UNITED NATIONS Adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged Australia , Feb. 15 (Xinhua) -- UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Sunday night called on all parties in the conflict in eastern Ukraine to abide by "without exception" the ceasefire as agreed earlier this week under the Minsk accords.


In a statement released by Ban's spokesperson, the secretary-general noted that "the ceasefire appears to be largely holding, giving a desperately needed respite to civilians trapped in the area and contributing to a swift and peaceful resolution of the conflict."


On Thursday, leaders of Russia, Ukraine Adidas Ultra Boost Parley Australia , France and Germany announced a peace deal following 14-hour marathon talks in Minsk. The deal envisages a ceasefire between Ukrainian forces and independence-seeking insurgents starting Sunday, followed by the withdrawal of heavy weapons from the front line and constitutional reform to give eastern Ukraine more autonomy.


"However, the Secretary-General is seriously concerned over reports of continued instances of hostilities including in Debaltseve and reiterates his call for all parties to abide by the cease-fire without exception," said the statement.


Hostilities between government troops and pro-independence rebels in eastern Ukraine flared up with a new vigor after the deal was announced. The surge in fighting came as the warring sides accused each other of pushing an offensive to make territorial gains before the ceasefire was scheduled to take effect on Sunday.


Ukrainian Deputy Defence Minister Petro Mekhed said that the rebel forces were aiming to capture the government-controlled Mariupol and Debaltseve towns before the ceasefire deal came into force.


Ban also noted in the statement that the ceasefire forms the basis for the broader implementation of the Minsk accords and he calls on all parties to implement it to restore peace and stability to Ukraine.


CHINESE retail giant Suning Commerce Group Co Ltd, set to tie up a deal for Italian soccer club Inter Milan Adidas Ultra Boost 3.0 Australia , is already eying bigger ambitions: controlling a global sports empire stretching from soccer clubs to online broadcasting.


Suning and Inter Milan are due to make an announcement in Nanjing today, widely expected to confirm that Suning will buy a majority stake in the Italian soccer club.


Amid a wider push by China to increase its standing in the game, Suning’s deal for the 2010 European champions is just the start.


The Chinese electronics retailer is seeking deals to help create a global sporting “ecosystem,” according to a Suning Sports Group document seen by Reuters.


This network would include club ownership, sports media rights Adidas Ultra Boost Australia , player agencies, training institutions, broadcast platforms, content production and sports-related e-commerce, the document shows.


“Suning Sports aims Adidas Tubular Radial Australia , through strategic expansion and acquisitions, to establish a sporting ecosystem along the whole supply chain,” it said in a 20-page presentation outlining its ambitions for the sports business.


A majority stake in Inter Milan would be a big step toward this. It would be a watershed moment for China’s investment in the game, making Suning the first mainland Chinese business to control a major European soccer power.


Suning will also look to become a leader globally in sports media and online, including “creating high-quality sports content” and “establishing a professional broadcast platform Adidas Tubular X Primeknit Australia ,” it said in the presentation.


Suning declined to comment.


Suning, which has annual revenues topping US$20 billion, already has some blocks in place: it owns local club Jiangsu Suning and has splashed millions of dollars on players such as Brazil’s Alex Teixeira and former Chelsea midfielder Ramires.


It also has ties with Spanish champions FC Barcelona, England’s Liverpool FC and a stake in Chinese online content platform PPTV, with sporting content including the Chinese Super League as well as Euro 2016 starting later this month.


The drive tallies with President Xi Jinping’s own goals Adidas NMD Yeezy Boost 350 Australia , which includes ambitious plan to create a domestic sports industry worth US$850 billion by 2025. Xi wants China to one day host, and win, the World Cup.


“Suning is definitely now seen as a bit of a national champion, on par with the likes of Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and Dalian Wanda,” said Mark Dreyer Adidas NMD Human Race Australia , Beijing-based founder of sports information website China Sports Insider.


“I wouldn’t be surprised to see more investments into the game from Suning in the near future, as it looks to piece together assets in various key areas of the business.”


Chinese investors already have minority stakes in Manchester City, Atletico Madrid and New York City FC, while smaller Spanish club Espanyol and England’s Aston Villa are Chinese-owned. AC Milan is also in talks to sell a majority stake to a group of Chinese investors.
