjing Massacre from happening again," he added.
\nSpeaking about Sino-Russian friendship, Chuikov said it is guided by the good relations between President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin. He added that amid increasing instability in the international landscape, Russia and China can work together to build the foundation for global peace.
\nYokichi Kobayashi, son of a Japanese veteran of the Eighth Route Army, Kiyoshi Kobayashi, said that commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory in the war of resistance against Japanese aggression serves as a reminder to never forget history and to cherish peace.
\nYokichi Kobayashi, who has long dedicated himself to promoting peace and anti-war initiatives as well as Sino-Japanese friendship in Japan, said the two countries share a bond spanning thousands of years — a history that should not be forgotten.
\nHowever, that history also includes periods of brutal aggression and victimization, which should not be forgotten either, he said.
\n"The atrocities committed by Japanese imperialists in China deserve to be exposed, reminding us that a nation's reflection on history is far more important than another nation's forgiveness. Only a country that is courageous in its reflection can earn the respect of the world," he added.
\nMichael Crook, chairman of the International Committee for the Promotion of Chinese Industrial Cooperatives, was born in Beijing, and he studied and worked in China for a long time due to his parents' association with the country.
\nRecalling his family's bond with China, Crook said the nation has set an example of how to uphold peace while advancing development.
\n"People suffered in the wars. We must work in solidarity to fight for peace," he said, expressing the hope that China will continue to play a positive role in safeguarding global peace.
\nJean-Louis Bussiere, a renowned French cardiologist, is the son of Jean Jerome Augustin Bussiere, who practiced medicine in China from 1913 to 1954 and saved many lives. During the war of resistance against Japanese aggression, Jean Jerome Augustin Bussiere risked his life to establish "the hump route by bike" to secretly transport medicines for the Eighth Route Army.
\n"Through his righteous actions, my father further enriched the special relationship between China and France," Jean-Louis Bussiere said. "As we reflect on the significance of this period of history, we should advocate for respecting cultural differences and diversity to enhance solidarity and cooperation among the peoples of different nations."

\nSentries of Chinese peacekeeping forces monitor the surroundings at the camp in Lebanon on Oct 14, 2024.
\nChinese peacekeepers are awarded UN peace medals in Wau, South Sudan, on Oct 29 for their contribution to the African country's peace process.
\nChinese peacekeeper Yang Huanhuan will never forget the note she left for a mother in the Democratic Republic of Congo written in Swahili: "Florence, don't cry, be strong! We stand with you!"
\nYang served as a military observer in the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in DR Congo from 2018 to 2019. She was also among the first female military observers sent by China.
\nDuring her frequent patrols, she met Florence, a single mother of three children, whose house had been destroyed in a fire.
\nFlorence's plight deeply saddened Yang, so she gave her $50 along with the note, placed in an envelope. She also gave the mother clothes and shoes, in the hope of cheering her up.
\n"The $50 was the equivalent of Florence's monthly salary," said Yang, who is now a PhD student on the Nanjing campus of the National University of Defense Technology.
\nTo Yang's relief, Florence, who had no mobile phone and couldn't speak English, managed to send a message through someone, saying that she had rebuilt her home to start a new life and would never forget the help of the Chinese military observer. The story was featured in an article published on the UN's peacekeeping website.
\nLike Yang, Wu Feng, 42, an instructor at the Shijiazhuang campus of the Army Engineering University of the People's Liberation Army, also had unforgettable experiences as a military observer with a UN Mission in South Sudan from 2019 to 2020.
\n"As a peacekeeper, the role of a military observer is often romanticized by the public. But in reality, the work is full of thrills and challenges," he said, noting that UN missions set high standards for military observers.
\n"The main duties of military observers include observation, investigation, verification, liaison and reporting, and they also assist NGOs in humanitarian aid," he said.
\nDuring missions, observers must strictly adhere to impartiality, carry no weapons and operate independently, not as part of any peacekeeping unit, he added.
\n"Observers are both faithful recorders of conflicts and crucial promoters of peace processes," Wu said while pointing out an observer's work is highly demanding, requiring 24/7 readiness and vigilance.
\nHis observer team conducted daily patrols in Wau, South Sudan, with two to four short-duration patrols every week covering 50 to 200 kilometers, and two to three long-duration patrols monthly, lasting six to seven days with field camping.
\nObservers also undertook monthly helicopter patrols, two to four convoy escort missions and accompanied engineering units for road surveys, he said.
\nKey force in missions
\nIn South Sudan, Wu witnessed the Chinese peacekeeping engineering detachment constructing the Sopo Bridge, reinforcing his belief that Chinese peacekeepers have become a key force in UN missions through their expertise.
\nIn April 2020, the detachment set out from their camp, braving the risks of COVID-19 infection and the scorching heat, to reach the Sopo River, 254 kilometers away. The journey took three days.
\n"Upon arrival, the engineering unit immediately began work, digging up silt, laying foundations and installing culverts. After 20 days of relentless effort, the 68-meter-long and 8-meter-wide bridge was completed," Wu said.
\nThe bridge became a crucial link for the Raja region, greatly helping locals and supporting UN humanitarian efforts, he said.
\n"The secret to Chinese peacekeepers becoming a key force lies in three words: professionalism, dedication and sacrifice," the former peacekeeper said, stressing that Chinese peacekeepers confidently build trust with sincerity and strength.
\nGiven the harsh local living conditions and complex political situations, Chinese peacekeepers realize the preciousness of peace, and make contributions to improve local people's lives in their own ways.
\n"Coming from the world's largest developing country to the war-torn DR Congo presented obvious challenges," said Yang, who noted that "as a soldier, I am prepared for all kinds of hardships".
\nIn her mission areas, there was no safe drinking water — or even water for washing. "We had to go 5 km away to get it," she said.
\nA question she often asked herself was: "How can the villagers be actually lifted from poverty to prosperity?"
\nFor Yang, the answer was clear — knowledge can change the course of people's lives.
\nShe stopped taking candies and biscuits to local children when patrolling, and started bringing books, notebooks, pens and soccer balls, hoping to spark their interest in learning.
\n"Knowledge can indeed change a person's fate, and sports can make one feel stronger and sturdier," Yang told the local children. "I could tell from their faces. They were more curious, with a longing for happiness," she said.
\nAs military observers, Yang and her peers compiled the firsthand information gathered during their patrols, and reported it to relevant departments daily. "It makes me proud to see how our efforts can help make some difference in the country," she said.
\nLandmark anniversary
\nThis year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War, and is also the 35th anniversary of China's participation in UN peacekeeping operations.
\nIn 1990, China first took part in UN peacekeeping operations by sending five military observers to Egypt and Syria for missions organized by the UN Truce Supervision Organization, which is headquartered in Jerusalem.
\nSince then, the Chinese military has sent over 50,000 personnel to participate in UN peacekeeping operations in more than 20 countries and regions, including the DR Congo, Lebanon, and South Sudan, according to the Ministry of National Defense. A total of 17 Chinese peacekeepers have paid the ultimate price on these missions.
\nChina is currently the second-largest contributor to the UN peacekeeping budget. Among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, it is the top contributor of peacekeepers, with nearly 2,000 Chinese troops serving in six peacekeeping missions.
\nAt the UN peacekeeping summit in 2015, President Xi Jinping announced six measures that China would take to support these operations. All six measures have been fully implemented, including establishing a standby peacekeeping force of 8,000 troops, offering 20 training programs to over 1,500 peacekeepers from more than 60 countries, and sending 25 rotations of engineering and medical units, totaling about 7,000 troops, to missions in Africa and Asia.
\nAtia Ali Kazmi, director for Global and Regional Studies at the Institute for Strategic Studies, Research and Analysis in Pakistan, said that the PLA brings several distinct advantages to UN peacekeeping. Its logistics strength, rapid deployment capabilities and disciplined force structure make the PLA an efficient contributor and operator in complex environments, she added.
\n"China's principled commitment to sovereignty, noninterference, and multilateralism lends credibility and balance to UN operations, especially in politically sensitive missions," she said.
\nThe PLA's growing investment in medical, engineering, and explosives-handling support, further enhances its peacekeeping value compared with traditional Western contributors, she added.
\nJoining parade
\nOn Wednesday, China's peacekeepers will take part in the grand military parade in Beijing to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory in the war against Japanese aggression and fascism.
\nIt marks the second time Chinese peacekeepers have participated in such a grand parade. In 2019, they joined the parade to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
\nWu Zeke, deputy director of the Office of the Leading Group for the Military Parade and a senior officer of the Joint Staff Department of the Central Military Commission, said at a briefing in August that all the participating peacekeepers had undertaken international peacekeeping missions and come from engineering and infantry units.
\n"This arrangement not only highlights the solemn commemoration of the victory, but also demonstrates our commitment to fulfilling international obligations and maintaining world peace," he said.
\nOver the past 35 years, Chinese peacekeeping forces have gradually moved toward a scientific and institutionalized path, forming principles, policies, and action guidelines with Chinese characteristics that meet international standards, Wu said.
\nChinese peacekeeping forces have expanded from a single service branch to multiple military branches, transitioned from support and security tasks to comprehensive multifunctional roles, and extended their mission objectives from ceasefire monitoring to lasting peace, making significant contributions to world peace, he said.
\nChina's military has demonstrated its steadfast support for multilateralism and the purposes and principles of the UN Charter through practical actions, according to Wu.
\nZhang Junshe, a former researcher at the PLA Naval Research Academy, said that maintaining world peace is the duty of China as a major responsible country.
\n"At the same time, the stronger China becomes, the more public security products the Chinese military can provide to the international community," he said. "Therefore, the growth of China's military power is increasing the force for maintaining peace in the world, and is not a threat."
\nSince 2015, the MND's Peacekeeping Affairs Center has conducted 25 international training programs, training more than 1,600 peacekeepers from over 70 countries, ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang said in a news briefing in July.

\nThe Chinese president presented the initiative on Monday at the "Shanghai Cooperation Organization Plus" Meeting in Tianjin. The initiative, focusing on the direction, principles and path for reforming the global governance system and institutions, was proposed as the United Nations marks its 80th founding anniversary this year.
\nUN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the Global Governance Initiative "is anchored in multilateralism and underscores the importance of safeguarding the international system with the UN at its core and the international order underpinned by international law".
\n"We need principled leadership to strengthen multilateralism, uphold the rule of law, and deliver for people — as reflected in the Pact for the Future," Guterres said at the SCO Plus Meeting.
\nThe Pact for the Future, adopted by world leaders at the UN's Summit of the Future in September last year, is a landmark declaration pledging concrete actions toward a safer, more peaceful, sustainable and inclusive world.
\nAccording to a statement released by the Kremlin, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the meeting on Monday that Russia supports the initiative and "is eager to engage in a substantive discussion of the proposals presented by our Chinese friends".
\n"We have given careful consideration to the proposals put forward by President Xi Jinping for establishing a more effective and functional system of global governance. Such efforts are particularly relevant at a time when certain countries continue to pursue dictatorial practices in international affairs," Putin said.
\nAccording to the Concept Paper on the GGI released by China's Foreign Ministry, the initiative does not seek to overturn the existing international order or create another framework, but rather to make existing institutions more effective, adaptable and capable of responding to global challenges and serving the interests of all countries, particularly developing ones.
\nPrime Minister of Nepal KP Sharma Oli also highlighted during the SCO Plus Meeting the need to make the global governance system more effective and efficient by placing the UN at its core.
\n"In this context, the Global Governance Initiative proposed by China would help strengthen the multilateral system by making it more just, inclusive and equitable for a community with a shared future for humanity," he said.
\nMalaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim wrote in a social media post that Malaysia fully supports the initiative, which he said is based on "justice, compassion, humanity and cooperation, with multilateralism at its core".
\n"Malaysia steadfastly supports the Global Governance Initiative and urges that it be strengthened with greater determination to eliminate any form of imperialism, colonialism and oppression," he said in the post.

\n", + "content": "The Global Governance Initiative proposed by President Xi Jinping has drawn widespread and strong endorsement from world leaders, who described it as both timely and essential for building a more just and equitable international order.
\nThe Chinese president presented the initiative on Monday at the "Shanghai Cooperation Organization Plus" Meeting in Tianjin. The initiative, focusing on the direction, principles and path for reforming the global governance system and institutions, was proposed as the United Nations marks its 80th founding anniversary this year.
\nUN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the Global Governance Initiative "is anchored in multilateralism and underscores the importance of safeguarding the international system with the UN at its core and the international order underpinned by international law".
\n"We need principled leadership to strengthen multilateralism, uphold the rule of law, and deliver for people — as reflected in the Pact for the Future," Guterres said at the SCO Plus Meeting.
\nThe Pact for the Future, adopted by world leaders at the UN's Summit of the Future in September last year, is a landmark declaration pledging concrete actions toward a safer, more peaceful, sustainable and inclusive world.
\nAccording to a statement released by the Kremlin, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the meeting on Monday that Russia supports the initiative and "is eager to engage in a substantive discussion of the proposals presented by our Chinese friends".
\n"We have given careful consideration to the proposals put forward by President Xi Jinping for establishing a more effective and functional system of global governance. Such efforts are particularly relevant at a time when certain countries continue to pursue dictatorial practices in international affairs," Putin said.
\nAccording to the Concept Paper on the GGI released by China's Foreign Ministry, the initiative does not seek to overturn the existing international order or create another framework, but rather to make existing institutions more effective, adaptable and capable of responding to global challenges and serving the interests of all countries, particularly developing ones.
\nPrime Minister of Nepal KP Sharma Oli also highlighted during the SCO Plus Meeting the need to make the global governance system more effective and efficient by placing the UN at its core.
\n"In this context, the Global Governance Initiative proposed by China would help strengthen the multilateral system by making it more just, inclusive and equitable for a community with a shared future for humanity," he said.
\nMalaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim wrote in a social media post that Malaysia fully supports the initiative, which he said is based on "justice, compassion, humanity and cooperation, with multilateralism at its core".
\n"Malaysia steadfastly supports the Global Governance Initiative and urges that it be strengthened with greater determination to eliminate any form of imperialism, colonialism and oppression," he said in the post.
\nCuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel, who is also first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba, wrote in a social media post that his country supports the GGI, as "it will contribute to the reform of the global governance system, in order to ensure the construction of a community with a shared future".

\nThe international symposium on the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War drew more than 150 participants, including over 30 scholars and experts from countries such as Russia, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Greece, the United States, Brazil, Japan and Nigeria.
\n"The struggle of the Chinese people undermined Japan's invasion plans and was a crucial part of World War II," said Dmitrii Novikov, deputy chairman of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Russia.
\nGao Xiang, president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said China was the first to expose the aggressive nature of fascism and, through national sacrifice, "raised the banner of the ground forces in the World Anti-Fascist War".
\nQu Qingshan, president of the Institute of Party History and Literature of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said Japan's militaristic invasion of Northeast China on Sept 18, 1931, marked the beginning of the war of resistance and also the start of the World Anti-Fascist War.
\n"The Communist Party of China was not only dedicated to promoting the establishment of a domestic united front against Japanese aggression, but also had a broad strategic vision to actively work toward creating a worldwide united front against fascism," Gao said.
\nGeorgios Katrougkalos, former foreign minister of Greece, highlighted the deaths of 35 million Chinese people during the war, noting the extraordinary importance the Chinese people attach to their sacrifices.
\nWang Jianlang, president of the Chinese Society for the History of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, said the war was fought not only for national independence, but also to maintain world peace.
\n"The history underscores the importance of building a community with a shared future for humanity and strengthening international cooperation across differences while opposing unilateralism and hegemony," Wang said.
\nNovikov said that while the West justifies aggression and sanctions today, most countries support the central role of the United Nations in security and development. He added that new horizons for harmonious cooperation among civilizations have opened as more regions embrace the concept of a community with a shared future for humanity.
\nLing Huanxin, general and political commissar from the People's Liberation Army's Academy of Military Science, said the postwar international order should be strengthened and developed based on the interests of all humanity, including the voices of the Global South.
\nEhizuelen Michael Mitchell Omoruyi, a Nigerian scholar, said the Chinese victory signifies more than resistance.
\n"It also represents hope for other developing countries, as China's path shows that peace and development are inseparable," he said.
\nCiting the inclusive progress of the Belt and Road Initiative, Katrougkalos said peace is more sustainable when underpinned by economic opportunity and development.
\n"Peace is not merely the absence of war; it is the presence of justice, equality and mutual respect," he said.

\nThe V-Day military procession, scheduled to start at 9 am in Tian'anmen Square, will feature a march-past of troops involving 45 formations and echelons. A 360-member delegation from the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, led by Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu, will attend.
\nAmong the delegates is Hong Kong lawmaker Priscilla Leung Mei-fun. She said the streets of Beijing are adorned with beautiful decorations, which enhance the commemorative atmosphere. National security is vital for development, she said, adding that a robust military protects China from the threat of war.
\nLeung said that Chinese people cherish peace because they have experienced the hardships of war, adding that she is confident that by strengthening its military prowess, China will make substantial contributions to global peace.
\nAngus Ng Hok-ming, chairman of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Youth Association who is also part of the delegation, said he believes the magnificence of the parade will fill him with national pride. He said the younger generation should perform their duties to the country and pledged to share his insights with peers back in Hong Kong, adding that he hopes the nation's thriving growth will motivate more young people to contribute to national development.
\nCelebratory events, exhibitions and seminars are taking place across Hong Kong to mark the victory in the war against Japanese aggression, and to pay tribute to martyrs and highlight the nation's progress.
\nSpeed skater Sidney Chu, 25, said he is keen to watch the parade on TV. He said that the event will not only showcase the nation's achievements, but will also underscore its commitment to peace and security.
\nChu said he believes that the young generation, including athletes like himself, will draw inspiration from the nation's progress and pursue excellence in their fields with confidence, thereby adding to the nation's prestige.
\nChoi Kwok-hung, a 61-year-old property management professional, made a long trip from his home in Tin Shui Wai to the Hong Kong Museum of the War of Resistance and Coastal Defence on Tuesday to visit an exhibition focused on the history of resistance in Guangdong province and Hong Kong during wartime.
\nThe exhibition is divided into three sections, detailing the fall of Guangdong and Hong Kong, the valiant resistance in these regions and the triumph in the war of resistance. It also features around 40 wartime artifacts, including silver rings awarded to people who served in the Zhongshan People's Anti-Japanese Volunteer Battalion in November 1944, as well as a book authored by renowned Chinese writer Guo Moruo, titled Understanding the Total War of Resistance — one of Guangzhou's representative anti-war cultural works.
\nAn avid history buff since his school days — especially in Chinese history — Choi has been eagerly anticipating the parade. He stressed the importance of observing the latest military technology and of understanding the deeper significance it holds as a demonstration of the nation's capacity for self-defense.
\nRetired educator Iris Leung, who had previously visited the museum, said she returned especially to see this exhibition. Leung said she plans to participate in the city's commemorative event at the Hong Kong City Hall Memorial Garden on Wednesday morning and then watch the parade on TV at home.
\nLeung said she hopes the various events can provide young people with insights into China's history and help them understand how their ancestors bravely faced adversity and made many sacrifices to protect the nation.

\nShanghai East Hospital said Friday that a patient from Hainan province has become the latest beneficiary of a spinal endoscopic technology known as uni-port bichannel dual-media, or UBD, which reduces incisions from about 20 centimeters to 1 cm.
\nThe innovative procedure, developed by Professor He Shisheng of the hospital's minimally invasive spine center, represents a major milestone in spinal operations, the hospital said. The technology has secured 40 patents after a decade of research, according to the hospital affiliated with Tongji University.
\nWhile traditional open surgeries require incisions of roughly 20 cm, UBD limits them to about 1 cm, offering significant benefits for patients with complex spinal conditions, the hospital said. The technology uses dual channels — one providing a high-definition visual field and the other allowing precise operation in the affected area.
\nThe latest patient, a 43-year-old man from Hainan province, sought treatment in Shanghai after months of persistent back and leg pain that made walking difficult. His symptoms began as soreness after activity but worsened to the point that he had to stop walking every few dozen meters.
\nLocal hospitals diagnosed him with high-grade lumbar disc herniation with calcification and severe spinal canal stenosis, a complex and dangerous condition that could lead to paralysis if aggravated. Several hospitals recommended traditional surgery, which involves significant trauma and poses risks for heavy bleeding and infection.
\nAfter learning about He's UBD technology, the patient traveled to Shanghai for treatment.
\nIn a surgical space measured in millimeters, doctors avoided critical nerves and blood vessels while removing calcified disc tissue. The patient's surgery lasted about an hour, and he was able to get out of bed independently the same day.
\n"Minimally invasive spinal surgery in China has transitioned from importing experience from abroad to achieving independent innovation at a rapid pace over the past decade," He said.
\nThe professor said the dual-channel design is key, forming a V-shaped angle to ensure full visibility throughout the surgery and prevent instruments and mirrors from colliding. The specialized optical endoscope is just 2.7 millimeters thick, a significant breakthrough in craftsmanship, he added. These innovations have been patented.
\nSince being introduced in China in 2021, UBD technology has been used in about 100 hospitals nationwide, benefiting nearly 4,000 patients, according to He.
\nIn 2024, the technology was adopted at a leading spine specialty hospital in Japan, where about 20 patients have been treated with it. International training centers have also been established in Japan and Thailand, drawing spinal surgeons from Russia, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and India to observe and learn the procedure.
\n"Many of the experts are planning to adopt UBD technology. The registration of the relevant instruments is currently underway both domestically and internationally," He said. "I hope this original technology from China will be promoted globally, benefiting patients worldwide."

\nThe guideline — jointly released by the ministry and five other departments, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Transport and the General Administration of Customs — calls for stricter port state controls in line with international rules.
\nIt urges authorities nationwide to strengthen monitoring of foreign fishing vessels entering Chinese ports, as the country is committed to the Agreement on Port State Measures to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing — a United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization treaty regarded as the most important global instrument against illegal fishing.

\nWhile highlighting "zero tolerance" toward illegal fishing, the guideline also requires greater efforts to protect marine resources and promote sustainable use.

\nThe release of the guideline provides strong institutional support for implementing the agreement, the ministry said.
\nLuo Yi, vice-president of Shanghai Ocean University, said the agreement is meant to block illegally caught fish from entering domestic and international markets through ports.

\nChina-Kazakhstan trade is expected to see robust growth over the next five years, after bilateral trade hit a record high in 2024, setting the stage for further expansion in energy, agriculture, transport and emerging industries, said Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev on Tuesday.
\nSpeaking at the eighth meeting of the China-Kazakhstan Entrepreneurs Committee in Beijing, Tokayev said the goal is to further expand trade over the next five years, with both countries having the capacity to achieve such an objective.
\nChina-Kazakhstan bilateral trade value grew 6.8 percent year-on-year to $43.82 billion last year, China's General Administration of Customs said.
\nCrude oil, natural gas, minerals and agricultural products constitute Kazakhstan's main shipments to China. China exports mainly manufacturing equipment, trains, steel, vehicles, electronics, textiles, garments and household appliances to Kazakhstan.
\nEconomic and trade relations between China and Kazakhstan are expected to broaden in the coming years, underpinned by cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative aimed at enhancing regional connectivity and advancing projects in energy, logistics and agriculture, said Ren Hongbin, chairman of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.
\nTo translate such prospects into tangible outcomes, businesses from China and Kazakhstan signed more than 70 agreements worth $15 billion across a range of industries at the committee's eighth meeting.
\nChina has invested $27 billion in Kazakhstan's economy, with over 6,000 businesses involving Chinese capital, ranging from State-owned enterprises such as China National Petroleum Corp to technology groups like Huawei, according to information released by the Kazakh government.
\nMarket watchers and exporters said that amid growing pressure in the global economy, cooperation between China and Kazakhstan has not only helped stabilize Eurasian industrial links and keep China-Europe freight train services running smoothly, but also contributed to global energy security.
\nWith improved connectivity through projects such as the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route and newly built roads, the two countries still have ample room to further align their development strategies, said Chen Jianwei, a researcher at the University of International Business and Economics' Academy of China Open Economy Studies in Beijing.
\nThe TITR is a rail freight corridor linking China and the European Union through Central Asia, the Caucasus, Turkiye and Eastern Europe, said the Tokyo-based Asian Development Bank Institute.
\n"They are also exploring new areas of cooperation, particularly in the trade of industrial goods, artificial intelligence, infrastructure and green energy development. They will provide fresh momentum for bilateral economic ties," said Chen.
\nAfter hosting a major import-export exhibition in Astana in June, Jiangsu SOHO Holdings Group Co, a State-owned enterprise based in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, said the three-day event attracted more than 5,000 business participants and generated deals worth over 800 million yuan ($111.93 million). The company plans to hold additional trade fairs in both China and Kazakhstan in the coming years, according to Nanjing Customs.
\nWei Qingwen, president of the group's technology branch, said his unit has established a physical platform in Nanjing and is promoting foreign trade with Kazakhstan and other Central Asian countries in sectors such as agricultural products, mineral resources and automobiles.
\nNingbo Kingbird Power Tools Co, a manufacturer of power tools and small household appliances in Ningbo, Zhejiang province, saw its exports to Kazakhstan reach 23 million yuan in the first seven months, up more than 100 percent year-on-year, said Ningbo Customs.
\nHu Yongbin, a manager at the company's foreign trade unit, said the surge was mainly driven by Kazakhstan's rising demand for affordable and durable household products, as well as smoother logistics channels under the BRI.
\n"More Kazakh distributors are turning to Chinese suppliers like us because of the combination of cost-effectiveness and quick delivery," Hu said.

\nChina launched an energy cooperation platform within Shanghai Cooperation Organization member states in Beijing on Tuesday, signaling a major push to deepen collaboration on energy and drive green transition across the region.
\nThe diverse resources, markets, and technologies within SCO countries, particularly the abundance of renewable energy resources, create significant opportunities and a promising outlook for collaboration in the renewable energy sector, said Wang Hongzhi, head of the National Energy Administration.
\n"Energy cooperation is a vital component of practical regional collaboration," he said.
\n"China is committed to collaborating with SCO nations on long-term, sustainable energy initiatives to expedite the transition toward a green and low-carbon energy future."
\nEver since China assumed the rotating presidency of the SCO in July last year, Chinese companies have signed, begun or completed over 160 power and renewable energy projects and more than 60 oil and gas projects in other SCO countries, totaling around 380 billion yuan ($52.5 billion), according to data released by the administration.
\nThese projects are a powerful engine for regional economic and social development, it said.
\nThe administration will further leverage the platform to deepen practical exchanges and cooperation with other SCO countries in the energy sector, explore new avenues for clean energy collaboration, enhance regional energy governance, and create a secure, green, and shared development platform, Wang said.
\nThere has been a surge in renewable energy collaboration between China and other SCO partners recently, fueling a considerable expansion of green energy capacity throughout the region and playing a key role in global decarbonization initiatives, said industry experts.
\nAccording to Li Sheng, director-general of the China Renewable Energy Engineering Institute, China is heavily focused on solar and wind power in its energy cooperation with other SCO countries.
\nSCO countries already hold a significant position in the global renewable energy market, he said.
\nBy the end of 2024, their installed renewable energy capacity exceeded 2.3 billion kilowatts, roughly half of the world's total, data from CREEI show.
\n"SCO countries possess abundant renewable resources, while China's leading renewable energy technologies, strong project construction capabilities, and complete industrial chain can complement the SCO's energy resources, industrial needs and market opportunities, fostering regional renewable energy development and mutual benefit," Li said.
\n"The future of renewable energy cooperation between China and other SCO countries is promising."

\nChinese tech heavyweight Alibaba Group Holding Ltd is ramping up efforts to leverage fast-developing artificial intelligence technology to boost the digital and intelligent transformation of enterprises and increase product sales of merchants.
\nAlibaba's business-to-business online trading platform 1688 has rolled out a series of AI-powered tools to help buyers search and select products more efficiently, improve the efficiency and intelligence level of management, and reduce operational costs.
\nThe platform has updated its AI digital employees, who will take charge of fundamental operational tasks, such as releasing product information and formulating marketing activities, while analyzing market trends and making business strategies.
\nCurrently, the company has integrated Alibaba's Qwen large language models and Chinese AI startup DeepSeek's open-source models into its systems, as it is committed to empowering businesses through the in-depth application of AI, and providing strong support for the digital transformation of traditional industries.
\nMo Daiqing, a senior analyst at the Internet Economy Institute, a domestic consultancy, said AI is improving all parts of e-commerce, from supply chains to how businesses interact with customers, while the shift toward digital platforms and AI-driven trade opens new frontiers for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, which now have digital tools to engage with international markets.
\nMo noted that the use of AI has entered a new stage, with major internet companies accelerating AI applications in fields including consumption and production, injecting strong momentum for future innovation and development.
\nThe State Council, China's Cabinet, recently issued a guideline on deeply implementing the "AI Plus" initiative. The country will promote the use of AI in science and technology, industrial development, consumption, people's well-being, governance capability and global cooperation, according to the guideline.
\nBy 2027, China will achieve extensive and deep integration of AI in six key sectors, with the penetration rate of new-generation intelligent terminals and AI agents surpassing 70 percent, and this figure will exceed 90 percent by 2030, the guideline said.
\nPan Helin, a member of the Expert Committee for Information and Communication Economy, which is part of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said more efforts should be made to give full play to platform enterprises' advantages in AI and big data, to expand the application scenarios of AI in a wider range of sectors.
\nFor SMEs, AI is not only a cutting-edge technology, but also one that provides a valuable opportunity for achieving transformation and upgrading, and improving the core competitiveness of enterprises, he added.
\nAlibaba is betting big on AI and has announced it will invest more than 380 billion yuan ($53.2 billion) in building cloud and AI hardware infrastructure over the next three years.
\nThe company said that its revenue increased 2 percent year-on-year to 247.65 billion yuan during the April-June period, with its core e-commerce and cloud computing businesses reporting robust growth.
\nRevenue from its cloud business rose 26 percent year-on-year to 33.4 billion yuan during the period. This momentum was primarily driven by public cloud revenue growth, including the increasing adoption of AI-related products.
\nAI-related product revenue achieved triple-digit year-on-year growth for the eighth consecutive quarter. As AI demand continues to grow rapidly, the company said it is seeing increased demand for computing, storage and other public cloud services to support AI adoption.
\nIt will continue to invest in anticipation of customer growth and technology innovation, including AI products and services, to increase cloud adoption for AI.

\nThe ongoing rally in China's A shares has underscored the importance of reform execution, and closing regulatory gaps further to safeguard market fairness and investor interest is vital to sustaining the bull run, said Liu Jipeng, a senior expert on the capital markets.
\n"A slow bull trend has taken shape. The goal should be making it steady and long-lasting so that the capital market can serve as a platform for common prosperity, where the majority of investors can share returns, rather than only a few getting rich overnight," said Liu, a professor at the Business School of China University of Political Science and Law.
\nWhile the divergence between China's economic slowdown pressures and its rising stock market has triggered discussions about the rally's stamina, Liu said that reform measures to better protect investors have provided a rational basis for the market upswing and will be key to its future course.
\n"The current bullish trend is hard-won and reflects valuable lessons learned from the past 18 years," Liu said in an exclusive interview with China Daily. "The A-share market is never short of money — China's household savings have surpassed 160 trillion yuan ($22.4 trillion) — yet has long been weighed down by institutional shortcomings that limited investor confidence."
\nLiu said that recent reforms have made a difference. Regulators, especially after Wu Qing took office as the chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission early last year, have been more determined to close regulatory loopholes — including tightening rules on large shareholder share sales and enhancing investor protection.
\nThese reforms have improved market fairness, Liu said. "Ultimately, the market will only thrive if it protects the interests of millions of retail investors while serving the financing needs of enterprises."
\nIn May 2024, the CSRC issued new rules seen as the toughest yet on share reductions by major shareholders in the A-share market, prohibiting them from circumventing stake reduction regulations through means such as negotiated share transfers, short selling or other irregular practices.
\nTo make the rally long-lasting, Liu said more should be done to close remaining regulatory loopholes to further enhance market fairness and investor protection, including in areas such as IPO review and pricing, quantitative trading and large shareholders' stakes.
\n"Capping the stake of the largest shareholder in listed companies is key to ensuring that the current slow bull run remains sustainable," Liu said. Otherwise, if major shareholders focus on off-loading stakes, the market will struggle to maintain momentum.
\nHe suggested that for new listings, the stake of the largest shareholder could be limited to around 30 percent, so that any further significant reductions would risk loss of control, thus encouraging controlling shareholders to concentrate on strengthening the company rather than pursuing quick cash-outs.
\nOn quantitative trading, Liu urged transitional rules to maintain fairness.
\n"Just as automobiles once faced strict limits in their early days to protect horse-drawn carriages, quantitative trading also needs restrictions to safeguard traditional investors," he said, adding that proposals could include brief pauses in high-frequency trading and higher transaction fees for algorithm-driven strategies.
\n"We must avoid polarization," Liu said, as the market should help generate wealth for the majority so that broader participation is encouraged and sustained.
\nAccording to Liu, ensuring the rally's steady and long-lasting momentum is of strategic importance for China's economic transformation, as finance and technology are like two legs supporting a nation's rise — one cannot move far without the other.
\nLooking at the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026-30), Liu stressed that China must further leverage the capital market as the strategic pivot to drive economic transformation and raise the role of capital finance — defined by him as an equity investment and financing system led by investment banking and rooted in the capital market.
\nProposals for formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan for national economic and social development are expected to be studied at the fourth plenary session of the 20th Communist Party of China Central Committee, scheduled to be held in Beijing in October.
\nAt present, commercial banking still dominates financing in China, while the capital market plays a minor role. Rebalancing or even reversing this structure, Liu said, will be essential to spur technological innovation and expand household wealth.
\nAs China's per capita GDP surpassed $13,000, boosting property-based income has become increasingly important, underscoring the role of capital finance.
\n"The A-share market will eventually shift from a retail-dominated market to one led by institutional investors, as in developed markets, allowing households to build wealth through the market via institutional investors such as corporate annuities, the social security fund and mutual funds."

\n", + "content": "The ongoing rally in China's A shares has underscored the importance of reform execution, and closing regulatory gaps further to safeguard market fairness and investor interest is vital to sustaining the bull run, said Liu Jipeng, a senior expert on the capital markets.
\n"A slow bull trend has taken shape. The goal should be making it steady and long-lasting so that the capital market can serve as a platform for common prosperity, where the majority of investors can share returns, rather than only a few getting rich overnight," said Liu, a professor at the Business School of China University of Political Science and Law.
\nWhile the divergence between China's economic slowdown pressures and its rising stock market has triggered discussions about the rally's stamina, Liu said that reform measures to better protect investors have provided a rational basis for the market upswing and will be key to its future course.
\n"The current bullish trend is hard-won and reflects valuable lessons learned from the past 18 years," Liu said in an exclusive interview with China Daily. "The A-share market is never short of money — China's household savings have surpassed 160 trillion yuan ($22.4 trillion) — yet has long been weighed down by institutional shortcomings that limited investor confidence."
\nLiu said that recent reforms have made a difference. Regulators, especially after Wu Qing took office as the chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission early last year, have been more determined to close regulatory loopholes — including tightening rules on large shareholder share sales and enhancing investor protection.
\nThese reforms have improved market fairness, Liu said. "Ultimately, the market will only thrive if it protects the interests of millions of retail investors while serving the financing needs of enterprises."
\nIn May 2024, the CSRC issued new rules seen as the toughest yet on share reductions by major shareholders in the A-share market, prohibiting them from circumventing stake reduction regulations through means such as negotiated share transfers, short selling or other irregular practices.
\nTo make the rally long-lasting, Liu said more should be done to close remaining regulatory loopholes to further enhance market fairness and investor protection, including in areas such as IPO review and pricing, quantitative trading and large shareholders' stakes.
\n"Capping the stake of the largest shareholder in listed companies is key to ensuring that the current slow bull run remains sustainable," Liu said. Otherwise, if major shareholders focus on off-loading stakes, the market will struggle to maintain momentum.
\nHe suggested that for new listings, the stake of the largest shareholder could be limited to around 30 percent, so that any further significant reductions would risk loss of control, thus encouraging controlling shareholders to concentrate on strengthening the company rather than pursuing quick cash-outs.
\nOn quantitative trading, Liu urged transitional rules to maintain fairness.

Visitors check out Xpeng vehicles on display at a shopping mall in Luoyang, Henan province, on July 13.
\nChina's new energy vehicle manufacturers reported strong delivery growth in August, with several brands hitting new records, according to figures released by automakers.
\nAmong all the major players, Leapmotor once again led the pack, delivering a record 57,066 vehicles in August, up more than 88 percent year-on-year. The company has now held the top spot among China's emerging NEV makers for six consecutive months.
\n"Leapmotor is accelerating its global expansion, with exports ranking among the top in the sector this year. Recent orders from Europe have also hit a historic high," said Zhu Jiangming, chairman of the company.
\nThe news comes after Leapmotor announced earlier that it would debut the Lafa 5, a youth-oriented compact hatchback, at the IAA Mobility 2025 motor show in Munich this month. Another key model, the B10, is also set to be unveiled in Munich and will launch later this year in over 20 overseas markets, the company said, adding that Europe has been designated as a strategic market, where the B10 will be priced at 29,900 euros ($34,810).
\nLooking ahead, the automaker is raising its annual sales target from between 500,000 and 600,000 units to between 580,000 and 650,000 units, and the company is "confident about taking on the challenge of reaching 1 million vehicle sales in the next year", said Li Tengfei, vice-president of Leapmotor, during the company's mid-year earnings call last month.
\nTrailing closely behind was Xpeng, which also hit a record high in August with over 37,700 deliveries, a jump of 169 percent year-on-year and up 2.7 percent month-on-month. From January to August, Xpeng's cumulative sales also surged 252 percent to around 271,600 units.
\nThe launch of the new Xpeng P7, which created a stir on its Aug 27 debut by securing more than 10,000 orders within just seven minutes — the fastest a new model has ever crossed that mark for the company, is helping to drive the momentum further.
\n"With the new P7 entering mass delivery, our goal is to steadily exceed 40,000 units per month starting in September," said XPeng Chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng, during the firm's second-quarter earnings call.
\nIn addition, Nio ranked third with around 31,300 deliveries in August, up 55 percent year-on-year. Its sub-brand Onvo contributed a strong part, delivering 16,434 vehicles, a 175 percent month-on-month increase.
\nTopping 10,000 deliveries in its first month, the new Onvo L90 SUV model has become the fastest-selling model in Nio's history.
\n"The Onvo L90 will remain our focus in the short term, while other models will be adjusted to support its growth," said Qin Lihong, Nio's co-founder and president, at the Chengdu Motor Show in Sichuan province in late August.
\nBy contrast, Li Auto, traditionally among the top three NEV players, saw sales slip in August, delivering 28,500 vehicles, down 6 percent month-on-month.
\nHowever, the company said production of its newly launched i8 electric SUV model is ramping up, with 8,000-10,000 units expected to be delivered by the end of September. Another new all-electric SUV model, the i6, priced at around 250,000 yuan ($34,995), is also expected to hit the market and begin deliveries this month, it said.
\nThe broader auto market also maintained its growth momentum. According to estimates by the China Passenger Car Association, narrow-sense passenger car retail sales reached about 1.94 million units in August, up 6.2 percent month-on-month and 2 percent year-on-year. NEVs accounted for roughly 1.1 million units, lifting the penetration rate to 56.7 percent.
\nLooking into the second half, NEV makers may face the twin pressures of fiercer competition and faster technology upgrades, yet the long-term growth outlook remains resilient, said Zhang Hong, a senior NEV industry expert at the China Automobile Dealers Association.
\n"The overall NEV penetration rate is expected to reach 53.7 percent in the second half, with plug-in hybrids and range-extended models accounting for nearly half, while demand for premium and intelligent features continues to rise," Zhang said.

A Jiangxi Air aircraft receives a water salute upon arrival at Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia on Aug 25.
\nDirect flights from Kuala Lumpur to Nanchang, East China's Jiangxi province, are expected into inject fresh impetus to the tourism sectors of both sides, said experts and officials.
\nThe comments came after Nanchang recently launched direct flight services to Malaysia's capital since the mutual visa exemption between China and Malaysia took effect in July.
\nThe inaugural flight returned to Nanchang at around 9 pm on Aug 25, carrying some 200 Malaysian tourists.
\n"It used to be quite troublesome to travel to Jiangxi. Now, with the direct flight, it's so convenient. This province has many beautiful cities — like Shangrao and Jingdezhen. The scenery we saw online is truly stunning, and we're excited to explore," said a Malaysian tourist surnamed Yang.
\nOperated by Jiangxi Air, the new route will be operated with two flights per week, every Monday and Saturday.
\nIt is not only Jiangxi's first direct flight to Malaysia post-visa waiver, but also currently the only direct route from this inland province to Southeast Asia.
\nOn its inaugural day, the flight achieved a load factor of over 90 percent. Ding Chunling, general manager of the marketing and sales department at Jiangxi Air, said this reflects a deepening exchange between the people of China and Malaysia.
\n"We began preparing for this international route a long time ago. During a business trip to Malaysia with the provincial Party secretary last year to promote investment and tourism, many local travel agencies expressed strong interest in establishing direct flights to us," Ding said.
\n"When news spread about the launch of this route, travel agencies rushed to make advance bookings — some even reserved seats through March next year," Ding added.
\nDato' Mohd Izani Ghani, managing director of Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad, described the new route as a key strategic move to enhance aviation cooperation between Malaysia and China.
\nHe said direct access to emerging inland markets in China would create more trade, investment and business opportunities for Malaysia.
\nIt will also solidify Kuala Lum-pur's position as a major aviation hub in Southeast Asia and open new avenues for tourism, economic and cultural exchanges, he added.
\nThe Nanchang-Kuala Lumpur route is Nanchang's third international direct flight, following Osaka and Singapore.
\nThe flight drastically shortens travel time between Southeast Asia and Jiangxi — from eight to nine hours with transfers down to just over four hours — and is expected to boost economic, trade and cultural tourism exchanges.
\nData indicate that the route is projected to bring over 15,000 tourists annually from Southeast Asia to Nanchang.
\nThe city has already seen significant growth in inbound tourism, with international visitor numbers rising by 20 percent year-on-year in the first half of the year.
\n"Outbound travel from Jiangxi is accelerating. We resumed flights to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur in August and will launch flights to Macao in September," said Xie Tao, chief of the second inspection section of Changbei Airport Customs.
\nIn addition to Jiangxi, other places in China — including Qingdao in Shandong province and Haikou in Hainan province — have also launched direct flights to Kuala Lumpur since the mutual visa exemption took effect on July 17.
\nLast year, several cities, such as Wuhan in Hubei province, Nanjing in Jiangsu, Kunming in Yunnan, and Yantai in Shandong, also introduced direct flights to Kuala Lumpur.

Outdoor sports enthusiasts climb down a waterfall at a scenic area of Huangping, Guizhou province, in August.
\nWith favorable policies and an ever increasing number of sports enthusiasts, China's sports industry is thriving.
\nDuring a recent news conference, Gao Zhidan, head of the General Administration of Sport, said: "During the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-25), China's sports industry, based on high-quality development, has strengthened reform and innovation and has a clear goal of building a strong sporting country."
\nDing Dong, head of the public sports bureau of the GAS, said that building and utilizing venues and facilities is a topic of interest for the public and a core element in improving the public service system for national fitness. "At present, the '15-minute fitness circle' in the community has been basically realized, and the needs of the masses to carry out fitness activities locally and conveniently have been basically met."
\nThe number of public fitness spaces is constantly expanding, as the country adds basic fitness and sporting facilities to local communities and parks to encourage active lifestyles. More than 170,000 sets of small and diverse fitness facilities such as table tennis tables have been built in nearly 20,000 residential areas and over 5,000 urban parks. At the same time, the country is continuously increasing the construction efforts of stadiums with spectator seating and facilities, sports parks, skating rinks, ski resorts and fitness centers. By the end of 2024, more than 1,300 new sports parks with an average area of over 40,000 square meters were built and put into use, said the GAS.
\nThe comprehensive utilization efficiency of sports venues has been improved. During the 14th Five-Year Plan, the country has invested a total of 5.65 billion yuan ($791.13 million) to support the free or low-cost opening of sports venues to the public. Among them, by the end of 2025, 3,370 venues in nearly 1,500 county-level administrative regions will be subsidized, and the beneficial opening of sports venues to the public has become the new normal, data from the GAS show.
\nBrand competitions attract the participation of the whole nation. Every year, various national fitness themed activities are carried out in a planned and systematic manner throughout the year and are widely welcomed by people across the country. During this year's National Fitness Day, more than 22,000 sporting events were held nationwide, with over 11 million direct participants. For the first time, a national fitness competition was held in the form of a "regional competition", with over 6,000 events reaching the public. For three consecutive years, the National Fitness Online Games have been held, with a total of over 58 million participants, providing convenient online sports services to the public.
\nThe country has been actively promoting the physical and mental health development of young people. During the 14th Five-Year Plan, more than 145,000 running activities have been held, with 151 million young people participating in, basically covering all age groups and distances. A preliminary intervention model for adolescent physical health has been established in 12 provincial-level regions to address common prominent issues such as myopia, obesity and scoliosis among adolescents.
\nYang Xuedong, head of the sports economy bureau of the GAS, said that since the start of the 14th Five-Year Plan, China's sports industry has steadily developed. By 2023, the total scale of the national sports industry had reached 3.67 trillion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 10.3 percent.
\nThe sports services industry, led by the competition and performance industry and fitness and leisure industry, has grown rapidly, accounting for 72.7 percent of the added value of the sports industry in 2023, up from 68.7 percent in 2020.
\nThe sports manufacturing industry is improving in quality and efficiency. By the end of 2024, there were 146 national-level specialized, refined and new "little giant" enterprises in the sports field, more than doubling the number from the end of 2022. Advanced materials and technologies are accelerating their transformation and application in the field of sports, and a large number of high-tech products such as carbon fiber bicycles and intelligent fitness equipment are entering millions of households.
\nPlatform support is more effective. The country has successively launched 81 National Day and Spring Festival sports tourism routes, 19 outdoor sports routes and 26 national level skiing tourism resorts, promoting the development, utilization and coordinated development of advantageous resources in the region. The influence of sports equipment expos, sports culture expos and sports tourism expos continues to expand. In the first half, the total import and export volume of sports equipment exceeded $15.5 billion, the GAS said.
\nThe sports economy is thriving. The hosting of the Hangzhou Asian Games has driven a consumption growth of over 40 percent in surrounding areas. Ticket sales for popular professional events such as F1 are booming, with ticket revenue for last year's China Open exceeding 80 million yuan. Mass market sports events continue to innovate, with a number of popular events gaining popularity. The Jiangsu Football City League, or Suchao, attracted over 60,000 spectators for a single match, driving multi-scenario consumption of 38 billion yuan across Jiangsu province.
\nThe scale and industrial influence of outdoor sports continue to expand. In 2024, the online consumption of outdoor sports in China was about 200 million person-time, with total consumption over 300 billion yuan. The construction of high-quality outdoor sports destinations is advancing at pace. By the end of 2024, there were 171,800 fitness trails with a length of 407,500 kilometers. The number of flight camps, car camps and other places in the country had reached 2,055, with 914 ski resorts nationwide, according to the GAS.
\nWang Bing, a sports enthusiast in Beijing, said that she spends 1,000 yuan on sports equipment on average every month. "I ride my bicycle in spring and autumn, go kayaking in summer and skiing in winter. I love buying sports equipment."
\nShe noted that her bicycle alone cost her 40,000 yuan and the sports outfits cost around 500 yuan on average.

\nOutdoor sports enthusiasts climb down a waterfall at a scenic area of Huangping, Guizhou province, in August.
\nWith favorable policies and an ever increasing number of sports enthusiasts, China's sports industry is thriving.
\nDuring a recent news conference, Gao Zhidan, head of the General Administration of Sport, said: "During the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-25), China's sports industry, based on high-quality development, has strengthened reform and innovation and has a clear goal of building a strong sporting country."
\nDing Dong, head of the public sports bureau of the GAS, said that building and utilizing venues and facilities is a topic of interest for the public and a core element in improving the public service system for national fitness. "At present, the '15-minute fitness circle' in the community has been basically realized, and the needs of the masses to carry out fitness activities locally and conveniently have been basically met."
\nThe number of public fitness spaces is constantly expanding, as the country adds basic fitness and sporting facilities to local communities and parks to encourage active lifestyles. More than 170,000 sets of small and diverse fitness facilities such as table tennis tables have been built in nearly 20,000 residential areas and over 5,000 urban parks. At the same time, the country is continuously increasing the construction efforts of stadiums with spectator seating and facilities, sports parks, skating rinks, ski resorts and fitness centers. By the end of 2024, more than 1,300 new sports parks with an average area of over 40,000 square meters were built and put into use, said the GAS.
\nThe comprehensive utilization efficiency of sports venues has been improved. During the 14th Five-Year Plan, the country has invested a total of 5.65 billion yuan ($791.13 million) to support the free or low-cost opening of sports venues to the public. Among them, by the end of 2025, 3,370 venues in nearly 1,500 county-level administrative regions will be subsidized, and the beneficial opening of sports venues to the public has become the new normal, data from the GAS show.
\nBrand competitions attract the participation of the whole nation. Every year, various national fitness themed activities are carried out in a planned and systematic manner throughout the year and are widely welcomed by people across the country. During this year's National Fitness Day, more than 22,000 sporting events were held nationwide, with over 11 million direct participants. For the first time, a national fitness competition was held in the form of a "regional competition", with over 6,000 events reaching the public. For three consecutive years, the National Fitness Online Games have been held, with a total of over 58 million participants, providing convenient online sports services to the public.
\nThe country has been actively promoting the physical and mental health development of young people. During the 14th Five-Year Plan, more than 145,000 running activities have been held, with 151 million young people participating in, basically covering all age groups and distances. A preliminary intervention model for adolescent physical health has been established in 12 provincial-level regions to address common prominent issues such as myopia, obesity and scoliosis among adolescents.
\nYang Xuedong, head of the sports economy bureau of the GAS, said that since the start of the 14th Five-Year Plan, China's sports industry has steadily developed. By 2023, the total scale of the national sports industry had reached 3.67 trillion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 10.3 percent.
\nThe sports services industry, led by the competition and performance industry and fitness and leisure industry, has grown rapidly, accounting for 72.7 percent of the added value of the sports industry in 2023, up from 68.7 percent in 2020.
\nThe sports manufacturing industry is improving in quality and efficiency. By the end of 2024, there were 146 national-level specialized, refined and new "little giant" enterprises in the sports field, more than doubling the number from the end of 2022. Advanced materials and technologies are accelerating their transformation and application in the field of sports, and a large number of high-tech products such as carbon fiber bicycles and intelligent fitness equipment are entering millions of households.
\nPlatform support is more effective. The country has successively launched 81 National Day and Spring Festival sports tourism routes, 19 outdoor sports routes and 26 national level skiing tourism resorts, promoting the development, utilization and coordinated development of advantageous resources in the region. The influence of sports equipment expos, sports culture expos and sports tourism expos continues to expand. In the first half, the total import and export volume of sports equipment exceeded $15.5 billion, the GAS said.
\nThe sports economy is thriving. The hosting of the Hangzhou Asian Games has driven a consumption growth of over 40 percent in surrounding areas. Ticket sales for popular professional events such as F1 are booming, with ticket revenue for last year's China Open exceeding 80 million yuan. Mass market sports events continue to innovate, with a number of popular events gaining popularity. The Jiangsu Football City League, or Suchao, attracted over 60,000 spectators for a single match, driving multi-scenario consumption of 38 billion yuan across Jiangsu province.
\nThe scale and industrial influence of outdoor sports continue to expand. In 2024, the online consumption of outdoor sports in China was about 200 million person-time, with total consumption over 300 billion yuan. The construction of high-quality outdoor sports destinations is advancing at pace. By the end of 2024, there were 171,800 fitness trails with a length of 407,500 kilometers. The number of flight camps, car camps and other places in the country had reached 2,055, with 914 ski resorts nationwide, according to the GAS.
\nWang Bing, a sports enthusiast in Beijing, said that she spends 1,000 yuan on sports equipment on average every month. "I ride my bicycle in spring and autumn, go kayaking in summer and skiing in winter. I love buying sports equipment."
\nShe noted that her bicycle alone cost her 40,000 yuan and the sports outfits cost around 500 yuan on average.

Skiers seen at an amusement park in Nantong, Jiangsu province, in August.
\nWhen the temperature in many parts of the country exceeded 40 C, tourists at Beidahu Ski Resort in Jilin province were wearing down jackets and screaming with fun on the snow loop slide at minus 5 C.
\nAccording to the ski resort, last winter the consumption per capita reached 800 yuan ($112). This summer, by selling cool and refreshing experiences, daily visits to the ski resort surpassed 10,000, with per customer transactions amounting to around 300 yuan.
\nThe snow making machines at Beidahu Ski Resort, the core equipment for maintaining a 30,000 square meter ski slope, were still active in July. The operator calculated that the maintenance cost of each square meter of ski slope is about 15 yuan per day. By transforming the primary ski slope into a snow ring slide, it can accommodate up to 5,000 people per day. Unlike winter professional skiers, 65 percent of summer tourists are families with children, while 42 percent come from southern regions. They are more willing to pay for experiences such as snowmobiles and ice house coffee.
\n"This transformation is not a simple transformation. Snow trucks have been converted into snow making equipment, with centralized ice making during low electricity periods at night. The snow equipment hall has been transformed into a cold drinks area, with infrastructure reuse rate increased to 70 percent. The occupancy rate of the supporting hot spring hotels in summer is actually 20 percentage points higher than in winter, proving that the experience combination of 'ice and fire' is forming a new selling point," said people in charge of Beidahu Ski Resort.
\nThe key to off-season operations lies in cost restructuring. According to data from Jilin Songhua Lake Ski Resort, tickets only account for 35 percent of the summer revenue structure, while derivative services such as ice sculpture exhibitions and ice and snow photography contribute 28 percent of profits. The more secretive profit point lies in catering and accommodation: the conversion rate of Northeast cuisine restaurants operated by ski resorts is three times that of winter, and the "Cold Zone Hot Pot" priced at 58 yuan has become a popular item.
\nIndoor ski resorts in the south face greater challenges. The electricity costs of an indoor ski resort in Guangzhou, Guangdong province are three times that of a natural ski resort, but they have found a breakthrough point: bundling sales of tickets with water parks, generating a 200 percent surge in summer children's ice and snow course bookings. Chengdu Sunac Resort has set room rates for ice and snow themed hotels at over 1,000 yuan per night, still maintaining an occupancy rate of 85 percent, proving that high-quality amenities can offset energy costs.
\nFrom the 100 summer screenings at Jilin Ji'an Open Air Cinema to the hot pot in Fuling, Chongqing, the "temperature difference economy" is giving rise to cross-border scenes. The "Under the Bridge Concert" in Xingtai, Hebei province, gathers crowds through a zero ticket model, with surrounding cold drink stalls selling 800 cups per day; Lianyungang Sailing Club in Jiangsu province combines electric surfboard teaching with ancient tower sightseeing, increasing the unit price by 40 percent.
\nWang Peng, an associate research fellow at the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences said: "Off-season snow economy breaks the dependence of the ice and snow industry on cold winter climate, expands the spatial and temporal boundaries of industrial development and opens up new growth space. It accurately captures summer consumer demand for coolness and unique experiences, satisfying novel and personalized consumption psychology, and unleashing new consumption vitality."
\n"Furthermore, it drives the coordinated development of multiple industries such as tourism, catering, accommodation and retail, forms industrial clusters and promotes regional economic synergy. Also, it enhances industrial resilience, provides strategies for the cultural and tourism industry to respond to market changes, enhances risk resistance through diversified ice and snow activities, and ensures stable development of the industry."
\nWhen climate becomes a controllable factor, the design of cultural and tourism products is shifting from "seasonal adaptation" to "full-time creation". The future competitiveness lies in how to empower natural endowments with technology and transform coolness into sustainable consumption momentum, experts said.

\nAt a time of accelerating global transformation and turbulence, the two countries are standing firmly side by side, and providing strategic ballast for the multipolar world order.
\nBoth sides have remained true to their original aspirations and maintained their resolve, achieving positive results in cooperation across various fields. In the process, China-Russia relations have withstood the test of a changing international landscape and set an example of major-country relations characterized by good-neighborliness, comprehensive strategic coordination, and mutually beneficial cooperation.
\nAs President Xi pointed out, China is willing to strengthen high-level exchanges with Russia to support each other's development and revitalization, promptly coordinate positions on issues concerning the core interests and major concerns of both countries, and promote greater development of China-Russia relations.
\nThat both China and Russia have strong driving forces for their respective development and revitalization provides them with broad space and potential to foster their cooperation with major projects. By carrying out some benchmark collaboration projects and giving full play to their demonstration effects, the two countries can further expand and deepen the integration of their interests.
\nTo that end, as President Xi urged, the two sides should enhance the resilience of their cooperation, deepen their mutual understanding and make every effort to consolidate and maintain the overall situation of cooperation.
\nThe breadth of cooperation agreements signed between the two countries on Tuesday — over 20 in energy, aerospace, artificial intelligence, agriculture, health, education and media — shows how the bilateral trust is being translated into tangible projects of strategic importance. This pragmatic and results-oriented approach ensures that China-Russia cooperation will continue to deliver benefits even amid global headwinds.
\nIt is good to hear President Putin warmly echo his Chinese counterpart by expressing Russia's willingness to maintain strategic coordination with China, strengthen high-level exchanges, enhance practical cooperation in various fields, and promote the continued high-level development of bilateral ties.
\nNotably, as Xi said, the attendance of the Chinese and Russian heads of state at the respective celebrations in Russia and China commemorating victory in the World Anti-Fascist War, fully demonstrates the two neighbors' responsibility as major powers and permanent members of the United Nations Security Council to safeguard the fruits of victory in the war against fascism and defend a correct view of that part of history.
\nMoreover, in recognizing the timeliness and necessity of Xi's proposal of the Global Governance Initiative at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in Tianjin, Putin has acknowledged the important role the initiative can play in helping address the global governance deficit.
\nThe initiative aims to unite all like-minded countries to uphold the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and promote a more just and equitable global governance system. The principles of the initiative are a direct response to the trust and fairness deficits in today's global governance and are in sharp contrast to hegemonism and unilateralism.
\nChina and Russia should continue to strengthen their cooperation within multilateral platforms such as the SCO, the UN, BRICS, and the G20, and resolutely emphasize sovereign equality, international rule of law and multilateralism, to jointly promote the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.
\nPutin's congratulations to China on its successful hosting of the Tianjin Summit point to the rich outcomes of the event, which led to the achievement of multiple consensuses and effectively promoted the development of the SCO. Particularly, a development strategy for the SCO in the 2026-35 period was approved during the summit, setting the tone and direction for the organization's growth in the next decade.
\nThe Xi-Putin meeting, held against the backdrop of the SCO Summit and China's commemorative events, is a demonstration of the strategic depth and cooperative breadth of China-Russia relations and their joint determination to contribute to a multipolar world of fairness and justice.

\nThis event, of profound political and historical significance, is not merely a commemoration of past triumphs but a reminder of the enduring spirit and resilience of the Chinese people. A display of national pride and a testament to the sacrifices made by the countless heroes who fought for justice and peace, the parade showcases China's readiness to face contemporary challenges with confidence and strength, and reflects the country's commitment to safeguarding its sovereignty and territorial integrity and its capability to contribute to global peace.
\nAt the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit, held in China's northern port city of Tianjin on Sunday and Monday, the leaders of the member countries of the organization jointly issued a declaration on the victory won in the war against fascism and the 80th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations.
\nAs stated in the declaration, the World Anti-Fascist War brought great suffering and calamity to humanity, causing the deaths of millions of people. That war, launched by fascist forces with the intention of seeking monopolistic control of the entire world, deprived other countries and peoples of their freedom, their national identity, people's personal identity, and their traditional values.
\nThe Chinese people suffered more than any other as the war against Japanese aggression lasted 14 years (1931-45), causing over 35 million casualties and vast swaths of scorched earth.
\nThe victory against fascism was won because of the dedication of people worldwide who united to ensure that the fascist forces did not prevail.
\nYet what China and its people did during this period of history is not fully acknowledged and it is even relegated to the periphery in Western narratives of the war. The battlefields in China constituted an important theater in the war, and the Chinese people's tenacious resistance against the invading Japanese forces is a core part of the World Anti-Fascist War, and should be recognized as such.
\nThe contribution China made to the victory in the World Anti-Fascist War should assume its rightful place in history. This explains why it is necessary for China to organize activities to mark the victory anniversary.
\nFrom its own history in the more than a century when it was humiliated by the invasions of foreign powers, China well knows how important it is to have a strong military for its security and peaceful development.
\nThe great changes taking place in the international situation also mean that China as a major country must do its bit for global development and world peace, and that obligates it to have a strong military able to shoulder its peacekeeping responsibilities. This is borne out by it contributing the largest number of UN peacekeepers among all the UN Security Council members.
\nChina as a major champion of the UN Charter and advocate for a fair and just framework for global governance always upholds the UN as the center of the global system. Just as the declaration of the SCO stated, the founding of the United Nations was one of the most important fruits of the victory in the war against fascism. The UN has long been a cornerstone of international relations, and has established various models of cooperation in a wide range of fields such as the protection of world peace and security, global social and economic development and human rights progress.
\nChina always stands on the right side of justice and strives to promote global development and world peace. Its Victory Day military parade is not a display of China's military muscles per se, and it is certainly not directed at any country; China is not militaristic and neither are its people. Instead, the military parade is meant to tell the world that China will never forget those who lost their lives during that war and will remember that part of history forever in order to do its bit for the protection of world peace and to promote the role of the UN in maintaining a fair and just world order.
\nWednesday's grand ceremony is therefore both a tribute to the past and a beacon of hope for the future. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made for national independence and freedom, and is a celebration of the enduring spirit that continues to guide China toward a future of peace, prosperity and global harmony.

+ "description": "The 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War is something worth celebrating for the Chinese people. This was the consensus that emerged at a symposium in Beijing on Tuesday attended by hundreds of representatives, including those from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas Chinese communities.
\nAs evident from the discussions at the symposium, this great victory inspires Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to work together to strive for the complete reunification of the country and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
\nIn the struggle against foreign aggression, Chinese compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan, and many others living overseas, demonstrated how they share a common destiny with the motherland.
\nFor example, during the 50-year-long period when the Japanese occupied Taiwan, countless Taiwan compatriots fought heroic battles against the Japanese colonialists, resulting in the loss of over 650,000 lives.
\nAfter the outbreak of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, over 50,000 Taiwan compatriots, guided by the conviction that "to save Taiwan, we must first save the motherland", rushed to the Chinese mainland to join the war, demonstrating the integrity and dignity of being Chinese with their blood and lives.
\nTaiwan's return to the motherland after the war also underscores the historical and legal reality that Taiwan is an inalienable part of Chinese territory.
\nIt is good to see former Kuomintang chairwoman Hung Hsiu-chu arrive in Beijing on Monday to participate in the commemorations. As she said, history cannot be forgotten, much less distorted, and commemorating this victory now is akin to paying a profound tribute to our ancestors.
\nHowever, the secessionist-minded Democratic Progressive Party authorities on the island have outrageously disregarded the significance of the victory and the commemorations. They have even tried to glorify Japan's colonial rule, and wantonly promoted "de-Sinicization" on the Chinese island.
\nTheir actions betray their ancestors, insult the memory of the tremendous national sacrifices made by compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, are an affront to justice and the conscience of humanity, and evidence of their conspiracy to split the country.
\nNo matter how difficult the conditions, no matter how brutal the war, no matter how great the sacrifices, the Chinese people never wavered in their resolve to defend their homeland and recover the Taiwan island.
\nToday, the Chinese nation is closer, more confident, and more capable than ever before to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the complete reunification of the island with its motherland.
\nThis is also one of the reasons why China is commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory against Japanese aggression.
\nThe Chinese people were fighting for the very existence of the Chinese nation. Their strong resistance smashed Japanese militarists' dream of colonizing China and enslaving the Chinese people. And what Chinese people did during this war contributed tremendously to the victory in the World Anti-Fascist War.
\nThe military parade on Wednesday is intended to tell the world that China will never forget the martyrs who lost their lives in that war and will forever remember that part of history, and always contribute to maintaining world peace and promoting the role of the United Nations in upholding a just and equitable international order.
\nThe Taiwan question arose because of national weakness and disorder, and it will be resolved through national rejuvenation.
\nWith the united efforts of all Chinese people, the nation will accomplish national reunification and achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Nevertheless, there were some bright spots of growth in certain areas such as the digital economy. What do the current global investment trends indicate? Compared with developed countries, what advantages do developing countries have in attracting foreign investment? Will the global FDI outlook improve this year? Li Nan, director of the Division on Investment and Enterprise, United Nations Trade and Development, spoke to Chinanews.com on these issues. Below are excerpts from the interview. The views don't necessarily represent those of China Daily.
\nGlobal FDI declined in 2024 mainly due to a 58 percent year-on-year fall in inflows to Europe. The decline reflected the severe impact of geopolitical tensions and financial market instability on investor confidence. In addition, international project finance, which plays a critical role in infrastructure investment, dropped by 11 percent in Europe, underscoring investors' broader caution and the generally tighter financial environment.
\nIn contrast, inflows to developing countries remained relatively stable. In 2024, developing economies accounted for 57 percent of global FDI inflows. Their total FDI reached $867 billion, roughly unchanged from the previous year. This highlights the resilience of developing countries against a backdrop of continued global uncertainty, tighter financial conditions and weak trade. FDI inflows to developing economies were highly concentrated, reflecting the difficulties faced by smaller and more vulnerable economies in attracting international investment.
\nDeveloping and developed countries have a different attitude to FDI. In recent years, global investment policymaking has increasingly been shaped by geopolitical tensions and industrial policy objectives. Developing countries continue to emphasize openness to FDI, rolling out numerous supportive measures, while developed economies are increasingly inclined to adopt restrictive policies, particularly when it comes to national security and FDI screening.
\nMore than 40 percent of the adverse measures introduced in 2024 involved new or expanded screening mechanisms. These were mainly adopted by developed economies, targeting high-tech industries as well as critical raw materials essential to the energy transition and supply chain resilience. Meanwhile, industrial policy incentives have become the mainstream policy tool for attracting global investment, accounting for 45 percent of the favorable measures.
\nThe digital economy is the fastest growing sector for global investment. In 2024, greenfield investment projects in this field surged to $360 billion. Between 2020 and 2024, developing economies attracted $531 billion in digital economy greenfield investment. However, these investments were highly concentrated, with nearly 80 percent flowing to 10 countries. Just six countries — India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam and China — accounted for more than 60 percent of the total FDI. In Latin America, Brazil and Mexico led the way, while in West Asia, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates were front-runners.
\nFDI in the digital economy helps promote the spread of technologies, improve productivity and foster inclusive development through technologies in areas such as health, education, finance and agriculture. It plays a key role in advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. However, its development differs across countries and regions, depending on factors such as infrastructure, digital capabilities, market conditions and regulatory frameworks.
\nChina and the United States are among the world's leading recipients of FDI. By working together, the two countries could help restore investor confidence worldwide and create a more favorable development environment for low-income and vulnerable economies. In recent years, China's FDI patterns have shown positive shifts, with inflows moving increasingly toward high-tech industries and advanced manufacturing. This reflects China's growing capacity to attract high-quality investment.

\nSpeaking at the China-US Friendly Youth Pickleball Competition in Montgomery County, Ambassador Xie Feng noted that "throughout history, it is the kindness of our people and the courage of our youths that have kept moving China-US relations forward".
\nXie said youth had played pivotal roles before: Eight decades ago, US youngsters fought alongside Chinese forces during World War II, and five decades ago, young athletes opened doors for bilateral exchange through ping-pong diplomacy.
\n"We need to give full support for every engagement between our youths, so that they can get a firsthand perspective through mutual visits, build trust through dialogue, enhance friendship in cooperation, and inject more hope and vitality into the steady, sound and sustainable development of China-US relations," he said.
\nSunday's competition followed a cultural exchange between Montgomery County Public Schools and Chinese students that started earlier this year.
\nIn April, about 30 MCPS student-athletes traveled to Shanghai, Beijing and Shenzhen for a 12-day pickleball and cultural tour, which MCPS Systemwide Athletics Director Jeffrey Sullivan described as "pickleball diplomacy".
\nDuring the trip, students made dumplings, celebrated a birthday, strolled along the Bund in Shanghai and climbed the Great Wall in Beijing, while also witnessing how AI empowers education, and marveled at how ideas are turned into reality through laser engraving.
\nIn return, 53 students and teachers from Shenzhen visited Montgomery to participate in Sunday's event.
\nXie said the event represented "a gathering of old buddies and a chance to meet new friends", highlighting the importance of youth exchanges in forging China — US ties.
\n"Let's encourage more exchanges with such youthful vigor," he said. "The bond between our two countries has deepened with every interaction you have, and the path of China-US friendship has widened with every step you take."
\nIn his speech, Xie mentioned that Chinese President Xi Jinping sent a reply letter in July to the teachers and students of the US youth pickleball cultural exchange delegation, encouraging them to become "a new generation of ambassadors for friendship between our two countries" and to deepen people-to-people ties.
\nThe April delegation's experience was captured in a documentary that premiered in July in Washington.
\n"Relations between countries start with one relationship at a time, one interaction at a time," Sullivan, who took part in Sunday's event, said at the premiere, according to a Montgomery Community Media website report.
\n"And that's exactly what our student ambassadors did, the entire time in China and since then. And so, pickleball diplomacy just became a thing."
\nTransformative trip
\nFor Ryan Corkery, a 2025 Sherwood High School graduate and MCPS pickleball diplomacy ambassador, the pickleball trip was nothing short of transformative.
\n"We went to China — most crazy, life-changing experience in my life. Met so many cool people, had so many cool experiences and, yeah, thank you, pickleball," Corkery said at a Montgomery County Recreation podcast released on Thursday.
\n"The pickleball helped us build these lasting friendships … we still talk to the Chinese kids today on various social media," he said.
\nBeyond the courts, the students discovered something even more powerful — connection.
\nTrinh Au, a 2025 Clarksburg High School graduate and MCPS pickleball diplomacy ambassador, recalled playing three friendly matches with Chinese peers, and "we just hung out the whole day for the whole city".
\n"It was really fun to be able to meet with them, connect with them on a further level, further than pickleball," Au said.

Bola Tinubu
\nNigeria's President Bola Tinubu has reaffirmed his administration's commitment to delivering flagship infrastructure projects under the Belt and Road Initiative, describing them as "national assets to serve every Nigerian".
\nIn an update issued on Monday, Tinubu listed the trans-Saharan highway and the 439-kilometer Akwanga-Jos-Bauchi-Gombe road among the legacy projects of the administration.
\nBoth roads are being financed and executed by Chinese partners and are expected to transform transport links across Africa's most populous country.
\nThe president highlighted Nigeria's role in the 4,500-km trans-Saharan highway, a continental route that crosses Algeria, Chad, Mali, Niger, Nigeria and Tunisia.
\nHe also emphasized the significance of the Akwanga-Jos-Bauchi-Gombe road, which was constructed by the China Geo-Engineering Corporation.
\nRedesigned with a rigid pavement structure, the road forms a critical link in the Nigerian portion of the Trans-Saharan corridor, connecting Nigeria's largest city, Lagos, to Algeria's capital, Algiers, through Niger.
\n"These are not local trophies," Tinubu said on X. "They are our national assets."
\nBeyond highways, he pointed to rail as central to Nigeria's integration and growth. The 387-km Kano-Kaduna standard gauge railway, which links the two major cities in the country's north and is being constructed by China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, has recently received new loan disbursements and is advancing steadily.
\nOnce completed, it will link key northern commercial hubs to Nigeria's capital, Abuja, and form a major section of the Lagos-Kano corridor.
\nTinubu also confirmed that the Abuja light rail system, built by CCECC, has been revived after years of inactivity.
\nSimilar urban rail projects in Kano, Kaduna and Lagos have been greenlighted, reflecting China's growing role in Nigeria's urban transit revival.
\nTinubu further underscored energy infrastructure as a pillar of cooperation, citing the Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano gas pipeline, which is being funded with the support of Chinese banks and insurers, and has already crossed the Niger River.
\nOnce completed, the multibillion-dollar pipeline will supply gas to industries and power plants, benefiting millions across central and northern Nigeria.
\nThe president also highlighted the 700-megawatt Zungeru hydropower plant, which is expected to strengthen the national grid and boost industrial capacity.
\nThe government has noted that the projects will reduce travel times, expand market access for farmers and traders, alleviate congestion in fast-growing cities and support industrial growth.
\n"Every farmer who needs a road, every trader who needs power, every child who needs a school, every patient who needs care … this is who we are building for," Tinubu said.
\nSince signing the Belt and Road cooperation agreement with China in 2018, Nigeria has benefited from major projects, including the Lekki Deep Sea Port, the Lagos-Ibadan train route and several airport terminals, undertaken by Chinese enterprises.
\nNigeria has become China's largest contractor market, its second-largest trading partner and a major investment destination in Africa, according to the Chinese embassy in Nigeria.

\nSimilar urban rail projects in Kano, Kaduna and Lagos have been greenlighted, reflecting China's growing role in Nigeria's urban transit revival.
\nTinubu further underscored energy infrastructure as a pillar of cooperation, citing the Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano gas pipeline, which is being funded with the support of Chinese banks and insurers, and has already crossed the Niger River.
\nOnce completed, the multibillion-dollar pipeline will supply gas to industries and power plants, benefiting millions across central and northern Nigeria.
\nThe president also highlighted the 700-megawatt Zungeru hydropower plant, which is expected to strengthen the national grid and boost industrial capacity.
\nThe government has noted that the projects will reduce travel times, expand market access for farmers and traders, alleviate congestion in fast-growing cities and support industrial growth.
\n"Every farmer who needs a road, every trader who needs power, every child who needs a school, every patient who needs care … this is who we are building for," Tinubu said.
\nSince signing the Belt and Road cooperation agreement with China in 2018, Nigeria has benefited from major projects, including the Lekki Deep Sea Port, the Lagos-Ibadan train route and several airport terminals, undertaken by Chinese enterprises.
\nNigeria has become China's largest contractor market, its second-largest trading partner and a major investment destination in Africa, according to the Chinese embassy in Nigeria.

\nSouthern Thai provinces have stepped up efforts to promote their high-quality durian farms, to rival the traditional production base in Thailand's eastern provinces for a larger export market share amid the enthusiasm of Chinese consumers for the spiky fruit.
\nAt a recent seminar on boosting confidence in southern Thai durians for the global market, officials from the Department of Agricultural Extension, or DOAE, revealed that the department has implemented eight stringent measures to promote high-quality fruit production, ensuring both quality and safety to meet export standards.
\nThese measures cover the entire supply chain, from orchards to markets, especially during peak harvest seasons.
\nDigital technology has been applied to analyze data and systematically manage risks, said DOAE Director-General Peeraphan Korthong.
\nHe said key initiatives include intensive farmer training on Good Agricultural Practices — a voluntary certification program that verifies sound food safety practices are being used.
\n"Farmers also need to learn strict orchard hygiene protocols and pest surveillance to build buyer confidence," Peeraphan said. "Moreover, we have worked to strengthen farmer-exporter networks and drive value-added products such as frozen and freeze-dried durian to meet the growing international demand for premium-quality fruit."
\nDurian plantations have expanded dramatically in southern Thailand in recent years. The region's durian orchards area increased from 101,000 hectares in 2020 to 139,000 hectares this year, according to the DOAE.
\n"The driving force behind this is the great demand overseas, in particular the Chinese market," said Chakri Suwannaphum, 55, owner of the Suan Jitraksa orchard in Thapa district, Songkhla Province.
\nCovering an area of 7.5 hectares, the orchard produces 20 metric tons of Monthong durian, also known as Golden Pillow, annually. The orchard brings him a revenue of $92,600 to $123,500 per year.
\nChakri said China now has a higher standard for fruit imports, with strict protocols for pesticides and other residues, so a more scientific management with high safety standards is needed.
\n"This helps to strengthen our competition in the international market, not only China but also other emerging regions," he added.
\nPhuwadet Wuttiwongwat, director of DOAE's region No 5 office in Songkhla, said five southern Thai provinces boast 5,024 durian orchards that have been certified under Good Agricultural Practices standards. "Supply chain development and strengthened export credibility, especially to China, are our major priorities," he said.
\nTo guarantee the ripening time — a crucial step for fruit quality — local authorities will ask farmers to send fruit samples to a local testing center three days before harvesting, said Nippawan Meethong, director of the Agricultural Technology Promotion Center for Plant Protection.
\nDuring the seminar, Chinese Consul General in Songkhla Wang Zhijian and overseas buyers were invited to visit some high-quality durian orchards. They observed their production processes, which strictly follow Good Agricultural Practices standards and rigorous quality control systems.

\nLandslide kills more than 1,000 in Darfur
\nA massive landslide in Sudan's western Darfur region has flattened an entire mountain village and killed more than 1,000 people, a rebel group said, leaving only one survivor. The disaster struck on Sunday after days of heavy rain, devastating the village of Tarasin in the Jebel Marra area, the Sudan Liberation Movement said in a statement. The group appealed to the United Nations and other aid organizations for help in recovering the dead still buried under mud and debris. Images the group published on social media appeared to show huge sections of the mountainside having collapsed, burying the village under thick mud, with trees uprooted and beams shattered.

\nThe Belgian city of Ecaussinnes paid solemn tribute on Friday to Qian Xiuling, also known as Madame Siou-Ling Tsien de Perlinghi, unveiling a commemorative portrait at the communal council chamber and recalling her heroic acts during World War II.
\nThe event, jointly organized by the Chinese embassy and the local government, also marked the preview of a photo exhibition commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and WWII.
\nBorn in 1912 in eastern China's Jiangsu province, Qian pursued chemistry at the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium and earned a doctorate in chemical sciences. She later married Belgian physician Gregoire de Perlinghi and settled in Ecaussinnes.
\nDuring the Nazi occupation of Belgium, Qian persuaded German general Alexander von Falkenhausen to save almost 100 fighters from execution, an act that earned her enduring gratitude in Belgium.
\nOver her lifetime, she was honored with medals, street naming, and depictions in both Belgian and Chinese documentaries and television dramas. Often referred to as the "Belgian Schindler", she passed away in 2008 at the age of 96.
\nSpeaking at Friday's ceremony, Li Yan, charge d'affaires ad interim of the Chinese embassy in Belgium, praised Qian as "a chemist, a mother and a woman of commitment".
\n"Chinese by origin, Belgian at heart, an Ecaussinnoise by destiny," she said.
\n"Thanks to her courage, her connections and her determination, these men were spared. And by that act, it was all of Ecaussinnes that she saved from an irreparable grief.
\n"May this portrait be a landmark for future generations. May it remind them that, in the face of injustice, silence is a choice — but action can change lives."
\nSebastien Deschamps, mayor of Ecaussinnes, underscored the town's "eternal gratitude" to Madame de Perlinghi, saying: "She came from so far away to save the lives of people she did not even know. This noble recognition fosters a genuine and lasting bond between the people of Ecaussinnes and the Chinese community of Belgium — and, why not, also with China itself."
\nThe commemorative photo exhibition in Ecaussinnes will be followed by further cultural and historical events highlighting the shared memories of China and Belgium during World War II.

\nCorrectly confronting history for Japan means far more than simply acknowledging "aggression" and "defeat". At the 102nd anniversary memorial of the 1923 Kanto Massacre, Japanese officials and scholars stressed that lessons from the past should inform vigilance against rising xenophobia in Japan, to prevent such tragedies from repeating.
\nA memorial service was held in Tokyo on Monday, marking the 102nd anniversary of the Chinese victims who were killed following the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake in Japan.
\nVictims' families from China and the Korean Peninsula, alongside prominent figures from Japan, jointly mourned the deceased. They also urged the Japanese government to face history honestly, offering apologies and compensation.
\nOn Sept 1, 1923, a 7.9-magnitude earthquake struck Japan's Kanto area, resulting in over 100,000 people killed or missing. Amid the chaos of the disaster, rumors of Koreans "poisoning wells" started circulating.
\nNearly 800 Chinese residents and more than 6,000 Korean residents in Japan fell victim to massacres orchestrated by Japanese military, law enforcement and nationalist extremists, according to studies.
\nMizuho Fukushima, leader of Japan's Social Democratic Party, urged the Japanese government to face the issue honestly. She called on the government to fulfill any compensation decisions already made and to thoroughly investigate the facts while addressing the victims' families.
\nManiwa Naoyuki, member of Japan's Koto City Assembly, warned that xenophobia is spreading in Japan, with serious discrimination against foreigners, while the government and political leaders continue to avoid confronting history.
\n"It is not enough to focus solely on the victims of the atomic bomb. The suffering of Asian countries must also be recognized and passed down through generations. Textbooks should accurately record Japan's responsibility for its aggression, prompting the government to formally apologize and reflect," he added.
\nIn a speech delivered at the memorial service, Wang Lin, minister counselor at the Chinese embassy in Japan, attributed the immediate cause of the massacre to the deliberate spread of rumors that incited social panic.
\n"The roots of this tragedy can be traced back to Japan's turn toward militarism and the prevalence of extreme nationalism and xenophobia during that era," she said.
\nWang emphasized that, 102 years later, Japanese society seems to be forgetting this painful chapter of history. She said the Japanese government has shown signs of regression on historical issues, and some individuals even openly distort or deny history. Wang also called for efforts to uphold justice and prevent a reversal of history.
\nOn Sunday, another memorial event on the same theme was held at Meiji University.
\nVictims from China and the Korean Peninsula, as well as members of the Japanese Diet from four political parties, revealed the historical truth of the 1923 Kanto Massacre, emphasizing that the Japanese government bears inescapable responsibility. Japanese scholars and officials stressed the need to remain vigilant against current xenophobia and to respect the rights of foreigners.
\nHideya Sugio of the Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan stated that the government should acknowledge historical facts and apologize to the victims and their families. He emphasized that commemorating history is not only about looking back but also about serving as a warning for the present, and that xenophobia and historical denial must not be allowed to spread in contemporary politics.
\nSocial Democratic Party's Rasaru Ishii said that "honestly confronting history" means the government must take responsibility for uncovering the truth. It should apologize to the victims and provide compensation, and ensure that history is passed on to future generations through monuments, memorial ceremonies, and inclusion in school education, so that such tragedies do not recur.
\nHiroshi Tanaka, co-representative of the Liaison Committee on Alien Rights Law, called on Japan to confront historical issues as part of its social development. He also urged the country to consider how to promote a sense of equality and inclusion for foreign residents.

A helicopter carrying those injured in the earthquake that killed thousands and destroyed villages in eastern Afghanistan takes off in Mazar Dara, Kunar Province on Monday.
\nKABUL — Rescuers in Afghanistan will try to reach isolated villages on Tuesday in the eastern region of Kunar, the epicenter of an earthquake that has killed over 1,400 people and injured more than 3,000, authorities said on Tuesday.
\nRescue operations were carried out in four villages in Kunar on Monday after the quake struck and efforts will now be focused on reaching more remote mountain areas, said Ehsanullah Ehsan, the provincial head of disaster management.
\n"We cannot accurately predict how many bodies might still be trapped under the rubble," said Ehsan. "Our effort is to complete these operations as soon as possible and to begin distributing aid to the affected families."
\nOne of Afghanistan's worst earthquakes, with a magnitude of 6, struck around midnight local time on Monday, at a shallow depth of 10 kilometers, killing at least 1,411 people in the eastern provinces of Kunar and Nangarhar.
\nMountainous terrain and inclement weather have hindered rescuers from reaching remote areas along the Pakistani border where the quake flattened mud-brick homes.
\nGaining access for vehicles on the narrow mountain roads was the main obstacle for relief work, said Ehsan, adding machinery was being brought in to clear roads of debris.
\nOn Tuesday, a line of ambulances was on the damaged mountain road trying to reach Kunar villages, as helicopters flew in, bringing aid supplies and taking the injured to hospitals, according to a Reuters witness.
\nSome of the injured have been transferred to hospitals in Kabul and the adjacent province of Nangarhar, said Ehsan.
\nThousands of children were at risk, the United Nations Children's Fund warned on Tuesday.
\nUNICEF said it was sending medicines, warm clothing, tents and tarpaulins for shelter, and hygiene items such as soap, detergent, towels, sanitary pads, and water buckets.
\n"Our response focuses on addressing urgent needs across health, safe water, sanitation, nutrition, child protection, temporary shelter, and psychosocial support to ensure that children and families receive life-saving assistance as quickly as possible," Tajudeen Oyewale, UNICEF's representative in Afghanistan, said in a statement.
\nTaliban soldiers were deployed in the area, providing help and security. The disaster has further stretched the nation, already grappling with a sharp drop in foreign aid.
\n"National and international organizations are present in the area, have organized their assistance, and, God willing, aid will be distributed in an orderly manner," said Ehsan.
\nRescue teams and authorities are trying to dispose of animal carcasses quickly so as to minimize the risk of contamination to water resources, a UN official said on Monday.
\n"Damaged roads, ongoing aftershocks, and remote locations of many villages severely impede the delivery of aid," the World Health Organization said in a situation update, adding that over 12,000 people had been affected by the quake.
\nAfghanistan has been badly hit by US President Donald Trump's decision in January to cut funding to its humanitarian arm USAID and reductions in other foreign aid programs.
\nHumanitarian officials said the shrinking of funding was hampering the response to the quake.
\nIn the wake of the latest disaster, Britain allocated 1 million pounds ($1.35 million) to support the efforts of UN and the International Red Cross in delivering critical healthcare and emergency supplies to affected Afghans.
\nIndia delivered 1,000 family tents to Kabul and was moving 15 metric tons of food supplies to Kunar, with more relief materials to be sent on Tuesday.
\nAfghanistan is prone to deadly earthquakes, particularly in the Hindu Kush mountain range, where the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates meet. A 6.1-magnitude earthquake that killed 1,000 people in the eastern region in 2022 was the first major natural disaster faced by the Taliban government.

\nGaining access for vehicles on the narrow mountain roads was the main obstacle for relief work, said Ehsan, adding machinery was being brought in to clear roads of debris.
\nOn Tuesday, a line of ambulances was on the damaged mountain road trying to reach Kunar villages, as helicopters flew in, bringing aid supplies and taking the injured to hospitals, according to a Reuters witness.
\nSome of the injured have been transferred to hospitals in Kabul and the adjacent province of Nangarhar, said Ehsan.
\nThousands of children were at risk, the United Nations Children's Fund warned on Tuesday.
\nUNICEF said it was sending medicines, warm clothing, tents and tarpaulins for shelter, and hygiene items such as soap, detergent, towels, sanitary pads, and water buckets.
\n"Our response focuses on addressing urgent needs across health, safe water, sanitation, nutrition, child protection, temporary shelter, and psychosocial support to ensure that children and families receive life-saving assistance as quickly as possible," Tajudeen Oyewale, UNICEF's representative in Afghanistan, said in a statement.
\nTaliban soldiers were deployed in the area, providing help and security. The disaster has further stretched the nation, already grappling with a sharp drop in foreign aid.
\n"National and international organizations are present in the area, have organized their assistance, and, God willing, aid will be distributed in an orderly manner," said Ehsan.
\nRescue teams and authorities are trying to dispose of animal carcasses quickly so as to minimize the risk of contamination to water resources, a UN official said on Monday.
\n"Damaged roads, ongoing aftershocks, and remote locations of many villages severely impede the delivery of aid," the World Health Organization said in a situation update, adding that over 12,000 people had been affected by the quake.
\nAfghanistan has been badly hit by US President Donald Trump's decision in January to cut funding to its humanitarian arm USAID and reductions in other foreign aid programs.
\nHumanitarian officials said the shrinking of funding was hampering the response to the quake.
\nIn the wake of the latest disaster, Britain allocated 1 million pounds ($1.35 million) to support the efforts of UN and the International Red Cross in delivering critical healthcare and emergency supplies to affected Afghans.
\nIndia delivered 1,000 family tents to Kabul and was moving 15 metric tons of food supplies to Kunar, with more relief materials to be sent on Tuesday.
\nAfghanistan is prone to deadly earthquakes, particularly in the Hindu Kush mountain range, where the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates meet. A 6.1-magnitude earthquake that killed 1,000 people in the eastern region in 2022 was the first major natural disaster faced by the Taliban government.

Activists wave on a boat taking part in a civilian flotilla bound for Gaza, aiming to break the Israeli blockade and deliver humanitarian aid, in Barcelona, Spain, on Sunday.
\nBelgium became the latest European country to recognize a Palestinian state at the upcoming United Nations conference later this month as the opposition to Israel's conduct in Gaza has gained further momentum.
\nBelgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot said on Tuesday that Palestine will be recognized by his country at the UN session, adding to international pressure on Israel after similar moves by Australia, Britain, Canada and France.
\nPrevot said his country would impose sanctions on Israel, which would include a ban on the import of products from illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank. And there would also be a review of public procurement policies with Israeli companies and the designation of Israeli ministers as persona non grata in Belgium.
\nPalestine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates welcomed the announcement by Belgium, posting on X that this "principled position is fully consistent with international law", UN resolutions, and "the protection of the two-state solution". The post added that Belgium's decision "represents vital support for achieving a just and lasting peace".
\nThe ministry called on all nations that have not yet recognized the State of Palestine to do so urgently and to intensify practical efforts "to halt Israel's crimes of genocide, forced displacement, starvation, and annexation", while opening a genuine political horizon to resolve the conflict and end the Israeli occupation.
\nMeanwhile in Kuwait, the 165th Gulf Cooperation Council Ministerial meeting on Monday underscored the necessity of reaching an immediate and comprehensive agreement for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
\nIt called for the release of hostages and detainees, protecting the civilian population, and facilitating the urgent and uninterrupted delivery of humanitarian aid.
\nThe GCC meeting also condemned Israel's "crime of genocide", ethnic cleansing, the destruction of civilian infrastructure, displacement, and the "deliberate siege policy" that has led to famine in Gaza.
\nThe GCC countries comprise the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, and Oman.
\nThey demanded that the international community take immediate action to stop these crimes committed by the Israeli occupation government and take serious steps to prevent them and hold perpetrators accountable.
\nNew deaths recorded
\nGaza's health authority recorded 13 new deaths, including three children, "due to starvation and malnutrition over the past 24 hours", in the strip, bringing the total number of hunger-related deaths to 361, with 130 of them children.
\nAlso at least 40 other Palestinians, including several aid seekers, have been killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza since dawn, according to Al Jazeera reporting from Deir al-Balah.
\nA leading group of experts from the International Association of Genocide Scholars, or IAGS, passed a resolution that said legal criteria have been met to establish that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, including crimes against humanity and war crimes.
\nThe Israeli Foreign Ministry has rejected the IAGS resolution as "disgraceful", saying it was "an embarrassment to the legal profession and to any academic standard".
\nMeanwhile, a global fleet of boats carrying humanitarian aid, finally departed from Barcelona in Spain for Gaza on Monday after bad weather forced them to turn around earlier.
\nThe "Global Sumud Flotilla", the largest maritime mission to Gaza, brings together more than 50 ships and delegations from more than 40 countries, in an effort to break Israel's illegal blockade.
\n"Israel's main challenge right now is not the military offensive in Gaza but also the collapse of its international reputation," Nagapushpa Devendra, a West Asia analyst and research scholar at the University of Erfurt in Germany, told China Daily.
\n"Countries that used to avoid direct confrontation with Israel are starting to take stronger steps — some Europeans are moving toward sanctions, Gulf states are pushing harder for accountability, and international activists are organizing flotillas to challenge the blockade," she said. "The diplomatic climate is shifting."

\nGAZA STRIP — September marks the start of the school year for children in many parts around the world, but for the Palestinian students living in war-torn Gaza, the prospect of returning to school this September continues to be a distant hope — just like last year.
\nAt the entrance of a displacement camp in the central Gaza Strip city of Deir al-Balah, 12-year-old Maram sat quietly, with an old, dust-covered school bag placed beside her.
\n"Every year I used to go with my mother to buy new notebooks and pencils, but for three years we haven't bought anything," she said in a low voice.
\n"I took my school bag with me, but I cannot use it anymore. At this time of year, we used to prepare to return to class, but now I only see the tent. Sometimes I write on old papers, so I don't forget the letters," she said.
\nNext to her, Ahmed, a 15-year-old tenth grader from Deir al-Balah, voiced similar frustration.
\n"I dreamed of becoming an engineer and building a house for my family, but everything has stopped. Since the beginning of the war, we haven't been able to attend school. Some of my friends were killed, others displaced, and I haven't seen them for months," he said.
\n"If more years pass without studying, what will I become? A young man without knowledge or a degree?" he asked.
\nIncluding the two children, over 660,000 students in Gaza currently lack access to classrooms and educational materials as the conflict, now in its 23rd month, continues to devastate infrastructure and turn schools into shelters for displaced families, according to data released by the United Nations.
\nAt the al-Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, Abu Mohammed al-Hawwash, a father of five, expressed deep concern. "The war destroyed schools and universities and killed students and teachers," he said.
\nSome displaced teachers are trying to fill the gap with improvised lessons, but their efforts remain limited.
\nSuad al-Awadi, a 35-year-old Arabic teacher who now lives in a tent in Khan Younis, said that she gathers groups of children in the camp and tries to teach them basic reading and writing.
\n"Sometimes we write letters in the sand or on torn papers, and I repeat the alphabet and simple words with them, so they don't completely forget," she said. Even if they are given some opportunities to attend classes, many children already face significant learning difficulties caused by the conflict.
\n"They have lost relatives or seen their homes destroyed, and when I try to teach them letters, they sometimes cry or talk about what happened to them. Their minds are filled with fear," al-Awadi explained.

The Getu River area, with its intricate karst landscapes and over 270 developed climbing routes, has become an increasingly popular destination among sport climbers from both China and abroad.
\n"This year, seven new routes were set in the cave, and two of them are still on my list to tackle. I hope to return and take on those next time," said Song Xiao, a 29-year-old outdoor climbing enthusiast, standing at the entrance of Chuanshang Cave, which is located in Southwest China's Guizhou province.
\nThis marks Song's second consecutive year climbing at the site, drawn to the unique natural features and technical demands of the routes.
\nChuanshang Cave, part of the Getu River Scenic Area in Ziyun county, Anshun city of Guizhou province, is a massive natural cavern measuring 50 meters high, 70 meters wide and 137 meters long.
\nPerched high on a mountainside, the cave appears as a gaping hole, naturally bored into the rock over the course of millennia.
\nBelow it lies an even larger cave, Dachuan Cave, that reaches 116m in height, 25m in width and stretches for 270m.
\nThe two are connected by a tunnel, forming a unique "cave-within-a-cave" structure.
\nThe Getu River area, with its intricate karst landscape, offers over 270 developed climbing routes ranging in difficulty from 5A to 9A+. This region is also known for its generations of Miao ethnic "spidermen" or goro in the Miao dialect, who traditionally practiced free solo climbing to collect swallow nests and fertilizer from cliff faces. This centuries-old skill, once essential for survival, has now evolved into a cultural performance at the scenic area.
\nAs Song and other climbers scaled Chuanshang Cave with safety equipment, Wang Mingde, the 35-year-old son of a renowned local spiderman, performed unprotected solo climbs in Dachuan Cave below. While the goro tradition faces challenges in inheritance, the growing popularity of modern sport climbing offers a new pathway for preserving these skills.
\nSong, a champion in natural wall climbing from Sichuan province, was first captivated by outdoor climbing at age 20. Over the past eight years, he has competed across China and now works as a coach at five climbing gyms in Chengdu.
\n"The number of climbers has surged in the last two years," he noted, adding that the sport attracts people of all ages and professions who start in gyms before venturing outdoors.
\nThe rise of climbing events has also boosted the sport's profile. In September 2024, Song returned to Getu River for a series of climbing competitions, where he met young athletes from over 20 countries and regions, including the United States, Australia and Chile, for the 2024 IFSC Climbing Youth World Championships.
\nAn American climber named Juliet, who attempted multiple routes with her mother and coach Tiffany, described the cave as "diverse, challenging and ideal for improving skills", while praising the stunning scenery.
\nAs one of China's most typical karst regions, Guizhou has actively promoted itself as a hub for mountain sports, hosting international climbing events like last month's 2025 IFSC Asian Youth Championships and the upcoming Guiyang leg of the 2025 IFSC Climbing World Cup on Sept 12-13.
\n"At a climbing base in the city of Liupanshui, I even saw groups of enthusiasts in their 50s and 60s from South Korea waiting in line to climb," Song said. "The competition-driven momentum in Guizhou is undeniable."
\nHaving also participated in the recently concluded 2025 "Climbing Week" event, Song emphasized that such activities provide more opportunities for climbers and play a key role in popularizing the sport.
\n"The allure of natural wall climbing lies in the dialogue between humans and nature, and in continually pushing one's limits," he said.

Fans from all over China gather in Fengming Cave in Cuantang village, Yanhe Tujia autonomous county, Tongren city, Guizhou province, to watch local grassroots teams compete in the inaugural Yanhe Cave Basketball Invitational Tournament.
\nGUIYANG — Cars lined up in long queues, as thousands of spectators from across China flocked to watch a unique basketball tournament held deep inside a cave in Southwest China's Guizhou province.
\nThe inaugural Yanhe Cave Basketball Invitational Tournament was staged in Fengming Cave in Cuantang village, Yanhe Tujia autonomous county, Tongren city.
\nSituated near the junction of Guizhou, Hunan, Chongqing and Hubei, the event brought together 12 grassroots teams.
\nBanners along the road to Cuantang village from Guanzhou town proclaimed the event "a must-visit destination for basketball fans".
\nCars traveling along the winding mountain road leading into the village displayed license plates from provinces as far away as Zhejiang.
\nFrom above, Cuantang village, located 17 kilometers from the county seat, is surrounded by rolling mountains.
\nAt its heart sits Fengming Cave, transformed into a tournament venue with a standard basketball court, bright lights and bleachers packed with fans.
\nChants of encouragement from commentators and supporters echoed as players ran onto the court. The cave ceiling was decorated with ornaments, and the roar of the crowd filled the cavernous space.
\nCuantang village Party chief Wang Chunnian said the cave's seating capacity of 2,500 to 3,000 was far exceeded during the event.
\nMore than 5,000 attended the Aug 25 opening ceremony, and over 6,000 came for the Aug 30 finals.
\n"The cave basketball tournament has paved a new path for integrating culture, sports and tourism in Cuantang village," Wang said.
\nThe village, home to about 1,500 residents, has long relied on rice and corn farming, with locals seeking new opportunities for growth.
\nGuizhou, known for its karst landforms, has, in recent years, promoted outdoor mountain sports such as marathons, trail running, mountain biking, climbing and paragliding.
\n"Caves are a hallmark of karst topography. Counties like Ziyun and Libo have successfully developed climbing, concerts and other cultural and sports activities, gaining market traction," Wang said.
\nInspired by those successes, Cuantang villagers began pooling funds in 2023 to convert Fengming Cave into a basketball venue. Progress stalled due to lack of financing, but momentum returned after nearby Yangnan village unveiled a 5,000-square-meter cave court in July 2024 that attracted national attention.
\nWith new funding and government approval, construction of the Fengming Cave court began in April 2025 and was completed in August.
\nOnce a cool refuge in summer, the cave now combines the natural landscape with modern sporting facilities.
\n"The temperature inside remains between 15 and 25 C all year round," Wang said.
\n"Coupled with its shelter from wind and rain, this cave court, compared to modern venues, has become a must-visit destination for tourists from near and far."
\nPlayers and fans alike embraced the novelty.
\n"It was my first time playing in a cave — the cool temperature, enthusiastic crowd and amazing atmosphere made it unforgettable!" Exclaimed Peng Hongmiao, leader of the Hunan Yongshun team.
\n"I didn't miss a single match from the opening day to the finals. Watching basketball in a cave was truly an eye-opening experience," said fan Tian Xiangyu, who traveled from Hunan by bus.
\nTo enhance the experience, organizers included interactive performances featuring Tujia ethnic dances and songs.
\n"These performances deepened my understanding of my hometown's culture," said Chen Xiyang, a 13-year-old student.
\nThe most direct benefit the nearby villagers got was increased income. Around 30 to 40 stalls and snack shops inside and outside the cave saw brisk business. Zhang Zheng, a vendor from a nearby village, earned around 5,000 yuan ($700) selling popcorn, sausages and soft drinks.
\n"The inaugural cave basketball tournament has brought economic benefits to the villagers," Wang said.
\nCuantang plans to host regular basketball events in the future, using them to link sports, culture and tourism and to create a sustainable path for locals to stay healthy, entertained and economically empowered.

\n"It was my first time playing in a cave — the cool temperature, enthusiastic crowd and amazing atmosphere made it unforgettable!" Exclaimed Peng Hongmiao, leader of the Hunan Yongshun team.
\n"I didn't miss a single match from the opening day to the finals. Watching basketball in a cave was truly an eye-opening experience," said fan Tian Xiangyu, who traveled from Hunan by bus.
\nTo enhance the experience, organizers included interactive performances featuring Tujia ethnic dances and songs.
\n"These performances deepened my understanding of my hometown's culture," said Chen Xiyang, a 13-year-old student.
\nThe most direct benefit the nearby villagers got was increased income. Around 30 to 40 stalls and snack shops inside and outside the cave saw brisk business. Zhang Zheng, a vendor from a nearby village, earned around 5,000 yuan ($700) selling popcorn, sausages and soft drinks.
\n"The inaugural cave basketball tournament has brought economic benefits to the villagers," Wang said.
\nCuantang plans to host regular basketball events in the future, using them to link sports, culture and tourism and to create a sustainable path for locals to stay healthy, entertained and economically empowered.

Alexander Isak completed his dream move to Liverpool from Newcastle United for a British record transfer fee on Monday.
\nLiverpool striker Alexander Isak vowed to make history with the Premier League champion after finally completing his British-record 125-million-pound ($169 million) move from Newcastle on Monday.
\nIsak agreed a reported six-year contract with the Reds after they convinced Newcastle to accept an improved bid ahead of the Premier League's transfer deadline.
\nThe 25-year-old's arrival at Anfield will increase the expectation that Liverpool is set for a dominant period, and Isak is happy to shoulder the burden.
\n"I think it's a mixture of what the club is building, but what they're building on top of what the club already is. The history of the club. Me getting the chance to be a part of this, I want to create history," Isak said.
\n"I want to win trophies. That's ultimately the biggest motivation for me.
\n"I feel like this is the perfect place for me to grow even further, to take my game to the next level and help the team as well."
\nArne Slot's side had a 110 million-pound offer rejected by Newcastle in August, but Isak's determination to force through the move paid off after the transfer saga grew increasingly tetchy.
\nIsak told Newcastle he wanted to leave and, rather than linking up with Eddie Howe's team, spent part of the preseason training alone at his former club Real Sociedad.
\nHe was left out of Newcastle's preseason tour of Asia with what was said to be a thigh injury, and accused the Magpies hierarchy of breaking a commitment that he could leave if a suitable offer came in from a top club.
\nHowe had repeatedly stated his desire to keep Isak, who scored 27 times in 42 appearances in all competitions last season.
\nIsak's goals helped secure Champions League qualification and ended Newcastle's 56-year trophy drought with its League Cup final win over his new club Liverpool.
\nBut, Newcastle's swoop for Stuttgart striker Nick Woltemade on Saturday paved the way for the Swedish forward to secure his dream move.
\n"It has been a long summer, but I'm just looking forward, not looking at the past," Isak said.
\n"It's done now, and I know I can get back to doing what I love the most. Really looking forward to it. I want to win everything."
\nUnprecedented spree
\nIsak's move to Anfield takes Liverpool's spending on new signings to an estimated 416 million pounds since the end of last season.
\nFlorian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Giorgi Mamardashvili, Armin Pecsi and Giovanni Leoni are Liverpool's other major new recruits.
\nThe Reds' spending has shattered the previous summer window record outlay by a Premier League club of 400 million pounds, set by Chelsea in 2023.
\nThe Reds had already broken their own transfer record to land Leverkusen playmaker Wirtz for an initial 100 million pounds, before Isak's move set a new mark for a fee paid by a British club.
\nChelsea held the previous record with its 107-million-pound signing of Enzo Fernandez in 2023.
\nSlot is looking to cement Liverpool's hold on the Premier League title, while also challenging for a seventh Champions League crown.
\nIf Liverpool can win the Premier League again this season it would take it past Manchester United alone as the most successful team in English top-flight history, with 21 league titles.
\nThe Reds have not won the title in successive seasons since claiming three in a row from 1982-84.
\nWith Isak now the fulcrum of Liverpool's formidable attack, Slot will be under pressure to deliver the record-breaking title.
\nThe Dutchman has a wealth of forward options, with new signings Isak, Wirtz and Ekitike joining Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo and Federico Chiesa.
\nThe spending spree marks a dramatic shift in policy for Liverpool, with Chiesa the only senior arrival at Anfield during the 2024 summer window, for an initial fee of 10 million pounds.
\nLuis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Jarell Quansah, Caoimhin Kelleher, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Tyler Morton and Ben Doak have all been sold, with the club recouping around 190 million pounds.
\nSlot's men already sit top of the league, the only club with a 100 percent record after beating title rival Arsenal 1-0 on Sunday to make it three successive victories.

A Chinese engineer and a Serbian technician inspect the track construction at the Novi Sad site of the Serbia section of the Hungary-Serbia Railway.
\nChina and Serbia's deep ties, strengthened through high-tech Belt and Road projects, stand as a model of partnership bringing regional economic and social benefits.
\nThe relationship between China and Serbia has a long history, rooted in traditional friendship. In recent years, bolstered by cooperation in infrastructure development supported by high technology, the bilateral ties have continued to reach new heights.
\nIn 2013, under the Belt and Road Initiative, China reached a cooperation agreement with Serbia and Hungary to jointly upgrade the Hungary-Serbia Railway, making it a flagship project of collaboration between China and Central and Eastern European countries. In March 2022, the Serbian section of the railway, connecting Belgrade to Novi Sad, was the first to begin operations. The full railway is expected to be operational this year, becoming a crucial transport hub linking Eastern and Central Europe.
\n"Under the framework of the BRI, Serbia and China are jointly developing highly significant infrastructure projects. Chinese companies are operating very successfully in Serbia, and Serbia is satisfied with their performance.
\n"China, too, is pleased with its partnership with Serbia. Serbia is eager to continue building bridges of friendship between our two nations," said Damjan Jovic, state secretary in Serbia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
\nOfficial data showed that in 2024, bilateral trade between China and Serbia reached $5.73 billion, marking a year-on-year increase of 31.8 percent. Imports from Serbia stood at $2.29 billion.
\nIn building the Belt and Road together, cooperation between China and Serbia stands as a model, particularly in infrastructure development, said Li Ming, Chinese ambassador to Serbia.
\n"Adhering to the principles of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits, we have built numerous bridges, highways and railways in Serbia. These projects have created local jobs and promoted Serbia's economic and social progress while also enhancing connectivity across the Balkan Peninsula and the European continent. By fostering development among countries along the routes, they have injected strong momentum into regional economic integration," Li said.
\nThe Danube Corridor expressway, a key project between the two sides in central and eastern Serbia, spans 68 kilometers and serves as a vital branch of the European E75 highway. Constructed by Shandong Hi-Speed Group with a total value of about €337 million ($373 million), the project is expected to boost tourism, improve the investment climate, and contribute to Serbia's economic growth.
\n"This expressway project is of great significance to the development of eastern Serbia and serves as a crucial branch of the E75 highway, part of the European road network," said Chang Xuxian, deputy general manager for European region of China Shandong International Economic & Technical Cooperation Group under Shandong Hi-Speed Group and project manager of the Danube Corridor.
\n"The E75 highway corresponds to the Pan-European Corridor X, and our project connects directly to this artery. Upon completion, it will establish a rapid link between the eastern areas of Serbia and the capital, Belgrade, facilitating resource sharing among urban clusters and unlocking potential for economic and tourism growth."
\nConstruction began in August 2021, and a 31.85-km section of the main route was opened to traffic in February. The expansion from a two-lane to a four-lane bidirectional road has eased traffic congestion and marked a significant milestone in the project. The full route is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
\n"I hope that upon its completion, this project will boost our country's economic development, attract more businesses to invest here, draw more tourists to visit, and create more job opportunities for local residents," said a Serbian engineer involved in the project.
\n"At the same time, I look forward to more initiatives like the Danube Corridor in the future, which will allow the peoples of China and Serbia to work together in unity, building the path to the future with concrete actions and further deepening the friendship between our two nations."

The world's first large-scale hybrid wind tower project featuring ultra-high-performance concrete technology.
\nAs global demand for high tower and hybrid tower solutions in the wind power industry surges, particularly in Europe and the Middle East, Shanghai Fengling Renewables has seized the opportunity to pursue international cooperation.
\n"We have engaged in comprehensive dialogues and cooperation negotiations with several European countries, including France, Finland, Poland and Serbia, as well as Middle Eastern nations like Qatar and Saudi Arabia," said Sun Yu, chairman of the company.
\nThese regions not only boast abundant wind energy resources but are vigorously promoting energy transformation, creating a robust demand for efficient and reliable hybrid tower technologies, he added.
\nIn Serbia, for example, Fengling Renewables has partnered with CECEP Wind-power Corporation to develop a 2-gigawatt green energy project. This initiative includes a 1.5 GW onshore wind power component and a 0.5 GW photovoltaic installed capacity.
\n"Serbia urgently needs to transform its energy structure, and our expertise in wind power hybrid tower technology, coupled with our comprehensive industry chain capabilities, provides a solid foundation for this partnership," Sun noted.
\nThe project has now progressed to the systematic planning phase, which encompasses land use, infrastructure layout, and environmental assessments. This marks a critical transition from concept to implementation, setting the stage for future construction and execution.
\nSun emphasized that, in the long term, this project will significantly enhance Serbia's renewable energy capacity and support its 2050 carbon neutrality goal. It is also poised to become a landmark project for Chinese enterprises engaged in green cooperation in Europe.
\nThe innovative aspect of this collaboration lies in the integration of multiple parties' strengths to establish a truly complementary cooperation framework.
\nAll parties share risks and benefits while leveraging their unique strengths: Chinese companies contribute advanced technologies, comprehensive industry chain capabilities, and extensive experience in wind power and photovoltaic projects, while the Serbian government provides strong policy support, land resources and a favorable investment environment.
\nAs one of the largest new energy projects in Europe, it has been incorporated into the Western Balkans Green Corridor strategy and holds significant benchmarking value.
\nThe project can substantially increase the renewable energy capacity in the Western Balkans, aiding the region's integration into the European energy system. Moreover, it will offer replicable experiences for neighboring countries and serve as a model in policy design, investment and financing, as well as the application of advanced technologies.
\nLooking ahead, Fengling Renewables plans to expand its international market presence. "In Central and Eastern Europe, we aim to use the Serbia project as a springboard to expand into neighboring countries and establish a regional green energy cluster," Sun said.
\n"In Central Asia and Southeast Asia, we also see abundant wind and solar energy resources and are actively exploring cooperation opportunities to advance clean energy implementation in these emerging markets," he added.

\nThe project has now progressed to the systematic planning phase, which encompasses land use, infrastructure layout, and environmental assessments. This marks a critical transition from concept to implementation, setting the stage for future construction and execution.
\nSun emphasized that, in the long term, this project will significantly enhance Serbia's renewable energy capacity and support its 2050 carbon neutrality goal. It is also poised to become a landmark project for Chinese enterprises engaged in green cooperation in Europe.
\nThe innovative aspect of this collaboration lies in the integration of multiple parties' strengths to establish a truly complementary cooperation framework.
\nAll parties share risks and benefits while leveraging their unique strengths: Chinese companies contribute advanced technologies, comprehensive industry chain capabilities, and extensive experience in wind power and photovoltaic projects, while the Serbian government provides strong policy support, land resources and a favorable investment environment.
\nAs one of the largest new energy projects in Europe, it has been incorporated into the Western Balkans Green Corridor strategy and holds significant benchmarking value.
\nThe project can substantially increase the renewable energy capacity in the Western Balkans, aiding the region's integration into the European energy system. Moreover, it will offer replicable experiences for neighboring countries and serve as a model in policy design, investment and financing, as well as the application of advanced technologies.
\nLooking ahead, Fengling Renewables plans to expand its international market presence. "In Central and Eastern Europe, we aim to use the Serbia project as a springboard to expand into neighboring countries and establish a regional green energy cluster," Sun said.
\n"In Central Asia and Southeast Asia, we also see abundant wind and solar energy resources and are actively exploring cooperation opportunities to advance clean energy implementation in these emerging markets," he added.
