一 | By Liu Xinyu and Wo Xinyao (ECNS) – The "China-Canada Youth Cultural Heritage Conservation International Volunteer Service" program and the China-Canada (Chongqing) Youth Cultural Heritage Art Exchange Camp were held in Chongqing from August 5 to 13. The event aimed to place Chinese and foreign youth at the forefront of cultural heritage conservation, giving them a direct understanding of China's approaches and models in heritage protection. During the event, a group of Chinese-Canadian youth visited the Chongqing Sichuan Opera Theatre, the Dazu Rock Carvings and other cultural sites. Through Sichuan opera experiences, heritage explorations and urban sketching, they gained a deeper understanding of cultural preservation. After the event, the young participants' heritage-themed artworks and "heritage guardian diaries" will be exhibited in Ottawa, Canada, introducing Chongqing's cultural heritage and China's conservation philosophy to local communities. Yiyi Kong, a Chinese-Canadian teenager, told China News Service (CNS): "From the boardwalk at Eling Park, we saw the cityscape of Chongqing -- the towering buildings rising and falling across the hills. It gave me a real sense of the city's unique charm. Once we entered the park, the trees were lush and thick, and we felt like we were stepping into a beautiful garden right in the middle of Chongqing. I think Chongqing is a truly magical city, full of so many different elements." Eva Wang, another Chinese-Canadian participant, told CNS: "I tried on Sichuan opera makeup at the theatre, and later I did sketching at Mountain City Alley in Chongqing. People were passing by all around me, but during that half-hour of sketching, the world seemed to go quiet. I want to capture these details in my drawings and bring them back to Canada, so my friends can see that Chongqing is more than just what you see in short videos. With my eyes and my brush, I want to show the real China to the world." Linya Feng, a Chinese-Canadian teenager, told CNS: "I plan to make the Dazu Rock Carvings a long-term subject of study and to spread the outstanding traditional culture of China to the world." The event was supported by the Chongqing Luhai International Communication Foundation, the Dazu Rock Carving Research Institute, the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute and other organizations.
。 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov arrived in North Korea on Wednesday, according to Russian state news agency Tass, the latest in a flurry of diplomatic activity between the two countries in which Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu visited North Korea in July and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un traveled to Russia in September. Earlier in the week, Lavrov accompanied President Vladimir Putin on a visit to Beijing that underscored Chinese support for Moscow during its war in Ukraine.Lavrov last visited North Korea in 2018. During his two-day visit he is to meet with North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui, Russian state news agency RIA Novosti said. Putin also accepted an invitation from Kim to visit North Korea, but the timing has not been announced. During Kim’s visit to Russia he met Putin at Russia’s Vostochny Cosmodrome and inspected fighter jets at an aircraft factory in Russia’s far east.The White House said on Friday that North Korea has delivered more than 1,000 containers of military equipment and munitions to Russia for its ongoing war in Ukraine.Speculation about a possible North Korean plan to refill Russian munition stores drained by its protracted war with Ukraine flared during Kim's visit to Russia. White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said the U.S. believes Kim is seeking sophisticated Russian weapons technologies in return for the munitions to boost North Korea’s military and nuclear program.Kim called last month for an exponential increase in production of nuclear weapons and for his country to play a larger role in a coalition of nations confronting the United States in a “new Cold War,” North Korean state media said.During Kim’s six-day trip to Russia, his longest foreign travel as a leader, the two countries said they discussed boosting their defense ties but didn’t disclose any specific steps. Foreign experts speculate the two countries, both locked in confrontations with the West, were pushing to reach arms transfer deals in violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions.The trip to Russia was also Kim’s first foreign trip since the pandemic, during which North Korea imposed tight border controls for more than three years. After decades of hot-and-cold relations, Russia and North Korea have drawn closer since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022.Relations between Russia and North Korea go back to the North's foundation in 1948, as Soviet officials installed young, ambitious nationalist Kim Il Sung, Kim's late grandfather, as the country’s first ruler. Soviet aid shipments were crucial in keeping North Korea’s economy afloat for decades before the disintegration of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s.。
