SHANGHAI, Oct. 25 (Xinhua) — Shanghai Disneyland welcomed 14.7 million visitors in 2024, maintaining its 5th place among the world's most visited theme parks, according to a recent report by the Themed Entertainment Association, a U.S.-based international non-profit organization.

Shanghai Disneyland became the fastest-growing of the world's top 10 parks, with attendance increasing by 5% year-on-year last year. It also retained its title as China's most popular and visited theme park.

The report states that the Asia-Pacific theme park market is expected to maintain growth at 3.2 percent in 2024, driven primarily by China, where Shanghai Disneyland delivered outstanding results. Other Chinese parks, including Universal Beijing Resort and Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park, also made significant contributions.

Shanghai Disney Resort, which opened in June 2016 and includes Shanghai Disneyland, is currently actively working on expansion projects. These projects include the construction of a new Spider-Man-themed land and a third Disney-themed hotel, as well as an expansion of the Soaring Over the Horizon attraction.

Washington, October 24 (Xinhua) — The US military has deployed a carrier strike group led by the USS Gerald Ford-class aircraft carrier and a carrier air wing to the US Southern Command area of responsibility, Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell announced on social media on Friday.

The U.S. Southern Command area of responsibility includes Latin America south of Mexico, waters adjacent to Central and South America, and the Caribbean Sea.

As Sh. Parnell indicated in his post on the social network X, the deployment was carried out “in support of the decree of the President /US Donald Trump/ on the elimination of transnational criminal organizations and the fight against drug terrorism in order to protect the Motherland.”

These forces will strengthen and complement existing capabilities to combat drug trafficking and weaken and dismantle transnational criminal organizations, the official representative said.

Beijing, October 24 (Xinhua) — To maintain peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, it is necessary to adhere to the one-China principle and firmly oppose separatist activities aimed at achieving "Taiwan independence," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Friday.

Guo Jiakun made the statement at a regular press briefing in response to a question about German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul's comments regarding the one-China principle in an interview.

The official representative noted that there is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is part of it. The government of the People's Republic of China is the sole legitimate government representing all of China. "This is the most complete, accurate, and only true definition of the one-China principle. Any other interpretation is unacceptable," he stated.

According to the Chinese diplomat, the greatest threat to peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait comes from separatist activities to achieve "Taiwan independence" and from the connivance and support of external forces.

Guo Jiakun emphasized that maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait requires strict adherence to the one-China principle and resolute opposition to separatist activities seeking "Taiwan independence." Those who merely call for maintaining the status quo but fail to oppose "Taiwan independence" are, in fact, condoning separatist actions that undermine peace and stability in the Strait, the official representative emphasized.

“We hope that Germany will strictly adhere to the one-China principle and categorically oppose separatist activities to achieve ‘Taiwan independence,’” he concluded. –0–

BEIJING, Oct. 24 (Xinhua) — The Standing Committee of the 14th National People's Congress (NPC) of China adopted a resolution at its 18th session establishing October 25 as Taiwan Liberation Memorial Day.

In accordance with the resolution adopted at the five-day session that opened on Friday, the state will hold commemorative events in various forms on this day.

In 1895, the Qing Dynasty government, defeated in the war waged by Japan against China, was forced to cede Taiwan and the Penghu Islands to Japan.

In 1945, all Chinese people, including Taiwanese compatriots, won a great victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, which led to the return of Taiwan to the bosom of the motherland.

According to the resolution, the liberation of Taiwan from Japanese occupation is an important outcome of the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and convincing evidence of the Chinese government's restoration of sovereignty over Taiwan.

It is pointed out that this liberation is an important link in the historical fact and legal chain confirming that Taiwan is a part of China, as well as the common glory of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the national memory of the entire Chinese people.

This decision was made in accordance with the Constitution and is aimed at upholding the results of the Victory in the World Anti-Fascist War and the post-war international order, demonstrating a firm will to adhere to the one-China principle and protect national sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity, and strengthening the common national and historical memory of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

Explaining the draft resolution of the NPC Standing Committee, Shen Chunyao, Chairman of the Legislative Affairs Working Committee of the NPC Standing Committee, recalled that on October 25, 1945, a surrender ceremony for Japanese troops in Taiwan Province in the Chinese theater of war was held in Taipei, marking the return of Taiwan and the Penghu Islands to Chinese sovereignty.

Shen Chunyao noted that in recent years, NPC deputies, members of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and Taiwan compatriots have repeatedly proposed establishing Taiwan Liberation Memorial Day and holding commemorative events in this regard.

According to him, the establishment of Taiwan Liberation Memorial Day and the holding of commemorative events at the state level help reflect the undeniable historical fact that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China, strengthen the international community's commitment to the one-China principle, guide compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to preserve and spread the great spirit forged during the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and inspire all Chinese to unite in the struggle for the reunification of the motherland and the revival of the nation.
