UN, November 4 /Xinhua/ — At least 30 people have died in Haiti and more than 1.5 million have been affected in Jamaica as a result of Hurricane Melissa, Deputy Spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General Farhan Haq announced at a daily briefing on Tuesday.

According to his statement, Jamaica suffered significant infrastructure damage. More than 130 roads were blocked, and power and communications networks were disrupted.

Health services are under severe strain as several hospitals and clinics have been damaged or destroyed, prompting the Pan American Health Organization to dispatch an ambulance team to the scene, a UN official said.

The World Food Programme (WFP) estimates that up to 360,000 people in Jamaica may need food assistance, F. Hack emphasized.

He said the UN Disaster Assessment and Coordination Team is coordinating the work of aid teams and incoming assistance to support the Jamaican government.

In Haiti, according to F. Hack, the UN and its partners continue to assess the damage from Hurricane Melissa and are intensifying efforts to provide assistance to those in need.

The UN's Food and Agriculture Organization reported losses in bean, maize and fruit crops, as well as damage to fishing infrastructure, which Haque said would worsen hunger in a country where half the population is already food insecure.

Speaking to reporters via video link, WFP Representative in Cuba Etienne Laband said the hurricane had caused widespread flooding, power outages and severe damage, leaving crops destroyed and many buildings partially or completely destroyed in eastern Cuba.

As part of its response to the hurricane, Cuba adopted a system of preemptive actions, coupled with pre-approved allocation of UN funds, which allowed UN agencies to pre-position essential supplies in vulnerable areas before the hurricane arrived, said E. Laband. –0–

Almaty/Shanghai, November 5 (Xinhua) — The China International Import Expo (CIIE) is a strategic platform that offers Kazakh manufacturers the opportunity to enter the world's largest market. This was stated by Kazybek Shaikh, Chairman of the National Association of Cooperatives and Other Economic Community Forms of the Republic of Kazakhstan, in an interview with Xinhua ahead of the 8th CIIE, which is taking place from November 5 to 10 in Shanghai, China.

"This year, more than 100 Kazakhstani companies will participate in the exhibition, making our delegation the largest in the history of Kazakhstan's participation in the CIIE," said K. Shaikh, noting that the placement of Kazakhstani products on this platform creates a stable foundation for promoting domestic brands and their integration into the Chinese market.

According to him, participants include representatives of the agro-industrial complex, agricultural processors, food and light industry enterprises, IT companies, and innovative startups.

According to K. Shaikh, a business-matching event will be held at the exhibition, during which Kazakh and Chinese companies will negotiate and sign specific contractual agreements. "We expect these meetings to lay the foundation for long-term partnerships, new export routes, and joint investment projects," he said.

K. Shaikh believes that the CIIE is not just an exhibition, but also a tool for integration and practical cooperation within the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative, which creates new opportunities for growth, infrastructure development, and deepening international cooperation.

The company's export manager, Emil Huseynov, stated this in an exclusive interview with Xinhua.

"Our goal is to expand our range of exported products. In addition to natural pomegranate wines, we produce non-alcoholic beverages and want to introduce Chinese consumers to our products," he noted.

The eighth China International Import Expo will be held in Shanghai from November 5 to 10. The arrival of exhibits from various countries is currently at a peak. On October 21, the ship "COSCO Felixstowe," which delivered exhibits for the CIIE by sea, safely arrived at Waigaoqiao Port after a month-long voyage. The cargo included such distinctive exhibits as dairy products, coconut oil, handicrafts, and others.

To date, more than 3,200 companies from over 110 countries and regions have confirmed their participation in the exhibition. The reserved exhibition space exceeds 360,000 square meters.

These included optimizing and improving entry and exit services, streamlining traffic management, improving ease of movement within the National Exhibition and Convention Center, streamlining registration and pass management, and other aspects.

Specifically, in the area of registration and pass management, in addition to expanding the reusability of passes, the registration deadline for the exhibition has been extended until October 31, and a "green corridor" for temporary registration has been opened.

To improve convenience, the number of electronic security checkpoints has been increased within the National Exhibition and Convention Center, reducing waiting times at the entrance. Additionally, the number of parking spaces has been increased by 5%, and arrangements have been made with nearby shopping centers to reserve parking spaces for exhibition participants.

For the first time, an electronic visa on arrival will be introduced for foreign participants at the exhibition. Companies and organizations will be able to apply for an electronic visa for invited foreign specialists.

The 8th China International Import Expo (CIIE) will be held from November 5 to 10 in Shanghai. From innovations in cosmetics technology to breakthroughs in home appliances, from promoting healthy lifestyles to embracing the concept of inclusiveness and common good, the expo continues to provide significant opportunities for global companies to showcase their innovative achievements and explore the Chinese market. It is also becoming an important window into emerging trends in China's consumer market.

At this year's CIIE, "premiere" will once again be the buzzword. Major companies will present innovative products debuting on the global or Chinese market, showcasing the latest technological advances in various industries.

L'Oréal, participating in the exhibition for the eighth consecutive year, is presenting its largest lineup of debut new products to date. It will include three new brands debuting in Asia, four beauty technology solutions debuting in the global and Chinese markets, and 19 new products.

"There's no other event in the world that L'Oréal enjoys such deep engagement and dedication," said Fabrice Megarbane, President of L'Oréal North Asia and CEO of L'Oréal China. "CIIE consistently focuses on the world's most cutting-edge trends, brings together talented innovators, inspires innovative ideas, and builds bridges for cross-industry collaboration."

Panasonic Corporation, a regular participant in CIIE for all eight years, will not only present a number of products this year—global innovations and new products being showcased in China for the first time—but will also announce the launch of its AI strategy for China for the first time at the exhibition. Tetsuro Homma, Global Vice President of Panasonic Holdings Co., Ltd., noted that China is not only a major manufacturing and consumer powerhouse, but also a great nation of innovation and engineers. "Many innovative products we developed in China are already being delivered to the global market, and I am confident this process will only accelerate. The scope of research and development in China across the Panasonic Group will continue to expand."

Every year, the "innovation concentration" at CIIE premieres remains exceptionally high. This energy is driven by the powerful gravitational pull of the Chinese market, reflecting rapidly changing consumer trends in China.

The 8th CIIE will place special emphasis on new themes, formats, and consumer trends. Specifically, the medical exhibition area will shift focus to the so-called "silver economy," featuring rehabilitation aids, products for the elderly, and sleep-improving technologies. The consumer goods exhibition area will feature a first-ever pet-themed demonstration area, showcasing high-quality global products in the "pet economy" using real-life scenes.

"In China, people are increasingly seeking to participate in fitness programs, sports, and social activities that help balance their bodies and minds and boost their energy," noted Calvin McDonald, CEO of active lifestyle brand Lululemon, speaking about the growing potential of sports consumption in the Chinese market. "We have always been confident in the long-term potential of the Chinese market and are committed to growing alongside it, helping create a healthier China and a happier future."

The importance of the CIIE as a global public good accessible to all is becoming increasingly clear. Wu Zhengping, Deputy Director of the CIIE Bureau, announced that, in addition to the existing support of free exhibition space, the current exhibition has established for the first time a special zone for products from least developed countries. This will help companies and products from these countries, which have established diplomatic relations with China, as well as from 53 African partner countries, fully leverage the benefits of the zero-tariff regime and share in the development opportunities offered by the vast Chinese market.

As the 8th China International Import Expo approaches, the world's attention is once again focused on Shanghai. On this platform, founded on openness and collaboration, companies from around the world will showcase their latest achievements, share development opportunities, and look forward to unlocking the vast potential and boundless possibilities of the Chinese market.

Yerevan, November 4 (Xinhua) — The conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan can be considered politically resolved, but its consequences continue to be felt at the socio-psychological level. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated this on Tuesday, speaking at the Orbeli 2025 international forum in Yerevan.

"Politically, the conflict has been exhausted and resolved, but the socio-psychological aspect is not something that can be stopped by simply slamming on the brakes. We must find the right formulas to overcome these phenomena," the Prime Minister noted. He added that the transition to peaceful coexistence between Armenia and Azerbaijan requires the will of political leadership.

N. Pashinyan emphasized that practical results have been achieved in recent years in the process of normalizing relations between the two countries. He mentioned the border delimitation, which began in 2024, and the signing of the regulation on the joint activities of delimitation commissions, which became the first international document between Armenia and Azerbaijan. According to him, the principle of delimitation was the 1991 Alma-Ata Declaration, which enshrines the mutual recognition of territorial integrity.

The Prime Minister also recalled the "peace summit" held in Washington on August 8, 2025, which resulted in the initialing of an agreement on the establishment of peace and interstate relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan. "Thus, peace has been established between the Republic of Armenia and Azerbaijan," Pashinyan stated.

The international forum "Orbeli 2025: Building Peace and Multilateral Cooperation" opened in Yerevan on November 4. Organized by the Armenian think tank Orbeli, the event brought together politicians, diplomats, and experts from more than 10 countries. The forum focused on peace and security in the South Caucasus, regional connectivity, and prospects for cooperation in transport and trade.
