CHENGDU, Sept. 29 (Xinhua) — The opening of the first expressway linking Jiuzhaigou Valley and Mianyang City in southwest China's Sichuan Province on Monday has cut travel time from Chengdu, the provincial capital, to the UNESCO World Heritage site from eight hours to four.

The Jiuzhaigou-Mianyang Expressway is approximately 246 km long and has two lanes in each direction, with a design speed of 80 km/h.

Built in northwestern Sichuan Province, in a cold, high-altitude region with challenging terrain, the expressway was designed according to the principles of maximum environmental protection, minimum ecological damage, and maximum natural restoration, avoiding excessive excavation, soil fill, and reducing land use, according to its designers.

The new highway not only puts an end to the lack of expressways in Pingwu and Beichuan counties of Mianyang City, but also becomes a major transportation corridor linking Sichuan Province with Gansu, Qinghai, and the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.

Jiuzhaigou Valley, also known as Jiuzhaigou National Park, is known for its spectacular waterfalls, lush forests, serene plateau lakes, and karst rock formations.

Situated in the mountains on the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, it is one of the most popular tourist destinations in China.

According to Guo Xiaomin, deputy director of the Jiuzhaigou Tourism Zone Administration, the number of visitors to the Jiuzhaigou Valley has grown rapidly in recent years. Since the beginning of this year, 5.075 million people have visited the national park, a 26.81 percent increase from the previous year, including 296,000 foreign tourists, a 52.51 percent increase year-on-year.

The opening of this expressway also makes it easier for visitors to access the Bao'en Temple, which inspired the creators of the world-famous AAA Chinese role-playing game "Black Myth: Wukong" to design one of the game's locations. -0-

Washington, September 29 (Xinhua) — The White House is reviewing a plan for European NATO allies to purchase American Tomahawk cruise missiles and transfer them to Ukraine, but the final decision rests with President Donald Trump, US Vice President J.D. Vance said on Fox News.

"I know we're discussing this issue right now," he said. "We're considering it right now. We're certainly considering a number of requests from Europeans."

When asked whether he was personally comfortable with Ukraine receiving Tomahawk missiles and “what threat that would pose,” J.D. Vance began to evade the answer, stating that “the final decision…as to what is in the best interests of the United States” would be made by D. Trump.

According to American media reports, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy proposed a deal (on Tomahawk missiles) during his meeting with Donald Trump on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York last week. Zelenskyy claimed Trump responded, "We'll work on it."

J.D. Vance emphasized that the Trump administration has significantly shifted policy, forcing Europe to shoulder a greater share of the burden. "We're no longer just handing out tons of money and weapons. What we're doing is asking Europeans to buy these weapons," he said.

Meanwhile, he called on Russia to “sit down at the negotiating table and really talk seriously about peace.”

The Tomahawk is a US-made, long-range, subsonic, ground-launched cruise missile with a range of 460-2500 km, depending on the version. This range could allow strikes against areas near Moscow if the missiles were deployed in parts of Europe.
