Tegucigalpa, Nov. 30 (Xinhua) — Voting in Honduras' national elections officially closed at 6 p.m. Sunday (00:00 GMT Monday). However, thousands of voters are still casting their ballots, as the country's electoral law stipulates that polling stations can only close after the last person standing in line at the official closing time has cast their ballot.

WASHINGTON, November 30 (Xinhua) — U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Special Presidential Envoy for the Middle East Steven Witkoff held talks with a Ukrainian delegation in Hallandale Beach, Florida, on Sunday, discussing Washington's updated peace plan to resolve the Ukrainian crisis.

“The ultimate goal is clearly not just to end the war,” M. Rubio said in a brief speech before the meeting, “but to ensure an end to the war that leaves Ukraine sovereign and independent and gives it the opportunity for genuine prosperity.”

The head of the Ukrainian delegation, Rustem Umerov, reported that the parties are discussing “the future of Ukraine, Ukraine’s security, preventing a repeat of aggression against Ukraine, Ukraine’s prosperity, and how to restore Ukraine.”

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wrote on the social media site X on Saturday that the Ukrainian delegation intends to "quickly and thoroughly work out the steps necessary to end the war."

"In the coming days, it is entirely possible to finalize steps to determine how to end the fighting with dignity," Zelensky noted.

US President Donald Trump said he would meet with his Russian and Ukrainian counterparts only when a peace agreement is "final or in its final stages." –0–

Minsk, November 30 (Xinhua) — Belarus is ready for dialogue with North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) member states to ensure security in Eastern Europe. Valery Revenko, Head of the Department of International Military Cooperation and Assistant to the Minister of Defense of Belarus on International Military Cooperation, stated this on Sunday on the Belarusian television channel VoenTV.

According to him, Belarus's relations with Western countries and NATO member countries are developing in a very problematic manner.

"Nevertheless, we continue contacts with Western countries. We have accredited a number of NATO member states in Belarus—ten of them. We are ready to provide them with Belarus's position. We are ready to listen to their position and reach some kind of consensus. Again, this is to ensure security in our region," V. Revenko emphasized.

Relations between Belarus and NATO member countries remain difficult. In 2021, a migration crisis erupted on the Belarusian-Polish border. As a result, a multi-kilometer wall was erected between the countries.

Incidents involving drones have also occurred in Belarus and NATO countries. In September 2025, Belarus notified Poland and Lithuania of drones approaching their territory. Poland also informed Belarusian combat units about unidentified aerial vehicles approaching the Belarusian border from Ukrainian territory.

In October and November 2025, Lithuania repeatedly completely closed traffic across the border with Belarus. –0–

Jerusalem, November 30 (Xinhua) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday sent a formal request for clemency to President Isaac Herzog, according to a statement from the Presidential Office.

In a letter sent to Netanyahu and his lawyers, a copy of which was seen by Xinhua, the Israeli prime minister said he filed the motion "out of a sense of public responsibility," adding that ending the trial "will help ease the heat of the related debate about power."

“Given the security challenges and political opportunities facing the State of Israel, I am prepared to do everything in my power to heal divisions, achieve national unity, and restore trust in state institutions,” the head of the Israeli government emphasized.

Herzog's office reported that the request was submitted to the office's legal department by Netanyahu's lawyers. The Israeli president promised to consider this rare request "in accordance with general principles and procedures."

“The President’s Office recognizes that this is an extraordinary request with significant implications,” the statement said.

"After receiving all the necessary conclusions, the president will responsibly and fairly consider this petition," the presidential office added.

The Israeli prime minister is accused of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust. According to the indictment, filed nearly six years ago, Netanyahu promoted regulations favoring a telecommunications magnate in exchange for positive media portrayals of him and his family. The Israeli prime minister is also accused of accepting lavish gifts, including cigars and champagne worth tens of thousands of dollars, from a billionaire Hollywood producer in exchange for assistance with his personal affairs.

B. Netanyahu denies the accusations, calling them a "witch hunt." –0–

Moscow, November 30 (Xinhua) — The Russian Foreign Ministry strongly condemns Ukrainian attacks on tankers in the Black Sea and the infrastructure of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium. This was stated by Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova on Sunday. The ministry released the statement.

On November 28, off the coast of Turkey in the southern Black Sea, unmanned naval craft attacked and damaged the tankers Kairos and Virat, which were en route to the port of Novorossiysk under the Gambian flag. The following morning, the Virat was attacked again.

Early in the morning of November 29, in the seaport of Novorossiysk, as a result of an attack using unmanned boats of the same type, the VPU-2 single-point mooring unit, belonging to the international Caspian Pipeline Consortium, which unites fuel and energy companies from Russia, Kazakhstan, the United States, and several Western European countries, was disabled.

"Kyiv's security services effectively claimed their involvement in these attacks by publishing video evidence of the terrorist attacks in Ukrainian media. We strongly condemn these terrorist attacks and the actions of all parties involved in their planning and implementation," stated M. Zakharova.

She stressed that the civilian energy infrastructure that was attacked plays an important role in ensuring global energy security and has never been subject to international restrictions. –0–

Moscow, November 30 /Xinhua/ — Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is clearly seeking to escalate relations with China. Her statements about the alleged impossibility of determining Taiwan's legal status and a general course toward remilitarization, along with her stated readiness to deploy medium-range missiles near Taiwan, are seriously exacerbating Japanese-Chinese tensions. The consequences of this for Japan's relations with China will be long-term and severe. Vasily Kashin, Director of the Center for Comprehensive European and International Studies at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (CCEIS HSE), stated this in a recent interview with Xinhua.

"This is yet another step by Japan aimed at escalating tensions with China, specifically in the context of Taiwan… It's clear that Sanae Takaichi is escalating tensions, hoping for some domestic political gains. But the consequences for relations with China will be long-term and severe," Kashin emphasized.

According to the Russian expert, "There are several reasons why Japan is taking these steps. Some are related to the relatively low popularity of the current Japanese cabinet and attempts to somehow bolster it. There's also the problem of Japan trying to emphasize and strengthen its alliance with the United States. There's also the problem of Sanae Takaichi's insufficient diplomatic experience, who may be doing certain things because she perhaps doesn't fully understand the unprecedented nature of what she's doing. After all, she hasn't worked in foreign policy in the past. Taken together, this is creating today's very serious cycle of escalating Japanese-Chinese tensions," the director of the HSE Center for Contemporary Economics and International Relations (CCIEIS) noted.

V. Kashin also believes that Japanese government statements about plans to revise the National Security Strategy and other doctrinal documents on Japan's defense, as well as unprecedented statements about Taiwan's status and the possibility of deploying American-made medium-range missiles near the island, represent a radicalization of existing trends. In Japan, there had been some statements on this topic before, by Sanae Takaichi's predecessors. "This was discussed. Now Sanae Takaichi has elevated the level of this discussion. It is now being discussed directly, openly, and at a higher level," the expert noted.

He recalled that Russia fully supports China on the Taiwan issue. There are a number of international legal acts and other decisions that clearly state that Taiwan is part of China. "Russia will interact with China as a partner; we have mutual obligations in this area," Kashin emphasized.
