Cotonou, December 7 (Xinhua) — Benin's armed forces have thwarted an attempted coup aimed at destabilizing the state and its institutions, Interior and Public Security Minister Alassane Seydou announced on Sunday.

A. Seydou made the statement after a group of military officers announced on state television channel Benin TV earlier in the day that the country's President Patrice Talon had been "suspended from office."

According to the minister, the armed forces and their command, "true to their oath," responded in a republican spirit and were able to keep the situation under control, preventing an attempt to seize power. The government called on the population to continue living and working as usual.

In an interview with the French-language weekly Jeune Afrique on Sunday morning, Benin's Minister of State for Economy and Finance, Romuald Wadagny, said the situation was "under control."

"The rebels are trapped. We're clearing the area, but it's not over yet. We're safe," said R. Wadagny, adding that helicopters are patrolling Cotonou and the central part of the city is under heavy army security.

In a telephone conversation with Xinhua, local residents said armed troops are stationed primarily at key intersections in and around Cotonou, the country's economic capital and largest city, while civilians continue to go about their daily business and large markets remain open.

GUIYANG, Dec. 7 (Xinhua) — Colorful Guizhou Airlines has launched a direct flight linking Guiyang, capital of southwest China's Guizhou Province, with Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam as part of China's expansion of air connectivity with ASEAN countries.

The direct Guiyang-Ho Chi Minh City flight began operating on December 6, according to the Guizhou Civil Aviation Corporation. Flight GY703 departed Guiyang at 10:50 PM Beijing time and arrived in Ho Chi Minh City at 1:30 AM local time. The return flight, GY704, departed at 2:30 AM local time and arrived in Guiyang at 7:10 AM Beijing time.

The new route will operate in parallel with the same carrier's Guiyang-Hanoi route, providing direct air service between the mountainous province of Guizhou and Vietnam's two largest cities.

Expanding air traffic will benefit trade, tourism and business ties between southwest China and ASEAN, officials believe.

In recent months, air traffic between China and ASEAN has expanded. In November, a passenger route connecting Haikou in southern China with Nha Trang in Vietnam was launched, and an all-cargo route connecting Nanjing in eastern China with Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia was also launched.

Trade and economic relations between China and ASEAN countries are demonstrating resilience. Since 2022, annual merchandise trade has remained above USD 900 billion, reaching a record USD 982.1 billion in 2024.

This growth trend continued in 2025: in the first 10 months of the year, trade turnover increased by 8.2 percent year-on-year. -0-

BEIJING, Dec. 7 (Xinhua) — China's Ministry of Emergency Management said Sunday it has sent a task force to northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region to assist rescue efforts after traffic accidents killed nine people and injured seven others.

The accidents occurred on Saturday around 10:00 PM on different sections of the expressway, 70 km from the city limits of Wusu in Tacheng County. Five large vehicles and seven smaller cars were involved in the accidents.

Local authorities said the accidents occurred amid sudden heavy fog and sub-zero overnight temperatures, which caused the road surface to become wet and slippery due to icing over a short period of time.

The Ministry of Emergency Management of the People's Republic of China called for a scientific approach to organizing rescue operations to prevent recurrence of accidents, make every effort to provide assistance to victims, minimize losses, and determine the causes of the incident as soon as possible and draw appropriate conclusions. -0-

Beijing, December 7 (Xinhua) — China demands that Japan immediately cease slanderous remarks and discreditable actions and strictly enforce discipline during frontline operations. This was stated on Sunday by People's Liberation Army Navy (PLA) spokesman Wang Xuemeng, commenting on the recent approaches of Japan Air Self-Defense Force aircraft to the waters and airspace east of the Miyako Strait, where carrier-based fighters from the Chinese carrier battle group led by the aircraft carrier Liaoning were conducting routine training flights.

Wang Xuemeng emphasized that the hype raised by the Japanese side is completely at odds with the facts, since the sea area and airspace for conducting training flights were announced by China in advance.

Japan Air Self-Defense Force aircraft have repeatedly approached Chinese naval training areas in an attempt to interfere, which has had a significant negative impact on China's normal training activities and created a serious threat to flight safety, Wang Xuemeng said.

The Chinese Navy will take all necessary measures to protect its security and legitimate rights and interests in accordance with the law, he added. -0-
