WASHINGTON, Sept. 5 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order on Friday to rename the Defense Department the "Department of War," local media reported.

The decree will allow this title to be used as an additional one in official correspondence, with titles such as “Minister of War.”

A full legal change would still require congressional approval.

Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have argued that the revival represents a stronger “warrior spirit.” Critics have warned that it could come at a high cost and detract from security priorities.

“Defense is too defensive,” Trump said last month. “We want to defend, but we also want to attack if we have to. So I think that sounds better.”

The Department of War, created in 1789, directed the U.S. Army and oversaw the U.S. armed forces during both world wars before being transformed into the Department of Defense in 1949. –0–

The Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was a "Very Important Part" of the World Anti-Fascist War

Rana Mitter, professor of American-Asian relations at Harvard University's Kennedy School, told reporters that the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was a "very important part" of the World Anti-Fascist War and China's contribution to World War II should be more visible.

Mitter said that after the Lugou Bridge Incident on July 7, 1937, Japan's war of aggression against China was in full swing. At the time, most foreign observers thought China's chances of victory were slim, but China put up a determined fight and the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression "changed everything."

Mitter is the author of China, the Forgotten Ally: The Complete History of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in My Eyes. In his view, after Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, China's stubborn resistance was of great importance. Millions of Japanese soldiers were sent to the Chinese front rather than to other parts of the Asia-Pacific region. Without China's contribution, it would have been "especially difficult" to achieve a common victory for the anti-fascist coalition.

Specialists from the city economy complex have begun rehabilitating the cascade of Yasenevskiye ponds in the southwest of the capital. Their total area is 1.4 hectares. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing and Public Utilities and Improvement Petr Biryukov.

"The Upper, Middle and Lower Yasenevskiye ponds are located on the territory of the park on Paustovsky Street, this is a favorite place for local residents to relax. But now the reservoirs are in an unsatisfactory condition: large volumes of silt deposits have accumulated at the bottom, which has led to a decrease in depth and active overgrowth of algae, and the destruction of coastal strips is observed. In this regard, a decision was made to carry out a comprehensive rehabilitation of the ponds," said Pyotr Biryukov.

The ponds will be cleared of silt deposits, the total volume of which is more than three thousand cubic meters. Then specialists will form the bed of the reservoirs and install a water-resistant layer, which will increase the maximum depth to the required marks.

After that, the structure of the coastal strip, over 800 meters long, will be repaired using gravel and crushed stone. Three zones of the bioplateau with an area of over 348 square meters will be updated here. In the warm season, about 5.7 thousand aquatic plants will be planted on them. The work of the water discharge structures will also be restored. The rehabilitation of the ponds is planned to be completed by the end of this year.

The city's water bodies are regularly inspected. If problems are identified, a decision is made on rehabilitation. The list of water bodies is compiled annually taking into account the wishes of Muscovites. This year, 19 capital ponds are planned to be renovated.

This year, 19 reservoirs will be put in order in Moscow

The activities for the rehabilitation of urban water bodies correspond to the goals and objectives of the national project "Infrastructure for life". You can learn more about Russia's national projects and the capital's contribution at special page.
