UN, November 19 /Xinhua/ — Japan "completely fails to meet the requirements" for permanent membership in the UN Security Council, China's Permanent Representative to the UN, Fu Cong, said Tuesday at a plenary session of the UN General Assembly devoted to Security Council reform.

According to him, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi recently made a "brazen and provocative" statement regarding Taiwan in the Japanese Diet. She said that an emergency situation in Taiwan could constitute a "survival-threatening situation" for Japan, allowing the country to invoke its right to collective self-defense to intervene militarily in the Taiwan Strait.

Fu Cong said Sanae Takaichi's remarks were "extremely wrong and dangerous" and constituted gross interference in China's internal affairs and a serious violation of the one-China principle and the spirit of the Four Political Documents signed between China and Japan.

“Such statements challenge international justice, undermine the post-war world order, and trample on the fundamental principles of international relations, and are a clear retreat from Japan’s commitment to peaceful development,” the diplomat noted.

“Such a country does not at all meet the requirements for those who want to become a permanent member of the Security Council,” he added.

Fu Cong emphasized that throughout history, Japanese militarists have repeatedly used so-called "survival-threatening situations" as a pretext for aggression abroad. In particular, the September 18, 1931, incident, committed under the pretext of self-defense, provoked a war of aggression against China and brought profound suffering to the Chinese people and peoples around the world.

"Now Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has once again raised the issue of a 'survival-threatening situation.' What is her true intention? Is Japan planning to repeat its past mistakes of militarism?" Fu Tsung asked.

The Permanent Representative said that Takaichi has also consistently advocated for the repeal of the "renunciation of war" clause in Japan's peace constitution. "Given Takaichi's egregious behavior, how can we trust Japan's stated commitment to peaceful development? How can the international community trust Japan to uphold justice? How can we trust Japan to shoulder its responsibility for ensuring international peace and security?" he asked.

Fu Cong emphasized that Japan must immediately cease interfering in China's internal affairs, renounce its misguided and provocative statements and actions, and refrain from "playing with fire" on the Taiwan issue. "Otherwise, Japan must be prepared to bear all the consequences," he added.

"If Japan dares to attempt armed intervention in the Taiwan Strait, it will constitute an act of aggression and will certainly receive a decisive response from China. We will exercise our right to self-defense in accordance with the UN Charter and international law and resolutely defend China's sovereignty and territorial integrity," Fu Tsung stated.

BEIJING, November 19 (Xinhua) — If Japan refuses to retract its erroneous remarks regarding Taiwan or continues to make mistake after mistake, China will be forced to take strict and decisive countermeasures, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said on Wednesday, noting that Japan will bear all the consequences.

Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's erroneous statements have fundamentally damaged the political foundation of China-Japan relations and provoked public outrage and condemnation from the Chinese people, the diplomat said at a regular press conference in response to a question on the matter.

China strongly demands that Japan retract its erroneous remarks, stop provoking incidents on China-related issues, take concrete actions to acknowledge its mistakes and correct shortcomings, and maintain the political foundation of China-Japan relations, she concluded. -0-

Beijing, November 19 (Xinhua) — At the beginning of winter, Russian artist Marina Shegolkova, admiring the first winter landscapes outside her window, is painting an oil painting. This is her seventh day in China.

According to the news website chinanews.com, the Harbin Fengyue Russian Oil Painting Art Gallery recently invited a group of Russian artists to perform in Harbin, the capital of Heilongjiang Province, Northeast China.

M. Shegolkova said Heilongjiang is a wonderful place. The opportunity to passionately paint every day is a great joy for her.

The walls of the adjacent exhibition hall are filled with paintings distinguished by their mature technique and dynamism, imbued with a vibrant Russian flavor.

Beginning in 1896, a large number of Russian émigrés arrived in Harbin, making the city an important transit point for the introduction of Western culture and art to the East. Boasting a rich historical and cultural heritage and a harmonious blend of Chinese and Western traditions, the city gradually became a platform for cultural exchange between China and Russia, and even between the countries of Northeast Asia, as well as a hub for the distribution of works of art. Oil painting, an important artistic form of Russian culture, became a significant vehicle for cultural dialogue between the two countries.

"My original goal in creating the gallery was to allow Chinese people to enjoy outstanding works of Russian art without having to travel abroad," shared gallery director Chen Fengyue. Over the course of more than ten years, the gallery's collection has grown to include more than 5,000 works by Russian artists, including oil paintings, prints, and watercolors.

In recent years, more than 20 Russian artists have visited China at the invitation of the gallery to perform creative work.

Russian artist Evgeny Larionov said this type of invitation was very effective: not only did it allow him to fully focus on his creative work, but it also provided an excellent opportunity for professional exchange with his Chinese colleagues. Personally experiencing the oriental charm and friendliness of the locals was a particularly valuable experience. During the trip, he made over ten Chinese friends.

With the introduction of a visa-free regime for Russians in China, interactions between the business communities and tourists of the two countries have become even more active. The flow of Russian tourists with regular passports has increased, directly boosting cultural exchange between China and Russia.

It is worth noting that China has introduced a trial visa-free regime for Russian citizens holding regular foreign passports from September 15, 2025 to September 14, 2026.

Russian citizens holding valid ordinary passports may visit China visa-free for business, tourism, visiting relatives and friends, exchanging visits, and transit purposes. Their stay in China should not exceed 30 days.

“It has now become much more convenient for Russian artists to come to China to create,” said Chen Fengyue. -0-

BELEM, Brazil, November 19 (Xinhua) — Bruna Cerqueira, Director of the Action Programme at the 30th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP30), said on Tuesday that Brazil's presidency is focused on translating political commitments into real climate solutions.

Speaking at a briefing on the ninth day of COP30, which continues until November 21 in the Amazonian city of Belém, B. Cerqueira assessed the progress of the negotiations and outlined the main strategy underlying this year's conference.

“We are working across all areas of the Programme of Action to advance plans that accelerate the search for solutions and move from commitments to results,” she said, emphasizing the continuity with the work of previous COP presidencies.

B. Cerqueira described in detail the political framework supporting COP30, designed to integrate action at multiple levels. "From the outset, we understood that the COP should be based on four pillars: the leaders' summit, which opens the process; negotiations; an Action Plan; and mobilization to achieve the three goals we set," said the Director of the Action Plan.

She added that the goals are to protect multilateralism, accelerate implementation and link climate action with people's daily lives.

B. Cerqueira also noted significant progress in funding for indigenous peoples and local communities. The $1.2 billion pledged at COP26 was delivered a year ahead of schedule and has now been nearly doubled. "At this conference, we are reaffirming that commitment, increasing it to $2 billion. Thirty donors have already supported this proposal," she said, noting that Brazil's announcement of new boundaries for indigenous lands is part of a broader legal and administrative effort.
