Almaty, September 30 (Xinhua) — Over the past decades, China has demonstrated impressive achievements in socioeconomic development. Rapid growth, digital transformation, breakthrough innovation, and large-scale social programs have transformed the country into a global leader whose decisions largely determine the world's future. This opinion was expressed by Fatimabibi Daulet, professor of the Department of Chinese Studies at Al-Farabi Kazakh National University (KazNU), in an exclusive interview with Xinhua.

According to the professor, China's poverty alleviation program has become particularly significant, becoming a historic event and an example for developing countries.

Citing a personal example, F. Daulet said that earlier this year she was privileged to complete a month-long training course in India under the ITEC (Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation Programme), which focused on the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

"During my studies, I had the opportunity to interact with colleagues from Africa, who particularly emphasized China's significant contribution to their countries' development—from large-scale infrastructure projects to educational initiatives and social programs. It became clear to me that China's successes go beyond its domestic achievements: they have strengthened its role as a key player in global processes," she shared.

According to F. Daulet, China is not simply sharing its experience today; it is shaping new horizons for global cooperation. At the center of this global agenda is the Belt and Road Initiative, as well as the concept of global governance aimed at creating sustainable and equitable mechanisms for international coordination.

"This is a search for common answers to challenges that affect all of humanity: climate change, energy security, digital transformation, national health, and educational development," the sinologist explained.

The professor noted that KazNU is actively involved in these processes. It hosts a branch of Northwestern Polytechnical University in Xi'an, a Kazakh-Chinese joint laboratory for "Earth Remote Sensing Technologies and Applications," and the Center for Sustainable Development in Central Asia, which aims to address pressing social issues in the region and in the Belt and Road Initiative member states. KazNU has currently established fruitful academic ties with 65 leading universities in China.

"Over the past year, I've had the opportunity to participate in dozens of academic events: international forums, symposiums, and conferences held in China. These platforms bring together progressive humanity around the ideas of collaboration and knowledge exchange. They serve not only as a space for academic discussions but also as a source of strong professional connections that foster the rapprochement of cultures and countries," the Xinhua interviewee told Xinhua.

F. Daulet noted the atmosphere of trust and openness inherent in these academic forums, where every voice is heard and valued, and the joint search for solutions becomes the driving force of global scientific and cultural progress.

“That is why for Kazakhstan, for Al-Farabi KazNU, and for the entire academic community of Central Asia, participation in these processes is not just an opportunity, but a historical mission: to be part of a greater history, where regional development and international cooperation merge for the sake of a sustainable and harmonious future,” concluded F. Daulet. –0–

Tbilisi, September 30 (Xinhua) — Georgia's gross domestic product (GDP) will grow by 7.0 percent in 2025, up from the 6.0 percent forecast in April, and is expected to slow to 5.0 percent in 2026, according to a press release from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) office in Georgia published on Tuesday, citing the ADB's September Asian Development Outlook report.

According to the report, GDP growth is supported by strong performance in the services, information and communications sectors, robust private consumption and a doubling of foreign direct investment.

ADB Country Director for Georgia Leslie Bierman noted that the country will leverage its strategic location and transport network to increase trade and transit volumes, and will continue reforms to ensure sustainable long-term growth.

The inflation forecast has been maintained at 4.0 percent in 2025 and 3.0 percent in 2026, driven by lower global fuel prices, the strengthening of the lari, and the country's fiscal policy.

In the first half of 2025, the national currency, the lari, appreciated by 3.5 percent, and the budget deficit amounted to 3.0 percent of GDP. Georgia's public debt is 35 percent of GDP. –0–

Minsk, September 30 (Xinhua) — Belarus sees the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) as serious players in creating a just, multipolar world order. This was stated by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko on Tuesday at a meeting with the heads of government delegations participating in the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council and the CIS Council of Heads of Government. The corresponding information was published by the press service of the Belarusian leader.

The Belarusian leader noted that the global majority strives for cooperation based on the principles of equality and mutual respect, without dictates and threats, illegal restrictions and coercion. This was confirmed by the recent Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in China.

"Belarus sees the CIS and the EAEU as serious participants in the process of creating a just, multipolar world order. Essentially, the EAEU and the CIS have created a multi-level mechanism for regional cooperation aimed at aligning integration processes," noted Alexander Lukashenko.

In his opinion, the CIS should establish itself as an authoritative and influential organization, effectively promoting the strengthening of equal relations in the political and humanitarian spheres. The EAEU, in turn, should become a model for building strong economic ties based on the principles of openness and mutual benefit.

A. Lukashenko assured that Belarus will continue to actively promote the strengthening of partnerships between countries and the development of integration in all forms. –0–

Beijing, September 30 (Xinhua) — China consistently believes that a peaceful resolution of the Iranian nuclear issue through political and diplomatic means is the only viable option, and opposes the use of force, sanctions, and pressure, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Tuesday.

Guo Jiakun made the statement while commenting on the UN Security Council's failure to adopt a draft resolution proposed by China and Russia on the technical extension of Resolution 2231.

According to him, the proposed resolution aims to provide more time and space for diplomatic negotiations on the Iranian nuclear issue and create favorable conditions for a final political settlement. The Chinese diplomat emphasized that pushing through a sanctions restoration mechanism is not constructive and leads to a setback in the political and diplomatic process.

Guo Jiakun noted that the root cause of the current crisis was the US's unilateral withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. The official spokesperson stated that China calls on the United States and European countries to demonstrate political sincerity, increase diplomatic efforts, return the Iranian nuclear issue to the path of political and diplomatic resolution, and prevent further escalation.

“China will continue to maintain an objective and fair position and play a constructive role in promoting a solution that takes into account the legitimate interests of all parties,” Guo Jiakun concluded. –0–

Moscow, September 30 /Xinhua/ — China's influence on the global economy is becoming increasingly noticeable, according to Chinese Ambassador to Russia Zhang Hanhui in an article published Monday in the Russian newspaper Argumenty i Fakty.

“In recent years, as China’s manufacturing sector has transformed and upgraded, especially with the growth of emerging industries such as electric vehicles, lithium batteries and photovoltaic products – the so-called New Three – China’s influence on the global economic stage has become increasingly visible,” the publication says.

As the Chinese ambassador noted, the rise of China's manufacturing sector has been made possible by an efficient and comprehensive industrial system, a dynamic and vibrant innovation ecosystem, and a fully competitive market environment. "The right to improve the industrial sector and achieve high-quality development through its capabilities, such as innovation and creativity, is the legitimate right of China and other developing countries," the diplomat stated.

Zhang Hanhui emphasized that China's intelligent manufacturing has enriched global supply chains, making once-inaccessible technologies accessible to everyone. "Thanks to this, technological equality has advanced significantly, the achievements of which benefit people around the world," the diplomat asserted.

The Chinese Ambassador to the Russian Federation also noted that China supplies the world with high-quality goods at affordable prices, ensuring the stability of global production and supply chains, reducing the cost of living for consumers around the world, and easing inflationary pressure on the economies of various countries.

Speaking about promoting joint development among countries in the Global South, Zhang Hanhui recalled that in 2021, China published a white paper, "International Development Cooperation in the New Era," which emphasizes the principles of equal partnership, mutual benefit, capacity building, and independent development. "For many years, China has fulfilled its obligations as a responsible state by participating in international development cooperation to expand the capabilities of countries in the Global South," the diplomat emphasized.

According to Zhang Hanhui, China and Russia have consistently been supporters of the multilateral order and partners in the development of countries in the Global South. "Through joint efforts, China and Russia are creating strategic communication platforms for countries in the Global South and expanding integrated development pathways. Together, the countries are raising the banner of multilateralism even higher and increasing the scope for joint development," he said.

“China stands ready to work with Russia and developing countries with emerging economies to advance the global governance system in a more equitable and rational direction, guided by the principles of openness, inclusiveness, fairness, and mutually beneficial cooperation, for the benefit of the people of China and Russia, as well as all countries around the world,” Zhang Hanhui concluded.
