SEOUL, Dec. 15 (Xinhua) — South Korea's special investigative committee on Monday concluded its investigation into the sedition case against former President Yun Seok-yul.

Special Prosecutor Cho Eun-seok, who led the investigation into Yun Seok-yul's insurrection and other crimes, said at a televised press conference that his team had indicted a total of 24 people, including the former president himself, the former prime minister, the former vice prime minister for economic affairs, and other ministers and secretaries of the presidential administration.

According to the prosecutor, the investigation revealed that Yun Seok-yel, who took office in May 2022, had been preparing to introduce martial law even before October 2023 in order to monopolize and maintain his power.

To create a pretext for declaring martial law, Yun Seok-yol attempted to provoke a military response from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) by conducting unusual military operations. However, this attempt was unsuccessful, as the DPRK did not respond militarily, the prosecutor noted.

On April 4, 2025, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Korea upheld the impeachment petition against Yun Seok-yeol in connection with the attempted introduction of martial law in December of the previous year, formally removing him from office.

On January 26, the ousted leader was arrested on charges of organizing a rebellion. –0–

The State University of Management library hosted a roundtable discussion, "Service Learning: Integration into University Project Work," for SUM faculty and guests from other Moscow and regional universities.

Veronika Balandina, head of the project office for the Service-Learning program at GUU, discussed the differences between the program and volunteering:

"Volunteering is a wonderful way to spend your free time, but service-learning is about education, about the opportunity to develop professional competencies by implementing real socially significant projects while still in college. The Service-Learning program aims to develop students' citizenship, patriotism, leadership, civic solidarity, and traditional values by solving a socially significant problem within the framework of the core educational program," emphasized Veronika Balandina.

Pavel Pavlovsky, Vice-Rector of the State University of Management, also addressed the roundtable participants: "Service-learning is an ideal tool that resonates with the motivational characteristics of the current generation of young people. They want to do good. Those who implement service-learning participate in reshaping society toward positive change."

Previously, the State University of Management team took second place among 590 Russian universities in the All-Russian Competition of Best Practices in Organizing Community and Volunteer Activities in the category "Best Practices in Implementing the Service-Learning Program."

The roundtable discussion was organized as part of the second All-Russian Interuniversity Project Festival, "The Project Path: From Idea to Lessons Learned," with the support of the Interregional Educational and Methodological Center for Project-Based Learning, "Project-Based Learning as a Practical Training Technology," based at the State University of Management.

We thank all participants for their lively dialogue, valuable ideas, and commitment to developing the Service-Learning program at Russian universities. We hope this exchange of experiences will provide a solid foundation for new initiatives that will help students not only gain knowledge but also apply it for the benefit of society.

A reunion of alumni from the Project Management Department was held at the State University of Management to commemorate the 95th anniversary of the birth of Mark Lvovich Razu, one of the founders of the Russian project management school.

The event brought together more than 180 graduates who graduated from GUU from 1986 to 2024.

The meeting began with a "mock lecture" in the regular classroom, where department professors asked questions on their subjects, and the graduates competed to recall the correct answers faster than anyone else. Students also had the opportunity to show off their erudition in an intellectual quiz and a "Guess the Professor" contest based on real-life facts.

In addition, graduates left their "apple" on the "Tree with Golden Fruits," sharing stories of their life's greatest achievements with classmates and teachers.

"I am very grateful to my mentors who helped me unlock my potential during my studies and guide me on my career path. After defending my thesis, I realized I was ready to open my own speech therapy center and realize everything I had planned in my thesis. Eight years have passed, and today I am a successful entrepreneur who has realized my dream and is working in a field that brings joy to me and my clients," shared Lyudmila Myakisheva, a 2017 graduate of the Project Management Master's program.

"I'd like to give advice to current students of the department and those interested in enrolling in the Project Management program: don't miss your opportunity! Five years after graduating, I understand how important it is to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the department and SUM. Today, I'm the CEO of the only company in Russia that provides payment equipment and digital menus for the restaurant industry, and I continue to collaborate with the department as a partner. I'm happy to take on young interns, and if they perform well, I'll hire them full-time," said Danila Tymchik, a 2020 bachelor's degree graduate of the Project Management department.

The "Project Management Department Alumni Reunion" was organized by third-year students of the Project Management Department. Under the supervision of Ekaterina Khalimon, they meticulously planned the event, worked with partners and contractors, maintained extensive communications with alumni, worked on the design and decoration, organized the venue, and hosted the reunion itself. The alumni noted the team's timely communication about all the details of the event before it began and expressed their gratitude to project manager Kamilla Magomedova.

The State University of Management (SUM) held a thematic class for 10th- and 11th-grade students, focusing on business development prospects in the fuel and energy sector (FEC) and the fundamentals of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) design. The event was organized as part of the RosGeoTech Advanced Engineering School (AES) project, implemented jointly by SUM and the M.D. Millionshchikov Grozny State Petroleum Technological University.

Before the meeting, Maxim Pletnev, Head of the Scientific Research Coordination Department at the State University of Management, spoke to the students about the extensive work of the RosGeoTech School, focusing on modern trends in energy, automation, and digitalization of the fuel and energy sector.

Andrey Luzhetsky, head of the Advanced Engineering School, addressed the participants with a welcome video message, emphasizing that the modern energy business involves not only resource extraction and processing, but also high technology, innovation, and environmental responsibility.

The central part of the event was a presentation by an energy and digital technology expert, who explained key areas of business development in the fuel and energy sector to schoolchildren: the transition to alternative energy sources, the implementation of smart grids, the use of big data to optimize production and logistics, and the development of hydrogen energy projects.

Particular emphasis was placed on the role of unmanned technologies in the modern energy sector. The students received a detailed explanation of the design of unmanned aerial vehicles, their types, operating principles, and applications in the fuel and energy sector: from monitoring main pipelines and power lines to inspecting industrial facilities and environmental monitoring.

During the practical portion of the class, participants were able to examine drone models, understand their design features, and even try their hand at being operators by piloting drones in simulators.

"Today, drones are more than just flying cameras; they're a vital tool for improving energy efficiency and safety. Understanding the fundamentals of how they work opens up new opportunities for future engineers, entrepreneurs, and managers," the lecturer noted.

The event allowed schoolchildren not only to gain up-to-date knowledge about trends in the fuel and energy sector and unmanned technologies, but also to consider their professional future in one of the most dynamic and technologically advanced sectors of the economy.

/Voice of the South/ Exclusive: Chinese initiatives promote the participation of countries of the Global South in solving global problems – former head of the Kyrgyz Foreign Ministry

Bishkek, December 15 /Xinhua/ — China's initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative and the Global Governance Initiative (GGI) allow for greater participation by countries in the Global South in addressing global challenges and expanding their representation on international platforms, former Kyrgyz Foreign Minister Alikbek Jekshenkulov told Xinhua.

According to him, the countries of the Global South, which make up a significant portion of the world's population and global economy, are forming a persistent demand for a more equal international order and are advocating for strengthening multilateralism and reforming international institutions where developing countries have traditionally been underrepresented.

"Through the Belt and Road Initiative and the Global Governance Initiative, countries of the Global South are significantly strengthening their participation in addressing global challenges in various areas, including development, climate, infrastructure, and the digital divide," noted A. Dzhekshenkulov. "I believe that China's concept of a community with a shared future for humanity aligns with the interests of countries in the Global South, as it is focused on collective solutions rather than Western dominance."

A. Dzhekshenkulov believes that multilateral platforms such as the Belt and Road Initiative and the SCO have become leading instruments of South-South cooperation, offering countries an alternative to traditional Western development models. "Their particular appeal stems from the absence of political conditions, an emphasis on pragmatism, infrastructure connectivity, and support for economic growth," he emphasized.

In his view, the implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative, through which China has signed cooperation agreements with over 150 countries and over 30 international organizations, is ensuring the construction of key infrastructure, reducing logistics costs, and expanding trade between countries of the Global South. The SCO complements the economic component with a systemic security policy, including the fight against terrorism and extremism, border coordination, and the creation of a favorable security environment for project implementation.

This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. As the former minister noted, this anniversary year carries profound symbolic and practical significance for the modern world, particularly amid the escalation of various regional conflicts. He also praised China's position on relevant historical issues and on global security.

"China emphasizes the importance of preserving historical truth and the results of the post-war world order based on the UN Charter. This is especially relevant against the backdrop of growing conflicts and tendencies toward bloc thinking," noted A. Dzhekshenkulov, adding that recalling the lessons of World War II serves as a reminder of the need for dialogue, respect for sovereignty, and the inadmissibility of revisionism.

"The Chinese approach is aimed at strengthening international stability through remembering history, preventing confrontation, and eliminating the root causes of conflicts," he emphasized.

China is steadfastly pursuing the path of peaceful development and has also put forward the Global Security Initiative. According to A. Dzhekshenkulov, these two concepts complement each other. "The first reflects China's domestic commitment to development and the rejection of hegemony, while the second represents a foreign policy framework that offers partners a concept of indivisible security, dialogue, and joint risk response. Together, these approaches form a practical basis for strengthening international peace and stability," he stated.

In October of this year, the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was held in Beijing. The session reviewed and adopted the CPC Central Committee's Proposals for the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development. According to A. Dzhekshenkulov, this event confirms China's commitment to high-level openness, innovation, and green transformation, and signals its readiness to expand cooperation and integration into the global economy.

He also believes that China will open up new opportunities for the world in the future, particularly in three key areas: innovation, the green economy, and digital transformation.

"China will strengthen its position in artificial intelligence, biotechnology, new materials, and 6G, creating platforms for international projects and cooperation in advanced sectors," said A. Dzhekshenkulov, adding that the transition to low-carbon development and circular models will create demand for joint projects in energy, electric mobility, and climate adaptation. At the same time, the development of digital infrastructure and e-commerce will expand foreign companies' access to Chinese innovations and the market.

According to the former head of the Kyrgyz Foreign Ministry, China will make efforts to strengthen multilateral mechanisms, including the Belt and Road Initiative, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, and promote the development of sustainable supply chains. "These steps open up additional opportunities for countries around the world for growth, investment, and technological innovation," he concluded.

RIYADH, Dec. 15 (Xinhua) — Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, said Sunday that China has always regarded Saudi Arabia as a priority in its Middle East diplomacy and an important partner in its global diplomatic strategy, and is willing to work with Saudi Arabia to elevate bilateral ties to a higher level.

Wang Yi made the remarks at the 5th meeting of the Political Subcommittee of the China-Saudi Arabia High-Level Joint Commission in Riyadh, which he co-chaired with Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud.

According to him, the kingdom is an important member of the Arab and Islamic worlds and an independent force in the process of multipolarity.

Wang Yi noted that in recent years, under the strategic leadership of Chinese President Xi Jinping, Saudi Arabia's King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, exchanges and cooperation between the two countries in all areas have developed soundly and sustainably. Relations between China and Saudi Arabia are increasingly transcending bilateral cooperation, acquiring greater strategic significance and global influence, the diplomat noted.

He stressed that China is ready to work with Saudi Arabia to implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries.

Wang Yi called on both sides to firmly adhere to the established direction of bilateral relations, firmly support each other on issues concerning core interests, better coordinate cooperation in various fields, continuously enrich the content of the comprehensive strategic partnership, and elevate bilateral ties to a new level.

Noting that next year will mark the 10th anniversary of the comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries, Wang Yi stated that China is willing to further strengthen high-level contacts with Saudi Arabia and welcomes Saudi leaders to visit China next year to attend the second China-Arab States Summit. He added that China looks forward to working with the Kingdom to ensure the success of the summit.

Wang Yi also said that China is willing to maintain close coordination with Saudi Arabia in preparation for the 5th meeting of the China-Saudi Arabia High-Level Joint Commission to support and ensure the smooth progress of major bilateral agendas next year.

Stressing that China and Saudi Arabia are important economic and trade partners, Wang Yi said China will continue to expand opening-up during the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026-2030), creating new opportunities for bilateral cooperation.

He called on both sides to strengthen cooperation in areas such as energy and investment, while expanding cooperation in new areas including renewable energy and the green transition.

China welcomes the increased inflow of Saudi funds and supports Chinese enterprises in investing and doing business in Saudi Arabia. Wang Yi also expressed hope that the Kingdom will continue to create favorable conditions for Chinese businesses.

The two sides should also strengthen exchanges in culture, tourism and other fields, promote people-to-people contacts, deepen mutual understanding and strengthen the fraternal friendship between the two peoples, Wang Yi said.

He stressed that China supports Saudi Arabia in its efforts to play a more significant role in international and regional affairs, host Expo 2030 Riyadh, and is willing to strengthen communication and coordination with Saudi Arabia on international and regional platforms to realize genuine multilateralism and safeguard international fairness and justice.

In turn, Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud stated that relations between the two countries are currently experiencing a period of active development, with the comprehensive strategic partnership constantly deepening and practical cooperation yielding fruitful results. He noted that close interaction between the two heads of state has served as a guideline and allowed them to define a clear plan for the development of bilateral relations.

He said Saudi Arabia firmly adheres to the one-China principle, highly values China's development achievements, and is willing to maintain close high-level exchanges, learn from China's best practices, and deepen cooperation in trade, investment, energy, and the circular economy to achieve mutually beneficial and win-win results.

Saudi Arabia looks forward to the 2nd China-Arab States Summit and the China-GCC Summit to be held in China in 2026, and is ready to make all necessary preparations and actively advance negotiations on the China-GCC Free Trade Agreement, the Saudi minister noted.

Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud added that Saudi Arabia invites more Chinese enterprises to invest and conduct business in the country and is ready to offer them more preferential terms.

The Saudi diplomat noted that his country highly values China's important role in international affairs, supports a number of global initiatives put forward by Xi Jinping, and is ready to strengthen multilateral interaction and coordination with China to protect the common interests of developing countries and jointly advance the process of multipolarity, he added.

The parties also exchanged views on international and regional issues, including events in the Middle East and Afghanistan.

Following the meeting, the foreign ministers of the two countries signed an agreement on mutual visa-free travel for holders of diplomatic, service, and special passports. –0–
