ANTANANARIVO, Sept. 3 (Xinhua) — An official ceremony to return colonial-era relics from France was held in Madagascar's capital Antananarivo on Tuesday.

Three skulls of the Sakalava ethnic group, one believed to have belonged to King Toera and two to his warriors, have been returned to Madagascar after 128 years in France.

“Today we pay tribute to the heroes who sacrificed themselves for their country, and in particular to the courageous struggle that King Toera led in Ambiki (in western Madagascar) in August 1897 against the French colonialists,” Madagascar President Andry Rajoelina said during the ceremony.

Stressing that history cannot be forgotten, he noted: “The return of the relics allows us to understand that the memory of those who fought for their country will never fade.”

“She lives on in our hearts, reminding us of our duty to preserve this heritage and build a united and prosperous nation,” he said. “Making Madagascar a prosperous and respected country, steadily developing and occupying its rightful place on all fronts, is the task we have set ourselves and the goal we must achieve.”

The skulls were officially handed over to Madagascar at a ceremony held at the French Ministry of Culture in late August. Following the official ceremony in Antananarivo, they will be transported later this week to the Menabe region in western Madagascar for burial.

Madagascar became a colony of France in 1896 and gained independence on June 26, 1960. –0–

SAO PAULO, Sept. 3 (Xinhua) — Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has the right to a fair trial for allegedly trying to overthrow the government after losing the 2022 presidential election, President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said on Tuesday.

J. Bolsonaro and his aides face up to 43 years in prison if they are found guilty of attempting a coup.

"I hope that justice will prevail with the right to the presumption of innocence, that's all. I wish for myself and for any of my enemies the right to the presumption of innocence," L.I. Lula da Silva said as the final stage of the trial began in the Supreme Federal Court /the country's highest court/.

The President noted that J. Bolsonaro has the right to self-justification, which was denied to L. I. Lula da Silva when he was arrested in 2018 on corruption charges. The case against him was later closed when it turned out that the anti-corruption operation “Car Wash” was politically motivated.

"He /Bolsonaro/ can defend himself, which I could not. I did not complain, I did not cry," the president told reporters in Sao Paulo. –0–

BEIJING, Sept. 3 (Xinhua) — The rejuvenation of the Chinese nation cannot be stopped, Chinese President Xi Jinping said Wednesday as the country marked the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.

The victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, a great and exhausting war, was a complete victory for China in repelling an external invasion for the first time since the beginning of modern history, Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, said in a speech at a grand gathering held in Beijing to mark Victory Day.

Noting that the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was achieved under the banner of the Anti-Japanese National United Front initiated by the CPC, he said the Chinese people made important contributions to saving human civilization and safeguarding world peace by making enormous sacrifices in this war, which is an important part of the World Anti-Fascist War.

Only if countries and peoples around the world treat each other as equals, live in harmony and support each other can common security be ensured, the root causes of war be eliminated and historical tragedies be prevented from recurring, Xi said.

According to Xi Jinping, today humanity once again faces a choice: peace or war, dialogue or confrontation, win-win or zero-sum games.

The Chinese people will firmly stand on the right side of history and the side of the progress of human civilization, adhere to the path of peaceful development, and join hands with the people of all countries to build a community with a shared future for mankind, he said.

Xi called on the people of all ethnic groups to remain united and work hard under the strong leadership of the CPC to build a great country and comprehensively promote national rejuvenation through Chinese modernization.

Xi Jinping noted that the People's Liberation Army (PLA) should provide strategic support for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and make greater contributions to world peace and development.

He called on the PLA to become a world-class advanced military force and resolutely safeguard the country's national sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity. -0-
