[Russia intends to help restore Central Asia's unified energy system] Gennady Gatilov, Russia's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Office in Geneva, said Russia was ready to help restore Central Asia's unified power system and wanted to develop transport corridors with the region. Gatilov pointed out at the ministerial meeting held within the framework of the United Nations Central Asia Economic Special Plan: Cooperation in the field of energy security is being deepened. This refers to cooperation in the construction of power plants, the construction of nuclear power plants, and the promotion of digital technologies. Our country is willing to provide practical assistance for the restoration of a unified energy system in Central Asia, which will undoubtedly increase the energy security of all countries. In his view, the economic relations of Central Asian countries with Russia play an important role in ensuring the sustainable development of these countries, the functioning and development of all economic sectors, maintaining the level of welfare of residents and reducing the risk of social stress. The diplomat added that Russia's reorientation of imports and exports is promoting the development of transport corridors across the Greater Eurasia region. The key task is to create new trans-Eurasian corridors: East-West and North-South. The promotion of information technology and artificial intelligence, as well as the development of border checkpoints for the seamless movement of goods and goods, will greatly increase the speed of the flow of goods.

• On the afternoon of October 8th, under the on-site escort of the Guangdong Zhanjiang Maritime Bureau's "Haixun 0927" ship, the first flatbed cargo ship dedicated to the transportation of new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait, the "Green Source No. 1" ship, slowly entered the Xuwen Hai'an New Port, marking the successful trial operation of the ship's roll on/roll off transport route in the Qiongzhou Strait. It is reported that the deck cargo ship "Green Source No.1" has a total tonnage of 6731, a net tonnage of 3769, a length of 125.8 meters, and a width of 28 meters. The ship adopts a single-layer deck design, which can carry more than 160 new energy vehicles on a single voyage under full load conditions. The parking capacity is about 60% higher than that of existing passenger and roll on/roll off transport ships. The ship is planned to be deployed on the route from Hai'an New Port in Zhanjiang to Xiuying Port in Haikou. After being put into operation, it will add a new mode of sea transportation for new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait and effectively alleviate the tense situation of insufficient capacity for new energy vehicle transportation during the peak period of cross sea vehicle transportation in the Qiongzhou Strait.
