BEIJING, July 17 (Xinhua) — The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Business Forum was held in Beijing on Thursday, where participants discussed issues on promoting green energy transformation and deepening connectivity within the SCO.

The event, themed “Promoting Shanghai Spirit, Businesses in Action,” was attended by about 400 government and business representatives from China and overseas.

Gao Yunlong, Vice Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and Chairman of the All-China Association of Industry and Commerce, noted that the SCO is a regional international organization with the largest territory and population in the world, and trade and economic cooperation is a powerful engine for the dynamic development of the SCO.

According to him, China is ready to work with all parties to further align development strategies, promote improvement of the quality and level of trade and economic cooperation, and ensure stability and continuity of production chains and supply chains.

SCO Secretary General Nurlan Yermekbayev said that the SCO has unique resources and political will to form a model of open, pragmatic and mutually beneficial economic cooperation.

He added that direct interaction between enterprises and investors, as well as between regions, is intended to become a reliable basis for strengthening industrial cooperation, developing new markets and implementing specific projects specifically under the SCO brand.

The President of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation, Sergei Katyrin, noted that the powerful economic, natural and human resources possessed by the SCO countries create serious preconditions for the accelerated development of trade between member states and the implementation of joint economic projects.

“The high dynamics of Russia’s trade turnover with the SCO countries is supported by the growth of settlements in national currencies, the share of which currently amounts to more than 92 percent,” said S. Katyrin, adding that increasing multifaceted interaction with SCO partners is one of Russia’s foreign policy priorities.

“In the context of modern global challenges, instability in external markets and rapid digital transformation, we see enormous potential in developing economic ties in the SCO space,” emphasized Temir Sariev, President of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic, noting that Kyrgyzstan welcomes cooperation in the technical, investment and administrative spheres with partners from the SCO countries.

Wang Mingda, a representative of the Marketing and Financing Department of China Energy Engineering Corporation Limited, said that in the future, the company, adhering to the concept of green development, will enhance the coordination and mutual recognition of green standards and norms with the SCO countries, promote the construction of more future cities, smart grids and smart parks in these countries, so as to make China's contribution to the green transformation of the SCO countries.

The event, hosted by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT), also saw the release of a report on the development of SCO supply chains. -0-

BERLIN, July 17 (Xinhua) — China's dual role as a stabilizing force and a driver of innovation in global supply chains is becoming increasingly visible as companies around the world face growing uncertainty, rising operating costs and challenges from climate change, Schneider Electric executive vice president Yin Zheng told Xinhua in an exclusive interview ahead of the third China International Supply Chain Exposition (CISCE).

Yin Zheng noted that China’s fully integrated industrial system gives it a unique position in the global supply chain. “The traditional efficiency-oriented model is no longer sufficient,” he said. “The industry now needs not only efficient supply chains, but also sustainable and green supply chains, and this is a view increasingly shared by different industries.”

According to Yin Zheng, CISCE is a timely platform for global manufacturers to engage in international dialogue and deepen industrial cooperation amid ongoing global uncertainty.

“That’s why we are participating,” he said. “CISCE is a window connecting China with the world and a new calling card for China’s high-level openness.”

For multinational companies like Schneider Electric, CISCE is more than a platform to showcase innovation, he said. CISCE provides a valuable opportunity to find new partners and explore ways to transform and modernize industrial supply chains, he stressed.

“China is the most important engine of global growth,” he said, adding that the rise of new productive forces in China, especially in digital and green development, opens up greater opportunities for technology companies.

China's industrial ecosystem is increasingly characterized by openness and cooperation, and more companies are joining in joint innovation and knowledge sharing, he said.

Looking to the future, Yin Zheng noted that the global industrial landscape is undergoing profound changes, driven by the rapid development of artificial intelligence and the accelerated movement toward sustainable development. To fully leverage these trends, he called for closer cooperation between industry, academia and government.

“Digitalization and green transformation are fundamentally changing the way global supply chains operate,” he said. “Schneider Electric will continue to leverage China’s momentum and collaborate with local partners to bring new technologies to all parts of the supply chain.” –0–

BEIJING, July 17 (Xinhua) — A total of 2.085 million fingerlings of five rare fish species, including common taimen, burbot and Siberian grayling, have been released into the Irtysh River basin in Altay Prefecture of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region this year, according to the region's department of agriculture and rural affairs.

As the department added, approximately 1.2 million more fry of three species of commercial fish were released into Lake Urungu on the territory of the district this year.

This is a key step in the efforts of local authorities to restore and protect aquatic biological resources, as well as improve the ecological environment of water bodies, the department said in a statement.

The Altai District has six national-level zones for the conservation of aquatic product germplasm resources, where 360 million fish fry can be grown per year. Thanks to the ecological restoration system formed with the release of fish fry as one of the main methods, the fish population in the district increased by 10 percent year-on-year in 2025, the department noted.

The water quality in the Irtysh River basin has remained at class I for the third year in a row, said department official Qu Hong.

Let us recall that the Irtysh River flows through the territories of three countries: Kazakhstan, Russia and China. It originates from the southern slope of the Altai Mountains, flows into the Ob and carries its waters to the Arctic Ocean. -0-

BEIJING, July 17 (Xinhua) — The organizing committee of the Xinjiang International Mining and Machinery Expo said on Thursday that two specialized forums dedicated to Central Asia will be added to the event, which will be held from July 18 to 20, 2025.

The first forum will be devoted to issues of cooperation between Central Asia and the Silk Road countries in the mining industry, while the second will discuss issues of development of the mining industry in the context of the construction of the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway.

According to Hu Yaoguang, Secretary General of the Organizing Committee of the Expo, 2025-2026 have been declared the “Years of High-Quality Development of China-Central Asia Cooperation.” Within the framework of this cooperation, six priority areas have been approved: unimpeded trade, industrial investment, infrastructure connectivity, “green” mining, agricultural modernization, and people-to-people exchanges. This creates political support for the successful implementation of the projects.

According to him, the second China-Central Asia summit was recently held in Astana /Kazakhstan/, during which China and the five Central Asian countries reached a number of cooperation agreements, giving new impetus to interaction in the region. Against this background, the addition of two Central Asian forums to the Xinjiang Mining Expo is aimed at further deepening and specifying China's multilateral cooperation with the Central Asian countries.

The mining industry is one of the key sectors in the Central Asian economy and an important area of cooperation between China and the countries in the region. Since its establishment, the Xinjiang Mining Expo has always paid great attention to building a platform for mining exchanges between China and Central Asia.

Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region /Northwest China/, as a key area of the Silk Road Economic Belt and with the geographical advantage of a common border with Central Asian countries, serves as a frontier for cooperation in the mining industry. The construction of the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway, a landmark cooperation project between the three countries under the Belt and Road Initiative, will dramatically improve the region's transport and logistics conditions, opening up new opportunities for cooperation in the mining sector. -0-
