Russia supplies 32 pct of global diamond in 2024
MOSCOW, June 3 (Xinhua) -- Russia exported 30.37 million carats of diamonds in 2024, a 6.3 percent decline in comparison to the previous year, according to the data released by the Kimberley Process, an international diamond certification scheme. Revenues from diamond exports fell by 29 percent in 2024 to 2.62 billion U.S. dollars from 3.68 billion dollars in 2023, according to the statistics. Russia produced 37.32 million carats of diamonds in 2024, maintaining the same output as in the previous year. Russia accounted for 32 percent of global diamond supply last year, while Botswana accounted for 24 percent, Angola 12 percent, and Canada 11 percent. Among the largest exporters of diamonds were the United Arab Emirates with a 30 percent share in global supplies, the European Union with 14 percent, and Russia with 11 percent. India was the largest importer of diamonds in 2024, according to TASS. In an interview with RIA Novosti, Alexey Kalachev, an analyst at Russian financial services company Finam, noted that Western sanctions have had little impact on Russian diamond exports last year, and attributed the decline to a crisis in the global diamond market. He believes that if the sanctions had worked, diamond prices would have increased due to global shortages. He said that the 29 percent drop in export revenues was in part due to a decline in shipments and lower global prices. The Kimberley Process was established in 2000 in South Africa. Its participants are countries producing and importing diamonds, which set the goal of removing "conflict" diamonds used for arms and support of anti-government and terrorist organizations from being traded internationally and ensure transparency in the global diamond market. The Kimberley Process ensures control over export-import operations, covering up to 99 percent of global turnover of diamonds.

Tennis-Sabalenka calls for marquee women's matches to start later at French Open
Tennis - French Open - Roland Garros, Paris, France - June 3, 2025 Belarus' Aryna Sabalenka reacts during her quarter final match against China's Qinwen Zheng REUTERS/Stephanie Lecocq PARIS (Reuters) -World number one Aryna Sabalenka and Paris Olympics champion Zheng Qinwen began their French Open quarter-final in front of a small crowd on Tuesday, prompting calls for such high-profile matches to be moved to later slots to showcase them better. A sumptuous lunch often takes priority for fans in Court Philippe Chatrier's corporate seats and the Parisian cultural practice leaves many seats unoccupied in the showcourt when matches begin at 11 a.m. local time. Sabalenka overcame her Chinese opponent 7-6(3) 6-3 in just under two hours to leave her with the rest of the day off but the Belarusian said organisers could do better despite fans trickling in later to improve the atmosphere. "I didn't really look in the crowd, but it felt like it was a lot of people. Yeah, it was a big match and it probably would make more sense to put us a bit later just so more people could watch it," Sabalenka told reporters. "At the same time, I'm happy to finish earlier and then I have a half-day off, and I can just enjoy the city and do all the things that I have to do." Reuters has contacted organisers for comment. The French Open's scheduling decisions have come under a harsh spotlight again this year with no women's match featured in the evening sessions which begin at 8.15 p.m. local time and are exclusively broadcast by Amazon Prime in France. French Open tournament director Amelie Mauresmo said last week that women's matches, played over a maximum of three sets as opposed to the five on the men's side, could finish "really fast" and having an extra match in that slot was unfeasible. "We deserve the equal treatment," Sabalenka said. "There were a lot of great battles, a lot of great matches, which would be cool to see as a night session (match), just more people in the stands watching these incredible battles and to show ourselves to more people. "I definitely agree that we deserve to be put in a bigger stage, like better timing and more people watching." Sabalenka will continue her bid for a maiden French Open title against four-times champion Iga Swiatek. "I love tough challenges," she added. "These are the matches where you actually improve as a player, and where you get much stronger. I'm always excited to face someone strong and someone who can challenge me. "I will go out there and fight, and I'm ready to leave everything I have to get the win." (Reporting by Shrivathsa Sridhar in Paris, editing by Ed Osmond)

China lodges stern representations over US-Japan-Australia-Philippines' hype over so-called 'China-threat'
BEIJING, June 3 (Bernama-Xinhua) -- China has expressed strong dissatisfaction and resolute opposition to the United States, Japan, Australia, and the Philippines for hyping the so-called "China threat" and inciting regional confrontation over issues related to the East China Sea and South China Sea, a Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson said on Tuesday, reported Xinhua. China has lodged stern representations with them, said spokesperson Lin Jian at a daily press briefing in response to questions regarding the negative comments made by the four countries about China at the Shangri-La Dialogue. "Bloc politics and camp confrontation reflect a Cold War mentality, which runs counter to the trend of the times and is unwelcome among regional countries," Lin said, adding that such acts neither resolve problems nor can they intimidate China. Lin said China's determination and will to safeguard its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests are steadfast. "We urge the United States and its allies to stop smearing and vilifying China on maritime issues, distorting the facts, and shifting blame. "They should cease forming exclusive 'small circles' and halt actions that undermine or disrupt regional countries' efforts to resolve disputes through dialogue, uphold peace, and maintain stability," Lin said. - Bernama-Xinhua
