BEIJING, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) — China's port city of Tianjin exported central heating radiators and their parts worth 19.5 million yuan (about 2.74 million U.S. dollars) to Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) countries from January to July 2025, up 71 percent year on year, according to customs statistics released by news platform chinanews.com.cn.

We are talking about the SCO member states and countries that have received the status of observer and dialogue partner of this organization. As the curve of export data of the customs service shows, in recent years, Tianjin, as a traditional strong base in the manufacturing industry in the north of the country with an integrated production chain of central heating batteries, has been actively meeting the growing demand for highly efficient and durable heating equipment in the above-mentioned countries.

The latest result of Tianjin industry enterprises developing markets in the SCO countries is the export of products to Kazakhstan. Quite recently, a well-packed batch of central heating batteries and their spare parts was sent to this country by China-Europe railway. The packaging was labeled “Adapted to the harsh frosty climate of Central Asia.”

“In winter, the air temperature in Central Asia can reach below minus 20 degrees Celsius, so this region is characterized by a long heating season and relatively high pressure in the heating system. Taking these features into account, we have optimized the technical configuration of our products, thanks to which our batteries can more reliably cope with high water pressure and generate 20 percent more thermal energy than conventional batteries,” explained customer relations manager Lu Nan from exporter Tianjin Jiuding Sunshine HVAC Co., Ltd.

The SCO currently has 10 member countries: China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, India, Pakistan, Iran and Belarus. In addition, the organization has two observer countries: Mongolia and Afghanistan, as well as 14 dialogue partners: Azerbaijan, Armenia, Cambodia, Nepal, Turkey, Sri Lanka, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, Bahrain, Maldives, Myanmar, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait. -0-

GUANGZHOU, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) — "The Diary of Lieutenant Donald W. Kerr," which tells the story of the rescue of an American pilot during World War II, was published in simplified Chinese characters in south China's Guangdong Province on Friday.

The book details the story of Lieutenant Donald W. Kerr, a veteran Flying Tiger pilot whose plane was shot down by Japanese forces over Hong Kong in 1944 during a bombing raid on Kai Tak Airport. Kerr was rescued by locals and the Dongjiang Anti-Japanese Column, a guerrilla force led by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

David Kerr, the late lieutenant's second son, attended the book's release ceremony at the Dongjiang Anti-Japanese Column Memorial Museum in Dongguan, Guangdong Province. He said his father fought alongside Chinese soldiers against Japanese forces from 1943 to 1944.

These memoirs are a description of the rescue operation and the work of the partisan detachment through the eyes of an American soldier, and also an important historical material for the study of WWII.

The Dongjiang Anti-Japanese Column, which operated during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression near Hong Kong and Macao, was known for its cooperation with foreign allies, one example of which was the rescue of Kerr.

The bonds forged during the war have been passed down through generations. David Kerr and his family first visited the Dongjiang Anti-Japanese Column Memorial Museum in 2009, donating his father’s flight jacket and photographs to the institution. They returned in 2015 to attend the release of the diary in English and traditional Chinese characters, a visit that marks another milestone in preserving this chapter of history.

“Our father wanted us to know this piece of history. We would also like to share this story with our Chinese friends and in this regard express our gratitude,” said David Kerr. -0-

TEHRAN, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) — Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov exchanged views on Friday on the latest developments around the Iranian nuclear issue.

During the telephone conversation, the parties discussed threats from the EU-3 (France, Britain and Germany) to restore international sanctions against Iran ahead of the expiration of UN Security Council Resolution 2231, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said in a statement released on Saturday.

It is reported that the EU3 countries have neither a legal nor an ethical basis for activating the snapback mechanism, which would imply the restoration of all UN Security Council sanctions against Tehran.

The snapback procedure under the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) allows world powers to reimpose international sanctions if Iran violates the deal.

The statement added that the ministers also exchanged views on the prospects for nuclear talks between Iran and the West and stressed that UN Security Council Resolution 2231 should expire on October 18 as scheduled. –0–

NEW YORK, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) — U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on Friday signaled the possibility of an early interest rate cut, saying the central bank would proceed cautiously while continuing to assess the impact of its policies on the economy.

Speaking at the central bank's annual symposium in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Powell said that as borrowing costs weigh on growth and labor market and inflation pressures ease, "the changing balance of risks may require adjustments in our policies."

He stressed that the Fed faces a “difficult situation” as it seeks to simultaneously achieve low and stable inflation and a healthy labor market, which are at odds with each other.

“Powell’s comments significantly softened expectations for an aggressive series of interest rate cuts, pointing to concerns about inflation, which has been above the Fed’s 2 percent target for more than four years,” the Wall Street Journal reported.

U.S. inflation has risen in recent months but remains well below the peak of 9.1 percent reached three years ago.

Expectations of a rate cut helped boost Wall Street. Stocks rose. The Dow Jones and Nasdaq indexes were up about 2 percent in afternoon trading, while the S&P 500
