WUHAN, Aug. 6 (Xinhua) — Freight train No. 75192 departed from Xianglushan Station in Wuhan City, central China's Hubei Province, bound for Kazakhstan on Wednesday, marking the opening of a second departure station in Hubei Province for trains running on the China-Europe/China-Central Asia international freight rail routes.

According to Zhang Peng, general manager of a local logistics company, in the past, all goods destined for export to Central Asia and Europe and transported to Wuhan via the Yangtze River could only be delivered through Wujiashan Station, the only departure station for China-Europe/China-Central Asia trains in Hubei Province.

He noted that the launch of a new similar station will reduce transportation time by approximately 2 days than before, and reduce overall costs by approximately 15 percent.

On July 16 this year, the first train in this province departed from Wujiashan Station, running along the multimodal international freight transportation route “China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan” in the format of mixed freight transportation by rail and highway.

In recent years, trade between Hubei Province and Central Asian countries has been growing. In 2021, China Railways Wuhan launched the first freight train service from Wuhan to Almaty. In April this year, freight trains from Wuhan to Central Asia were included in regular routes, achieving a monthly throughput of up to 440 standard containers (TEU, twenty-foot equivalent unit) and more than 7,500 tons of cargo.

In the first half of this year, Hubei Province's total foreign trade reached 402.31 billion yuan (about 55.97 US dollars), up 28.4 percent year on year. -0-

BEIJING, Aug. 6 (Xinhua) — China is willing to work with Brazil to deepen bilateral cooperation and effectively address external uncertainties through stable and complementary state-to-state cooperation, Wang Yi, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and director of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the CPC Central Committee, said in a telephone conversation with Celso Amorim, special adviser to the Brazilian president on international affairs, on Wednesday.

Under the strategic leadership of Chinese President Xi Jinping and Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, China and Brazil are working together to build a community with a shared future for a fairer world and a more sustainable planet, he said. This reflects the shared vision and sense of responsibility of the two major developing countries in promoting a multipolar world, upholding international rules and order, and safeguarding global justice, Wang added.

He stressed that China firmly supports Brazil in safeguarding the right to development and opposing the bullying practice of arbitrary tariffs. As the largest developing countries in the Eastern and Western hemispheres respectively, China and Brazil always support each other, maintain close coordination, and firmly safeguard both their legitimate interests and the common interests of countries in the Global South, Wang said.

According to S. Amorim, Brazil intends to deepen cooperation with China in trade, finance and other areas and is ready to work together to improve and promote the BRICS mechanism, strengthen the solidarity and independence of the countries of the Global South, and protect international justice.

PHNOM PENH, Aug. 6 (Xinhua) — Thailand's legal action against Cambodia on the issue of violating sovereignty by using military force is groundless, politically motivated and without foundation, Cham Soonri, State Secretary and spokesman for the Cambodian Foreign Ministry, said at a press conference on Wednesday.

According to him, such legal measures are completely baseless and represent a deliberate attempt to divert the attention of both domestic and international public opinion from Thailand's hostile policy towards Cambodia. "The accusations underlying the legal actions are baseless, politically motivated and have no credible basis," the diplomat said.

Cham Soonri noted that Cambodia firmly rejects the Thai claims and reiterates that it did not initiate hostile actions. Cambodia remains committed to peace, he said, adding that despite ongoing provocations, the country continues to abide by the ceasefire agreement.

“Cambodia urges Thailand to stop its disinformation campaign and/or hostile actions and return to constructive dialogue in the spirit of peaceful coexistence and ASEAN solidarity,” Cham Soonri stressed.

On Tuesday, Acting Prime Minister Phumtham Vechayachai instructed relevant agencies to prepare legal documents to file criminal and civil lawsuits against Cambodia at the national and international levels. He accused the neighboring country of using military force to violate Thailand's sovereignty, which resulted in significant loss of life and property among Thai civilians and military personnel.

On July 24, armed clashes broke out on a disputed section of the border between Cambodia and Thailand. The two ASEAN member states agreed to a ceasefire on July 28, which went into effect at midnight that same day. –0–
