BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

    Chinese Ambassador to Lebanon Qian Minjian 

The Chinese Ambassador to Lebanon Qian Minjian elaborated on China's position on the Ukrainian crisis, stressing that the priority now is that all parties maintain necessary restraint to prevent the situation from becoming increasingly aggravated and deteriorating.

In an interview with Al-Mayadeen, Minjian stressed that China calls for respecting and ensuring the sovereignty and territorial integrity of states and practical adherence to the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter, emphasizing that they believe the security of one country should not be established at the expense of the security of other countries.

The Chinese ambassador stressed that the mentality of the Cold War must be completely abandoned, and the reasonable security concerns of all countries must be respected, noting that in light of the five successive rounds of NATO expansion to the east, Russia's legitimate security demands must be taken into account and dealt with appropriately.

He added that China has been following the developments of the Ukrainian issue, and the current situation is not what it wishes to see. The Ambassador noted that the safety of civilians' lives and property should be ensured to avoid a large-scale humanitarian crisis.

Minjian stressed that China welcomes dialogue between Russia and Ukraine, and encouraged them to hold negotiations as soon as possible, adding that European and Russian sides should hold discussions on security issues in Europe while adhering to the concept of indivisible security.

According to Minjian, the UN Security Council should play a constructive role in settling the Ukrainian crisis while concentrating efforts on achieving regional peace and stability. He explained that his country does not always agree that the UN Security Council resorts in its resolutions arbitrarily to Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, which authorizes using force and imposing sanctions.

It is noteworthy that Russian President Vladimir Putin has declared that the goal of the special military operation is to protect people who have been subjected to genocide by the Kiev regime for the past eight years.

The operation aims to prevent the demilitarization and disarmament of Ukraine and to bring to justice all those responsible for the bloody crimes against civilians in Donbass.
