Tbilisi, September 26 (Xinhua) — A scientific conference in honor of the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War was held at Tbilisi State University on Thursday. Around 100 representatives from Georgian universities, think tanks, and media outlets participated in the conference.

The academic conference was jointly organized by the Chinese Embassy in Georgia, the Center for China and Southeast Asian Studies, and Tbilisi State University. Chinese Ambassador to Georgia Zhou Qian, Rector of Tbilisi State University Jaba Samushia, and Director of the Center for China and Southeast Asian Studies Beka Natsvlishvili attended the event and delivered remarks.

In his speech, Chinese Ambassador to Georgia Zhou Qian comprehensively covered the enormous sacrifices and historic contribution of the Chinese people to the victory in the World Anti-Fascist War. He emphasized that the Global Governance Initiative, proposed by Chinese President Xi Jinping, has contributed Chinese wisdom and approaches to improving global governance.

According to him, China intends to join Georgia and other countries in upholding the results of World War II, international justice and equality, and jointly building a community with a shared future for humanity.

Tbilisi State University Rector Jaba Samushia stated at the conference that the Japanese "Unit 731" committed atrocities in China, causing enormous suffering to the civilian population. Today, China has freed itself from aggression and oppression and has achieved internationally recognized success in socio-economic development and scientific and technological innovation. Georgia is ready to learn from China's development experience.

Beka Natsvlishvili, Director of the Center for China and Southeast Asian Studies, noted that China made a significant contribution to the resistance against the Japanese fascist invasion and to achieving final victory in World War II. Research on the history of World War II should not be limited to the European theater of war; more attention should be paid to the Eastern Front, China's sacrifices, and its contribution.

Tbilisi State University also hosted a photo exhibition dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. –0–
