China will accelerate the development of a comprehensive market regulatory system suited to the healthy development of the country's vast market during the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026–2030), said Shu Wei, deputy administrator of the State Administration for Market Regulation, on Sunday.

Speaking at a press conference, Shu said the administration will continue to improve market entry management for business entities and deepen reform of the registered capital subscription system.

The administration will also strengthen the fair competition review system to tackle typical problems such as hidden market barriers and obstacles to the flow of goods and production factors, he said.

In addition, it will focus on addressing prominent issues that infringe on consumer rights and continue to regulate business activities such as online sales and livestreaming e-commerce, he said.

In terms of food safety supervision, the administration will continue to maintain a high-pressure stance, strengthen the deterrent effect of law enforcement, and crack down hard on prominent issues of strong public concern, such as illegal additives and the production and sale of counterfeit and substandard goods, the official said.

"The overall goal is that by 2030, China will have fully established a unified, standardized and efficient system for the entry and exit of business entities. The quality and effectiveness of fair competition review and anti-unfair competition enforcement will be significantly enhanced. The building of a quality powerhouse will reach a much higher level. Safety supervision of food, drugs, industrial products and special equipment will become more robust and effective. Consumer dispute resolution mechanism will be continuously improved. And the comprehensive market regulatory system will become more mature and well developed," said Shu.

The Council of the European Union (EU) said in a statement on Monday that it had decided to extend the mandate of the EU Military Assistance Mission in support of Ukraine (EUMAM Ukraine) for another two years, until Nov 15, 2028, and establish a presence in Ukraine.

Nearly 300 million euros (about 336.3 million U.S. dollars) has been allocated for the extended period. The planned presence in Ukraine aims to ensure direct and effective coordination with Ukrainian military authorities, the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) and like-minded international partners, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Norway.

The mission will also cooperate with the Coalition of the Willing and NATO under the NATO Security Assistance and Training for Ukraine (NSATU) command, said the statement.

The decision follows a recent strategic review of EUMAM, which led to an expansion of the mission's mandate, with a focus on ensuring that EU training evolves in line with the UAF's needs, drawing lessons from the battlefield and strengthening military training in support of Ukraine's defense agenda, according to the statement.

The Council described the mission as a key instrument of the EU's military support for Ukraine. Since its establishment in October 2022 at Ukraine's request, the mission has trained more than 100,000 soldiers.

Established by a Council decision on Oct 17, 2022, EUMAM Ukraine initially had a two-year mandate. The mission provides individual, collective and specialized training to the UAF in EU member states and coordinates and synchronizes training delivered by member states. The mission is financed by the European Peace Facility.
