Beijing, September 17 (Xinhua) — The United States' unilateral distortion of facts and misinterpretation of World War II documents cannot shake the international community's unwavering commitment to the one-China principle, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said on Wednesday.

Lin Chien made the statement at a regular press conference in response to a question from reporters about a statement by a US State Department spokesman that none of these documents, including the Cairo Declaration and the Potsdam Declaration, determine the final political status of Taiwan.

Noting that the one-China principle is the universal consensus of the international community, Lin Jian called on the US side to fully abide by this principle and the provisions of the three Sino-US joint communiqués, stop manipulating the Taiwan issue, condoning or supporting separatist forces seeking "Taiwan independence" in any form, and refrain from interfering in China's internal affairs. -0-

LONDON, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump arrived in London on Tuesday for his second state visit as president, aiming to seal new trade and security deals despite ongoing protests.

According to Buckingham Palace, King Charles III, Queen Camilla, and Prime Minister Keir Starmer will meet Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump at Windsor Castle on Wednesday. On Thursday, Trump and Starmer plan to hold a bilateral meeting at Chequers, the prime minister's country residence.

Around 100 residents of Windsor and other parts of the UK, organized by the Stop Trump coalition, gathered in the streets outside Windsor Castle on Tuesday evening, chanting slogans against the visit and waving signs reading "Stop Hate. Stop Trump" and "Hate Has Never Made a Nation Great." Organizers said they plan to hold a larger demonstration in central London on Wednesday.

Ahead of the visit, the British government announced more than £1.25 billion (US$1.7 billion) in US private investment in financial services and unveiled plans to sign a new nuclear energy deal during Trump's stay.

Talks between the two sides are expected to cover artificial intelligence, semiconductors, telecommunications and quantum computing, local media reported.

The visit came two months after Trump's private trip to Scotland, during which he met with K. Starmer and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, a trip that also sparked mass demonstrations.

HONG KONG, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) — Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) Chief Executive Li Jiachao said Wednesday that Hong Kong will use a special channel targeting technology enterprises to help sci-tech enterprises in the Chinese mainland attract funding in Hong Kong, thus increasing financial support for building China into a sci-tech powerhouse.

Delivering his fourth policy implementation report, Li Jiachao emphasized the Hong Kong administration's commitment to encouraging more overseas enterprises to pursue secondary listings in Hong Kong, facilitating Chinese companies' return from overseas stock markets, and making Hong Kong their preferred choice upon return.

The Hong Kong stock market maintains strong momentum, said Li Jiachao. According to him, by the end of August this year, the total amount of funds raised through IPOs (initial public offerings) exceeded 130 billion Hong Kong dollars (approximately 16.71 billion US dollars), which is almost six times more than the same period last year, making Hong Kong the world's largest fundraiser through IPOs. -0-

HONG KONG, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) — Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) Chief Executive Lee Jiachao announced plans to accelerate the development of new growth areas to strengthen Hong Kong's status as an international financial hub, including the establishment of an international gold trading market.

Delivering his fourth policy speech on Wednesday, Li Jiachao said the HKSAR will support the Hong Kong Airport Authority and financial institutions in expanding gold storage capacity in the HKSAR, with a planned gold storage capacity of over 2,000 tonnes within three years, turning Hong Kong into a regional gold reserve hub.

Li Jiachao stressed the need to encourage gold traders to establish or expand refineries in Hong Kong, and to explore, together with the Chinese mainland, the possibility of processing supplied raw materials on the Chinese mainland, refining the gold, and then exporting it to Hong Kong for trade and shipping purposes.

He also announced plans to establish a central clearing system for gold in Hong Kong to provide efficient and reliable clearing services for gold transactions in line with international standards, and to invite the Shanghai Gold Exchange to participate in preparation for mutual market access with the Chinese mainland in the future.

The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Chief Executive also outlined plans to offer a wider range of gold investment instruments, assisting issuers in issuing gold funds, and supporting the development of new investment products, such as tokenized gold. He also pledged to support the establishment of a gold industry association to establish an exchange platform with the HKSAR government and regulatory authorities, strengthen promotion and attract clients from countries and regions participating in the Belt and Road Initiative, and enhance personnel training.

Li Jiachao noted that the Shanghai Gold Exchange's international gold investor platform opened its first offshore warehouse in Hong Kong and launched new supply contracts to the SAR, adding that the SAR will continue to promote cooperation between the gold markets of Hong Kong and Shanghai. -0-

BEIJING, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) — China Southern Airlines announced it will resume passenger flights on the route between Urumqi in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Osh in Kyrgyzstan from October 9, the Xinjiang Daily newspaper reported.

Flights on the Urumqi-Osh-Urumqi route will operate three times a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. A one-way flight takes approximately two and a half hours.

Once these passenger flights resume, this route will become the only direct air route from Osh to China. This will increase the number of Kyrgyz cities with direct air links to China to two – Bishkek and Osh – further enhancing the convenience of trade, economic activity, and people-to-people exchanges between the two countries.

China Southern Airlines reported that in recent years, it has made active efforts to ensure uninterrupted air service between China and Kyrgyzstan. Since October of last year, Urumqi-Bishkek-Urumqi flights have served 49,000 passengers. The resumption of Urumqi-Osh-Urumqi flights is expected to further boost demand for cross-border travel between China and Kyrgyzstan.

Harbin, September 17 (Xinhua) — The world premiere of the film "731" (Evil Unbound) about Unit 731 took place on Wednesday in Harbin, northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, where a Japanese army unit was based for committing grave atrocities against humanity. The film depicts the crimes committed by the Japanese invaders in China.

The film "731" tells the story of Wang Yongzhang, a local merchant, and others forcibly imprisoned in the "special prison" of Unit 731, where they were lured with false promises of freedom in exchange for cooperation in supposed medical examinations and disease prevention research, but became victims of horrific medical experiments, including frostbite tests, gas exposure, and vivisection.

The base of Unit 731, a secret Japanese army unit engaged in the research and development of biological and chemical weapons, was established in the Pingfang area of Harbin and served as the main center of Japanese germ warfare in China and Southeast Asia during World War II. -0-

KABUL, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) — At least three people were killed and two others injured when their car skidded off the road and fell into a deep ravine in Afghanistan's northern Badakhshan province, provincial police spokesman Ehsanullah Kamgar said on Wednesday.

The crash occurred in Argo County after a car lost control on a steep hill, killing three passengers, including the driver, and injuring two children, he said.

This is the third such incident in the northern provinces in the past three days. On Monday, a collision between two motorcycles in Badakhshan left one person dead and three others injured.

Earlier on Sunday, six passengers were killed and four others injured in a head-on collision between a car and a truck in the northern province of Faryab.

Road traffic fatalities remain a persistent problem in Afghanistan, often attributed to deteriorating road conditions, reckless driving, and inadequate safety measures in challenging terrain and limited infrastructure. –0–
