The Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was a "Very Important Part" of the World Anti-Fascist War

Rana Mitter, professor of American-Asian relations at Harvard University's Kennedy School, told reporters that the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was a "very important part" of the World Anti-Fascist War and China's contribution to World War II should be more visible.

Mitter said that after the Lugou Bridge Incident on July 7, 1937, Japan's war of aggression against China was in full swing. At the time, most foreign observers thought China's chances of victory were slim, but China put up a determined fight and the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression "changed everything."

Mitter is the author of China, the Forgotten Ally: The Complete History of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in My Eyes. In his view, after Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, China's stubborn resistance was of great importance. Millions of Japanese soldiers were sent to the Chinese front rather than to other parts of the Asia-Pacific region. Without China's contribution, it would have been "especially difficult" to achieve a common victory for the anti-fascist coalition.

Specialists from the city economy complex have begun rehabilitating the cascade of Yasenevskiye ponds in the southwest of the capital. Their total area is 1.4 hectares. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing and Public Utilities and Improvement Petr Biryukov.

"The Upper, Middle and Lower Yasenevskiye ponds are located on the territory of the park on Paustovsky Street, this is a favorite place for local residents to relax. But now the reservoirs are in an unsatisfactory condition: large volumes of silt deposits have accumulated at the bottom, which has led to a decrease in depth and active overgrowth of algae, and the destruction of coastal strips is observed. In this regard, a decision was made to carry out a comprehensive rehabilitation of the ponds," said Pyotr Biryukov.

The ponds will be cleared of silt deposits, the total volume of which is more than three thousand cubic meters. Then specialists will form the bed of the reservoirs and install a water-resistant layer, which will increase the maximum depth to the required marks.

After that, the structure of the coastal strip, over 800 meters long, will be repaired using gravel and crushed stone. Three zones of the bioplateau with an area of over 348 square meters will be updated here. In the warm season, about 5.7 thousand aquatic plants will be planted on them. The work of the water discharge structures will also be restored. The rehabilitation of the ponds is planned to be completed by the end of this year.

The city's water bodies are regularly inspected. If problems are identified, a decision is made on rehabilitation. The list of water bodies is compiled annually taking into account the wishes of Muscovites. This year, 19 capital ponds are planned to be renovated.

This year, 19 reservoirs will be put in order in Moscow

The activities for the rehabilitation of urban water bodies correspond to the goals and objectives of the national project "Infrastructure for life". You can learn more about Russia's national projects and the capital's contribution at special page.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

A school building with an area of over 6.6 thousand square meters was built in the center of the capital using city budget funds. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction Vladimir Efimov.

"A new educational facility for 300 children with an area of over 6.6 thousand square meters has been built in the Presnensky District. It was built as part of the capital's Address Investment Program. The project was based on the idea of creating a unique element of social infrastructure with efficient use of the existing territory. The site is located on two terraces with a difference of almost two meters. By increasing the height of the school to five floors and its U-shaped configuration, it was possible to minimize the development area, create spacious areas for recreation and sports, harmoniously fit the building into the surrounding landscape, and also maintain the ability to drive emergency services. The building appeared at the address: Bolshoy Tishinsky Pereulok, Building 39," said Vladimir Efimov.

The modern infrastructure of the educational building is focused on the comfort and socialization of children.

"The school offers everything necessary for the development of technical and creative thinking – from an IT polygon and 3D programming to classrooms that take into account the requirements for the modern educational process. There is a media library, sports and gymnastics halls, a dining hall with panoramic windows. All the main areas of the school have access to the courtyard. Corridors and recreation areas are concentrated around the central multifunctional multi-light space located between the first and third floors," said the head of the Moscow City Civil Engineering Department.

Alexey Alexandrov.

The central part of the facade is completely glazed. The entrance lobby and recreation area are located behind the transparent elements. The end part of the northern facade contains a recreation area, which can be accessed from the dining room.

The building is distinguished by its original architecture, its unusual shape is given by the breaks on the parapets, as well as the volumetric elements on the facade, made of clinker tiles and metal cassettes. Due to the large number of windows, a lot of sunlight penetrates into the building.

The school yard was landscaped, with picturesque recreation areas separated by lawns, bushes and trees, and sports grounds were also equipped.

Particular attention was paid to the safety of students and staff: the territory is fenced, and gates and wickets with intercom systems are installed for passage. In addition, the school has created conditions for children with disabilities.

Earlier, Sergei Sobyanin spoke about the completion of construction educational building in the Presnensky district. The construction of educational facilities in the central districts of Moscow underlines the pragmatic approach to the development of urban infrastructure and the focus on creating a balanced environment in which the learning process becomes accessible to every young resident of the capital.

Construction of social facilities in Moscow corresponds to the goals and initiatives of the national project "Infrastructure for life". You can learn more about Russia's national projects and the capital's contribution atspecial page.
