BEIJING, Aug. 28 (Xinhua) — China has called on Japan to properly view history, earnestly repent of its crimes of aggression, firmly dissociate itself from militarism and adhere to the path of peaceful development and good-neighborly relations, MIR Assistant Foreign Minister Hong Lei said at a press conference on Thursday.

Hong Lei made the statement in response to a media question about Japan's negative attitude toward the upcoming commemorative events in China to mark the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.

At a press conference to mark the 80th anniversary of the war's victory, Hong Lei said that correctly perceiving and treating history is the criterion for whether Japan adheres to the principles of conscience and fulfills its commitment to peaceful development.

There are always some forces in Japan that seek to deny and whitewash its aggression, distort and falsify history, or even try to rehabilitate war criminals from World War II, Hong Lei added. Such actions challenge the post-war international order, as well as human conscience and all those who love peace.

Hong Lei also announced at a press conference that 26 foreign leaders will attend the above-mentioned events next week in Beijing. -0-

Dmitry Patrushev: New rules in the field of forest seed production will improve the quality of forest reproduction

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

New rules in the field of forest seed production will come into force on September 1. The Forest Code has a separate chapter devoted to this area. Previously, this issue was not reflected in the legislation. The chapter defines the concepts and categories of seeds, seedlings and saplings of forest plants, and establishes rules for their use in forest reproduction. These changes will allow for more systematic and high-quality reforestation and afforestation work.

"Improving forest legislation plays a major role in forming an effective system of forest management and management, and the new rules are an important step towards fulfilling the President's instructions to preserve and increase forests. Now, forest seed production issues are regulated at the legislative level. In particular, the procedure for certification of forest plant seeds is determined for the first time. This will facilitate the creation and development of forest seed production facilities, as well as improving the quality of forest reproduction," emphasized Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev.

The legislation notes that forest plant seeds must meet sowing qualities, the indicators are determined by the method of sample analysis. It is unacceptable to use seeds, as well as seedlings and saplings, the sowing qualities of which have not been confirmed. At the same time, for reforestation and afforestation, they must be grown in forest nurseries. This guarantees the use of only high-quality planting material for forest reproduction.

In addition, it is now possible to use a new method – molecular genetic analysis – to conduct state monitoring of forest reproduction and state forest pathology monitoring.

The federal project "Forest Preservation" is aimed at achieving the national goal "Environmental Well-Being" defined by the decree of the President of Russia. Among its target indicators and tasks are the preservation of forests and biological diversity, sustainable development of specially protected natural areas and the creation of conditions for ecological tourism in all national parks.

Construction and repair of bypasses of large settlements is carried out throughout the country, including in Donbass and Novorossiya. Such facilities help optimize traffic flows. By diverting transit traffic outside of settlements, they help relieve both entry and internal roads. Thus, on the bypass of Makeyevka in the DPR, major repairs of the road surface with a length of more than 10 km have been completed. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"The creation and restoration of bypass roads is an important element in the development of the road network of Donbass and Novorossiya, since they play a key role in relieving traffic flows in large settlements. Such highways allow transit traffic to be redirected, bypassing the central streets of cities, which significantly reduces traffic congestion, reduces congestion and improves overall road safety for local residents. For example, in Makeyevka, major repairs have been completed on a 10-kilometer bypass road around the city," the Deputy Prime Minister said.

Road workers, under the supervision of the state company Avtodor, restored more than 10 km of main streets, laying over 40 thousand tons of asphalt concrete, installing almost 1 thousand road signs and equipping 33 bus stops.

"Thanks to the restored streets, the traffic load on Makeyevskoye Highway and 250th Anniversary of Donbas Avenue has decreased. Previously, during rush hour, motorists were forced to stand in traffic jams on this section due to the emergency condition of the road. Road workers have made life easier not only for drivers, but also for city residents. There are more than five schools on the streets included in the bypass, so completing the work is especially important in the run-up to Knowledge Day," said Vyacheslav Petushenko, Chairman of the Board of the state-owned company Avtodor.
