Beijing, January 31 (Xinhua) — Chinese authorities have launched a pilot program in Beijing allowing patients to receive online consultations during their first visit to a doctor. The program aims to use digital services to improve access to high-quality medical care.

Previously, online consultations were typically only available for follow-up visits after an in-person appointment. Services provided under the year-long pilot program include a preliminary online consultation, online diagnostics, and home delivery of prescribed medications.

The pilot program was initially launched in two leading pediatric hospitals in the Chinese capital. Its areas of focus include pediatric growth, development, nutrition, and dermatology. According to the city's health committee, these departments were chosen based on high demand for treatment, a high proportion of patients from other regions, and the relatively manageable clinical risks associated with online consultations.

Beijing boasts some of the most advanced medical facilities in China and attracts a large number of patients from across the country. The launch of online consultations for initial consultations is expected to reduce the burden on hospitals and patients, improve service quality, and help narrow the gap in access to healthcare, the committee added.

Washington, January 31 (Xinhua) — The US Department of Justice has released a new batch of documents, comprising more than 3 million pages, in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Principal Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche announced this at a press conference on Friday, adding that the materials were released more than a month after the deadline set by Congress.

"Today we are releasing over 3 million pages of documents, as well as over 2,000 videos and 180,000 photographs. This means the department has prepared approximately 3.5 million pages in accordance with the law," said T. Blanch.

During his 2024 presidential campaign, D. Trump promised that if elected, he would release documents related to the J. Epstein case, including the so-called “client list.”

On November 18, 2025, the US Congress overwhelmingly passed a bill requiring the Justice Department to release materials on the Epstein case by December 19. D. Trump signed the bill the following day. –0–

Oslo, January 31 (Xinhua) – No agreement on Greenland has been reached, and the situation remains difficult, Greenlandic Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said in an interview with the Greenlandic Broadcasting Corporation published on Friday.

US President Donald Trump claimed last week on the social media platform TruthSocial that a "framework for a future deal" on Greenland and the wider Arctic region had been developed at a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.

“The government is seeking clarification through the appropriate channels,” said J.-F. Nielsen, adding that D. Trump continues to show interest in acquiring Greenland.

Faced with pressure from the US, J.-F. Nielsen emphasized the importance of strengthening cooperation with NATO and EU partners. "We will step by step strengthen cooperation in business, culture, education, and other areas," he stated.

Speaking about recent visits to Germany and France, J.-F. Nielsen noted that both countries confirmed their support for Greenland.

Greenland, the world's largest island, is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, with Copenhagen retaining control over the island's defense and foreign policy. Since returning to office in 2025, US President Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed a desire to "acquire" Greenland—a move Europe has repeatedly rejected.
