BEIJING, Sept. 27 (Xinhua) — China's modernization, with the primary goal of achieving prosperity for all, is a living interpretation of the "people-first" value orientation, according to a report released Saturday by the Xinhua Institute, a think tank affiliated with the Xinhua news agency.

The paper was entitled “The Theory of Civilization Development – A Look at the Formation of a New Concept of Civilizations Based on Development.”

The core of the development of civilizations lies in “people,” not in “things” or “tools,” the document emphasizes.

According to the report, China's fight against poverty has lifted nearly 100 million rural residents out of poverty. The rural revitalization strategy aims to narrow the gap between urban and rural areas, and pilot shared prosperity zones are exploring new models of shared development. This approach has broken the "rich get richer" paradigm that characterized Western modernization, the report states.

The report also notes that, with the accelerated development of technologies such as artificial intelligence and genome editing, the value orientation of the “people first” principle has become even more relevant.

Only by adhering to this principle can civilization avoid losing control in the waves of technological revolution and achieve harmony between man and nature, man and society, and also with itself, the document states. -0-

Los Angeles, September 27 (Xinhua) — China's statements and actions on climate change enhance its credibility in this important area, Clifford Cobb, a prominent American sustainability scholar and vice president of the American Institute for Postmodern China Studies, said in an interview with Xinhua on Thursday.

As a reminder, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced at the UN Climate Action Summit that China will have largely created a climate-adapted society by 2035.

According to him, by 2035, the country will reduce net economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions by 7-10 percent compared to peak levels, aiming to do better; increase the share of renewable energy in total energy consumption to more than 30 percent; expand the installed capacity of wind and solar power plants more than sixfold compared to 2020, aiming to reach 3,600 GW; increase the total timber stock in forests to more than 24 billion cubic meters; make new energy vehicles the leaders in new car sales; expand the national carbon trading market to cover key high-emitting industries, and overall create a climate-resilient society.

Cobb noted that climate change remains one of the most pressing global challenges, and China's leadership in this area is attracting increasing attention worldwide. Current efforts reflect China's long-term commitment to shaping a shared future in which people and the planet thrive together, he added.

Cobb also stressed the need for closer international cooperation, calling for joint global action to combat climate change and protect humanity's shared future. –0–

Wuhan, September 27 (Xinhua) — China has contributed to the global exchange of experience and inter-civilizational exchanges in river management. China's efforts in managing the Yangtze River have provided other developing countries with a new philosophy and practical path for economic development, according to a think tank report published on Friday.

The report, titled "A Mighty River Nurtures a Great Nation – Achievements, Inspirations and Global Significance of Yangtze River Governance in the New Era," was released by the Xinhua Institute, a think tank affiliated with the Xinhua News Agency, at the 2025 Great Rivers Dialogue in Wuhan, central China's Hubei Province.

The report notes that China's practical actions in managing the Yangtze River challenge the Western discourse of "environmental fundamentalism" and offer developing countries an alternative to old approaches that boil down to "polluting first and cleaning later" or "prioritizing economic growth over the environment."

In the Yangtze River management area, policy measures such as the 10-year fishing ban demonstrate the strategic resolve and historical patience of policymakers, as the full impact will take several years or more to emerge, the report notes.

China's pursuit of high-quality development through the management and protection of the Yangtze River represents innovative practice in the management and protection of major rivers on a global scale while transforming and upgrading development models, according to the document.

“The ideas, technologies, and experiences accumulated in this process become public goods that benefit all of humanity through various channels of international exchange,” the report says.

In addition, it is emphasized that in recent years, China has been actively paying attention to the research and protection of great river basin cultures, organizing activities such as dialogues and seminars to promote inter-civilization exchanges and mutual enrichment of experience in great river management.

These exchanges go beyond simple technology exchanges to reach the level of cultural and philosophical discourse, guiding countries to work together to address global challenges, the report states. -0-

UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 27 (Xinhua) — The U.N. Security Council on Friday failed to adopt a resolution seeking to extend the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), for six months to allow time for diplomacy.

The draft resolution, introduced by China and Russia, received four votes in favor and nine against, with two abstentions, falling short of the required nine votes for approval.

If passed, the resolution would extend the nuclear deal between Iran and the six countries (the UK, Germany, China, Russia, France and the US), as well as Security Council Resolution 2231, which approved the agreement, for another six months, preventing the automatic renewal of UN sanctions against Iran under the snapback mechanism.

The results of Friday's vote exactly matched those of September 19, when a similar draft resolution introduced by the Republic of Korea in its capacity as UN Security Council president was rejected.

On Friday, the document was supported by Algeria, China, Pakistan, and Russia. Guyana and the Republic of Korea abstained. The remaining nine Security Council members voted against.

The United Kingdom, France, and Germany—the three European countries participating in the JCPOA—announced that they had triggered the sanctions snapback mechanism on August 28, notifying the Security Council of Tehran's "non-compliance." This mechanism is scheduled to enter into force on September 28 unless the Security Council takes other action.

In accordance with Resolution 2231, UN sanctions in force prior to its adoption are automatically renewed 30 days after such notification, unless the Security Council decides otherwise.

However, the legality of this step by the EU3 is disputed, as it did not invoke the Dispute Resolution Mechanism provided for in the JCPOA and Resolution 2231.

Resolution 2231 expires on October 18, after which the Security Council will stop considering the Iran nuclear deal. –0–

Wuhan, September 27 (Xinhua) — China's Yangtze River Economic Belt continues to drive high-quality development, facilitating the transition to greener, more innovative, and more integrated growth, according to a think tank report published Friday.

The document, titled "A Mighty River Nurtures a Great Nation – Achievements, Inspirations and Global Significance of Yangtze River Governance in the New Era," was released by Xinhua Institute, a think tank affiliated with the Xinhua News Agency, at the 2025 Great Rivers Dialogue in Wuhan, central China's Hubei Province.

According to the document, the Yangtze River Economic Belt, which comprises 11 provincial-level administrative divisions along it and accounts for nearly half of China's population and GDP, is promoting modernization and high-quality growth, strengthening its position as the nation's engine of innovation-driven transformation.

Green and innovative development has provided significant impetus to the region's economic growth, with its total GRP and contribution to the country's overall economic growth steadily increasing.

In 2024, the Yangtze River Economic Belt's foreign trade volume reached a record 19.85 trillion yuan (about 2.79 trillion US dollars), including 5.61 trillion yuan in high-tech imports and exports, up 7 percent year-on-year, the report noted.

The document also notes the deep industrial integration and dynamic regional cooperation among the 11 provinces and cities located along the Yangtze River Economic Belt, which has contributed to the creation of new competitive advantages. -0-

UN, September 27 /Xinhua/ — Iran's cooperation agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will be invalidated if UN sanctions are reinstated, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced on Friday.

On the same day, the UN Security Council failed to pass a resolution that would have extended the 2015 nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), for six months to allow time for diplomacy and avoid automatic reinstatement of sanctions against Iran.

The United Kingdom, France, and Germany—the three European countries participating in the JCPOA—announced that they had triggered the sanctions snapback mechanism on August 28, notifying the Security Council of Tehran's "non-compliance." This mechanism is scheduled to enter into force on September 28 unless the Security Council takes other action.

"We have already stated that this move by the EU3 and the Security Council's decision will impact Iran's cooperation with the agency (IAEA – Xinhua)," A. Araghchi told reporters after the Security Council vote. "Unfortunately, if all of this is activated, then this agreement between Iran and the agency will also cease to be valid and will not be able to be implemented," the Foreign Minister emphasized.

Iran and the IAEA reached an agreement to resume cooperation in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, on September 9. At a Security Council meeting on Friday, A. Araghchi noted that IAEA inspectors are in Iran and doing their job.

Moscow, September 27 (Xinhua) — A gala reception to mark the 76th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Russia was held on Friday at the Chinese Embassy in Moscow. More than 1,500 guests were invited to the event, including politicians, entrepreneurs, public figures, cultural figures, and experts.

Addressing the audience, Chinese Ambassador to the Russian Federation Zhang Hanhui noted that, in historical terms, 76 years is a moment in time, but for the Chinese people, these have been years of monumental change that have radically transformed the country.

"Under the leadership of the Communist Party, China has made an astonishing leap from a backward state to one of the world's leading powers, achieving economic growth unprecedented in human history. Today, China is the world's second-largest economy, the largest manufacturer, a leading trading nation, and the second-largest consumer market on the planet. It remains a vital driver and stabilizing force for the global economy," the diplomat said.

Speaking about Chinese-Russian relations, the ambassador emphasized that they have stood the test of time and have acquired the "stability of a rock." "Under the strategic leadership of our heads of state, Chinese-Russian relations have maintained their rapid development momentum and are experiencing the best period in their history. Political trust and strategic interaction are deepening, cooperation in all areas is actively developing, and the social foundation of friendship, passed down from generation to generation, is strengthening," Zhang Hanhui stated, adding that on the international stage, China and Russia are setting an example of great power relations based on good-neighborliness, friendship, a comprehensive partnership, and mutual benefit.

In his speech, Ivan Melnikov, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma of the Russian Federation and Chairman of the Russian-Chinese Friendship Society (RCFS), praised China's achievements over the past decades: from industrial modernization to an economy based on new-generation productive forces, from large-scale infrastructure projects to leadership in high technology.

According to the Russian politician, the 76th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the establishment of diplomatic relations between Russia and China once again reminds us how, step by step, the countries built cooperation and how confidently they are today opening up new avenues of collaboration.

"For us, China has become not just a large neighbor, but a key partner and a true friend. This friendship is also bound by sacred dates. In both Russia and China, in the year of the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, the peoples remain true to historical memory and truth," he said, emphasizing that trust, practical projects, and respect for history make countries stronger.

A festive concert was held for guests of the Chinese Embassy. They were also able to view the photo exhibition "A New Chapter in the History of Beautiful Xizang," dedicated to the development achievements of the Xizang Autonomous Region of China over the 60 years since its founding. The exhibition was organized by the Xinhua Asia-European Bureau and China Image Group with the support of the Chinese Embassy in Russia.

Many delegates left the UN General Assembly hall in protest against B. Netanyahu's speech.

UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 26 (Xinhua) — Many delegates walked out of the United Nations General Assembly hall on Friday in protest during Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech.

In his speech at the general debate of the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, he criticized the countries that recently announced their recognition of the State of Palestine. "Do you know what signal the leaders sent to the Palestinians by recognizing the Palestinian state this week? It's a very clear signal. Killing Jews pays," the prime minister declared.

Dozens of delegates walked out of the General Assembly hall in protest when Benjamin Netanyahu took the podium. Some delegates booed him, but others applauded.

In his speech, the prime minister accused the Palestinians of not believing in the "two-state solution." "They never believed it. They don't want a state next to Israel. They want a Palestinian state instead of Israel," he said.

"The Palestinians' persistent rejection of a Jewish state, regardless of its borders, is what has driven this conflict for over a century," said Netanyahu. Rejection of a Palestinian state "is not simply my policy or the policy of my government. It is the policy of the state and the people of the State of Israel," he declared.

Addressing world leaders via video link on Thursday, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said the Palestinian Authority recognized Israel's "right to exist" back in 1988 and did so again in 1993.

"I address you today after nearly two years in which our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip have faced a genocidal war, destruction, famine, and displacement," he said. The politician condemned both the genocide being perpetrated by the "Israeli occupation forces" and the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.

M. Abbas expressed gratitude to the countries that recently recognized Palestinian statehood, as well as to individuals and organizations around the world who protested in support of the rights of the Palestinian people. "We oppose the conflation of solidarity with the Palestinian cause with the problem of anti-Semitism, which we reject," he emphasized.

Earlier in September, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution endorsing the New York Declaration on the Peaceful Settlement of the Palestinian Question and the Implementation of the "Two-State Solution for Two Peoples." The declaration, released in late July, outlines an action-based path to a peaceful resolution of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

In recent days, Western countries such as Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada, Portugal, and France have recognized the State of Palestine in support of the "two-state solution" of two peoples. To date, more than 150 UN member states have recognized Palestine.
