BEIJING, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) — The Belt and Road Art Exhibition and the Second China-Russia Art Exhibition 2025 opened at the Cultural Relics Art Center in the Central Business District (CBD) of Sanya, south China's Hainan Province.

According to the Sanya City Government website, the event will run until September 28. Its goal is to deepen exchanges and cooperation between China and Russia in culture and art, strengthen friendship between the two peoples, build bridges between artists from both countries, and showcase their creative achievements.

The exhibition features 83 works by 26 Chinese and Russian artists. Visitors can admire the majestic snowy landscapes of Russia and feel the power of Chinese mountains and rivers through their subtle touches and rich color palette, as well as gain a deeper understanding of the two countries' way of life.

"This is not only a visual feast, but also a valuable opportunity for cultural exchange and mutual learning, which will give new impetus to the development of cultural and artistic affairs in Sanya and enhance the city's cultural taste," said one visitor.

"For me, visiting Hainan is not only an artistic journey, but also a return and cultural reunion. The construction of the free trade port in Hainan allowed me to experience not only the openness of politics and economic dynamism, but also the inclusiveness and innovation of culture. Here, tradition intertwines with modernity, the East engages in dialogue with the West, and art develops and merges in an unprecedented way," said Russian artist Sergey.

He also noted that this exhibition is not only an artistic event, but also a testament to the friendship between the two countries. -0-

Almaty, September 22 (Xinhua) — Kazakhstan's first agro-technopark will open by the end of 2025. This was reported on Monday by a Kazakh media outlet, citing the Kazakh Ministry of Agriculture.

The department clarified that the technology park is being created at the Saken Seifullin Kazakh Agrotechnical University. It will become the first network platform in the agro-industrial complex (AIC) for testing and implementing new developments.

The facility will initially focus on organic production and will later expand its range of activities.

As the ministry explained, the work of the Center for the Transfer and Commercialization of Agricultural Technologies, which attracts investment, facilitates the implementation of foreign technologies, and supports agricultural business projects, is being simultaneously reviewed.

Research is now reportedly focusing on the practical challenges faced by farmers and agricultural enterprises. To reduce barriers related to a lack of capital and specialists, farmers will have greater access to credit.

Long-term goals are enshrined in the Concept for the Development of the Agro-Industrial Complex for 2021–2030. By 2030, the share of applied scientific developments should reach 40 percent, and by 2025, the target figure is 22 percent. –0–

Yerevan, September 22 (Xinhua) — Armenia's public debt increased by 7.9 percent in dollar terms in the first half of 2025, reaching $13.85 billion, Finance Minister Vahe Hovhannisyan said at a meeting of the parliamentary committee on financial, credit, and budgetary issues on Monday.

Presenting the report on Armenia's state budget execution for the first half of the year, the head of the department noted that over the six months, the country's public debt increased by 4.5 percent in dram (the dram is the national currency of Armenia) and by 7.9 percent in dollar terms. The difference is due to the discrepancy between the dram's exchange rate against the US dollar at the end of 2024 and on June 30, 2025.

According to V. Hovhannisyan, the government's debt portfolio risk indicators are within the established benchmarks. The average weighted interest rate in the first half of 2025, compared to the end of 2024, remained unchanged at 7.2 percent.

Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Dmitry Chernyshenko met with Minister of Tourism and Sports of the Republic of Kazakhstan Yerbol Myrzabosynov.

The event was also attended by Russian Minister of Sport Mikhail Degtyarev, Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Dmitry Vakhrukov, Special Representative of the Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs for International Sports Cooperation Mikhail Khorev, and Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Kazakhstan to the Russian Federation Dauren Abayev.

"In the current geopolitical situation, Kazakhstan and Russia remain close friends, true allies, and strategic partners. The foundation of our bilateral relations is the comradely and deeply trusting relationship between our national leaders – Russian President Vladimir Putin and Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. During a working visit to Kazakhstan on September 10, 2025, together with Kazakh Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov, we discussed cooperation between the two countries in various areas," noted Dmitry Chernyshenko.

The Deputy Prime Minister thanked the Kazakh delegation for its athletes' participation in the five sports included in the St. Alexander Nevsky International Sports Games and invited them to the "Russia – Power of Sports" International Sports Forum.

Dmitry Chernyshenko also focused on cooperation in the tourism sector.

"Kazakhstan is one of the top three most popular destinations abroad for Russians. In the first half of 2025, total tourist flow amounted to 2.3 million trips," he reported.

Minister of Tourism and Sports of the Republic of Kazakhstan Yerbol Myrzabosynov noted the regular exchange of invitations to conferences and exhibitions.

"In April 2025, Russian tour operators participated in the 23rd Kazakhstan International Tourism and Travel Exhibition in Almaty. Today, this platform, which brings together approximately 500 companies from various countries, serves as a forum for dialogue and the exchange of experiences. Russia presented stands representing the Altai Krai and St. Petersburg. The Altai Krai is actively developing as an eco-friendly destination. In winter, it offers ski resorts, and in summer, it offers hiking trails, agritourism, and ecotourism. Russia has enormous tourism potential and a wealth of experience," he said.

During the meeting, Yerbol Myrzabosynov requested assistance in organizing the Kazakh delegation's visit to the Altai Krai. He noted the country's developing Chimbulak ski resort, which has already become a popular year-round destination. Last year, it was visited by approximately 1.5 million people.

Yerbol Myrzabosynov also reported that in 2024, Kazakhstani athletes participated in more than 30 sporting events.

"Russia is a sporting power. We value your experience in training athletes for major competitions. It's important for us to learn from this experience and develop joint projects," he added.

Sports Minister and Chairman of the Russian Olympic Committee Mikhail Degtyarev noted that, at the request of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization is discussing with colleagues from Kazakhstan an initiative to hold international competitions next year with the participation of SCO member states in an open format. This will be a new starting point for the development of sports.

"Kazakh athletes participate in many Russian competitions every year. The Alexander Nevsky Games were held in St. Petersburg in September. I thank the Kazakh side for sending a team – the results were very good. Our athletes will soon meet in Azerbaijan at the CIS Games. The first CIS Winter Spartakiad for children with disabilities will be held in Ufa in December. We look forward to welcoming the Kazakh delegation. I would especially like to thank my colleagues from Kazakhstan for their support of Russian athletes on international stages. We feel this solidarity and appreciate it," said Mikhail Degtyarev.

Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Dmitry Vakhrukov reported that the key indicators of the national project "Tourism and Hospitality" demonstrate a targeted and measurable approach.

"We intend to increase the industry's contribution to GDP to 5%, ensuring an increase in tourist arrivals by 50 million. This will be achieved, in part, by welcoming 16 million foreign visitors by 2030 and by growing domestic demand. Total investment in the industry by 2030 is estimated at 3.5 trillion rubles, with over 75% coming from private sources. Our goal is to ensure that every ruble invested in the budget yields a multiple return. This is an ambitious but calculated goal, achievable through consolidated efforts with the regions and businesses," emphasized Dmitry Vakhrukov.
