Minsk, October 29 (Xinhua) — Establishing Taiwan Liberation Memorial Day will further promote the preservation of the results of the victory in the World Anti-Fascist War and the post-war world order. This was stated by China's Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Belarus Zhang Wenchuan in an interview with Belta on Tuesday during the third Minsk International Conference on Eurasian Security.

Zhang Wenchuan noted that hosting an international forum in Belarus to discuss peace and security is a significant event. He emphasized that the topic of national unity and non-interference in the internal affairs of the state is also important for China.

The ambassador recalled that recently, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of China, in accordance with the Constitution, decided to legally enshrine October 25 as Taiwan Liberation Memorial Day and stipulate that the state will hold various commemorative events on this day.

Zhang Wenchuan emphasized that establishing Taiwan Liberation Memorial Day will further promote the achievements of the World Anti-Fascist War and the post-war world order. It will also further demonstrate the firm resolve of the Communist Party of China and the Chinese people to uphold the one-China principle and defend national sovereignty, unity, and territorial integrity.

"China's sovereignty and territory have never been divided and never will be divided; Taiwan's status as part of China has never changed and never will. No matter what changes occur within Taiwan, no matter how much external forces try to stir up unrest, the historical trend toward the final and inevitable reunification of China is irreversible," Zhang Wenchuan stated.

The ambassador also noted that the one-China principle was enshrined in the agreement establishing diplomatic relations between China and Belarus and has been repeatedly reaffirmed in joint statements by the two heads of state. "The Chinese side highly appreciates the fact that the government and people of Belarus have long firmly adhered to this principle, supported all of China's efforts to safeguard national unity, and resolutely opposed any form of so-called 'Taiwan independence,'" Zhang Wenchuan concluded.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29 (Xinhua) — Democratic governors and attorneys general from 25 U.S. states on Tuesday filed a lawsuit against the Donald Trump administration seeking to continue funding for a food assistance program for millions of Americans next month using emergency funds.

Several US states and the District of Columbia announced they have sued the US Department of Agriculture for illegally withholding Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) payments during the ongoing government shutdown.

In a lawsuit filed in federal court in Massachusetts, the plaintiffs are seeking to block previous administration orders directing states to suspend benefit payments and to force the Department of Agriculture to use all available resources to continue funding SNAP in November.

“Millions of Americans are at risk of going hungry because the federal government has decided to stop funding the food assistance it is required to provide by law,” said New York Attorney General Letitia James.

According to American media, SNAP is the nation's largest hunger-relief program, serving nearly 42 million people, or more than 12 percent of the U.S. population. Most recipients live at or below the federal poverty line.

Minsk, October 29 (Xinhua) — Belarus is not a source of illegal migration for the European Union. This was stated by Belarusian Foreign Minister Maxim Ryzhenkov on Tuesday during an event on migration at the Third Minsk International Conference on Eurasian Security. The corresponding information was published by Belta on the same day.

"Belarus is not a source of illegal migration and cannot be one by definition. Because there are no Belarusian citizens among the illegal migrants caught at the EU border. We are not creating any problems in this regard," stated M. Ryzhenkov, adding that no more than 0.5 percent of the total number of illegal migrants entering the EU from the east, including other routes, enters Belarus through Belarus.

He emphasized that Belarus is also combating illegal migration. The country has taken measures to address the migration problem toward the European Union. These measures include canceling flights for some airlines and tightening visa regimes with certain countries, which has negatively impacted economic and political relations with them.

"We went along with it. Today, the EU confirms this. The migrants detained at the border don't have Belarusian visas. To accuse the Belarusian side today of facilitating illegal migration is completely wrong," the Belarusian Foreign Minister noted.

M. Ryzhenkov assured that Belarus is also concerned about the current situation on the western border, which is not conducive to cross-border cooperation or maintaining normal contacts between people in border regions. All of this has been effectively thwarted, and through no fault of Belarus.

At the same time, he said, there is a willingness to restore cooperation if the European Union takes reciprocal steps. Belarus strives to establish a framework and status for relations with border states that will serve to prevent all threats: illegal migration, smuggling, drug trafficking, and arms trafficking. –0–

Moscow, October 29 (Xinhua) — China supports the idea of a qualitative transformation of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and its transformation into a driving force for regional economic integration. This opinion was expressed by Oleg Timofeev, associate professor at Peoples' Friendship University of Russia (RUDN University), in an interview with Xinhua, commenting on the upcoming informal meeting of APEC leaders, which will be held from October 31 to November 1 in the Republic of Korea.

"The initiative of Chinese President Xi Jinping to create an Asia-Pacific community with a shared future, based on openness, inclusiveness, innovative growth, connectivity, and mutually beneficial cooperation, demonstrates the Chinese leadership's support for the idea of a qualitative transformation of APEC, its transformation into a driving force for regional economic integration, an incubator of ideas and concepts for globalization that take into account the interests of countries adhering to various models of economic development, including countries of the Global South," he said.

As the expert noted, the Asia-Pacific region (APR) has long been a priority area for China's foreign economic cooperation. China's largest trading partners—the ASEAN countries, the United States, the Republic of Korea, Japan, and Russia—are located in this region. "Furthermore, countries in the region highly value the responsible international policy of the Chinese leadership, aimed at achieving mutual benefit, ensuring inclusive development, and assisting countries most in need in implementing their own economic development strategies," the scientist added.

O. Timofeev emphasized that the main challenge to the normal functioning of the cooperation model that emerged within APEC is currently the threat of disruption to established trade and economic ties in the Asia-Pacific region. "It was the Asia-Pacific region that became the primary target of US President Donald Trump's trade tariffs in 2025. Furthermore, it is in the Asia-Pacific region that competition between regional multilateral projects is unfolding in its most acute form," he said.

According to the expert, the importance of Russia and China for each other's economic development has increased dramatically in recent years. Russia's Far East has once again become one of the vanguards of trade and economic cooperation with China. "The treaties and agreements signed during Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent visit to China will undoubtedly elevate cooperation between our countries to a new level, making it more sustainable and less susceptible to the geopolitical turbulence of the modern world," concluded O. Timofeev.
