WASHINGTON, Sept. 19 (Xinhua) — A group of U.S. Democratic senators on Thursday introduced the first-ever resolution in the upper house of Congress calling for the United States to recognize a demilitarized Palestinian state.

The non-binding resolution calls on Hamas to disarm and release hostages, while simultaneously demanding that Israel end the conflict and cease settlement expansion. The resolution failed to gain support among Senate Republicans.

Supporters of the resolution expressed hope that it would help increase pressure on the Donald Trump administration to resolve the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

"Recognizing a Palestinian state is not only a practical step the United States can take to help build a future in which both Palestinians and Israelis can live in freedom, dignity, and security, but it's also the right thing to do. America has a responsibility to lead, and now is the time to act," Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley, who led the effort to sponsor the resolution, said Thursday.

The politician called the creation of two states for two peoples the foundation for peace and prosperity and the only realistic path to them. He warned that Israel's current policies and military actions in Gaza will lead to a dire future for both Israelis and Palestinians.

Furthermore, on Wednesday, independent Senator Bernie Sanders declared that Israel is committing "genocide" in Gaza. "Over the past two years, Israel has not merely defended itself against Hamas. Instead, it has unleashed a full-scale war against the entire Palestinian people," he emphasized.

The last vestiges of life for civilians in Gaza City are being destroyed by Israeli military operations that have resulted in widespread casualties, destruction and increased restrictions on humanitarian activities, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said on Thursday.

The number of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in the Gaza enclave since October 7, 2023, has exceeded 65,000, according to Gaza health authorities.

Beijing, September 19 (Xinhua) — The fight against desertification on the fringes of the Taklamakan Desert in northwest China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) is making rapid progress. The desert is now completely encircled by a 3,046-kilometer-long green belt, the longest in the world, according to a white paper released by the State Council Information Office on Friday.

The document, titled "The CPC's Strategy for Governing Xinjiang in the New Era: Practices and Achievements," states that Xinjiang firmly implements the concept of "green mountains and emerald waters are priceless treasures" and, through unified planning, systematically manages mountainous areas, river and lake environments, forests, arable lands, and grasslands, and continuously strengthens its capacity to ensure ecological security.

Well-planned, large-scale greening programs have been implemented in the region. As a result, forest cover has increased from 4.24 percent in 2012 to 5.07 percent in 2024, according to the White Paper.

Over the past three decades, the area of oases has increased by 56.6 percent. Xinjiang's accelerated ecological transformation is also reflected in the region's active efforts to achieve carbon neutrality and peak carbon emissions targets, while carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP continue to decline. -0-

New Horizons in Political Science: Vietnamese State University of Management (GUU) PhD Students Successfully Defend Their Dissertations

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Official website of the State –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On September 15, two young scientists from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam defended their dissertations at the National University of Management, a graduate school. The defense took place at the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration.

Tu Thi Thoa submitted a paper titled "Problems of Building a Democratic Society in the Context of a Single-Party System in Contemporary Vietnam" for the degree of Candidate of Political Sciences in the specialty 5.5.2 "Political Institutions, Processes, and Technologies," while Nguyen Duc Cuong prepared a research paper titled "Renewal of the Political System in the Context of Ensuring Political Stability in Contemporary Vietnam." Both dissertations were completed in the graduate program of the State University of Management (SUM) in the Department of Public Administration and Political Technologies. Their supervisor was Vladimir Volokh, Doctor of Political Sciences and Professor of the Department.

Leading experts in political science and the study of contemporary political processes participated in the work of the Dissertation Council of the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (RANEPA).

Official reviewers provided positive feedback, noting that the research was conducted at a high scientific, methodological, and practical level. The comments by V.Yu. Ledeneva, I.S. Amiantova, and S.A. Stepanov, as the scientists themselves emphasize, are merely recommendations and do not affect the overall results or quality of the presented work.

The assessments of the chair and members of the dissertation council were also positive. During the academic discussion, it was noted that Vietnam, with its unique historical and political trajectory, is of particular interest for political science analysis. In the context of global transformations and regional challenges, such as the growing influence of major powers in Southeast Asia, geopolitical tensions in the South China Sea, and growing interdependence on global markets, maintaining domestic political stability has become a paramount task. Vietnam, while maintaining a socialist system and the Communist Party's monopoly on power, simultaneously demonstrates a desire for modernization and integration into the global community. Under these circumstances, the key question is how democratic institutions and practices can be formed and developed within a single-party system.

The candidates successfully answered questions from the dissertation committee members and official opponents, formulating their own vision for the development of democratic institutions in modern Vietnam. Following their defenses, the assembled panel unanimously voted to award the PhD degree in political science to Tu Thi Thoa and Nguyen Duc Cuong in the specialty 5.5.2 "Political Institutions, Processes, and Technologies."

We wholeheartedly congratulate the young scientists and wish them further success and creative growth.
