It is a major concept proposed by President Xi Jinping to build a global community of shared future with a focus on the future of the world. We have learned that President Xi Jinping has also put forward the principles of amity, sincerity, mutual benefit, and inclusiveness in forging China's relations with neighboring countries, and has emphasized pursuing the greater good and shared interests with other developing nations. These principles offer a well-conceived and comprehensive framework for diplomatic efforts across various domains. How do you interpret the guiding role of Xi Jinping Thought on Diplomacy in the new era? Thank you.

Sun Yeli:

I would like to invite Mr. Wang Yi to answer your question.

Wang Yi:

You raised quite an important question. Building a global community of shared future is a key part of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and also a core concept of Xi Jinping Thought on Diplomacy. The vision of building a global community of shared future leads the trend of the times and directs human progress; the principles that we follow to develop ties with our neighboring countries — amity, sincerity, mutual benefit, and inclusiveness — are part of this vision, and so is our commitment to taking the right approach to friendship and interests to strengthen cooperation with other developing countries. These principles and initiatives that President Xi Jinping has put forward so far are the country's consistent pursuit, all demonstrating that the Chinese Communists always maintain a global vision and the Chinese nation takes it as its mission to pursue a common good for all.

Building a global community of shared future is China's answer to the call of the times. As human society develops, nations have seen their individual markets merged into a global one, their respective experiences combined into world history, and the international community turned into a global village. Meanwhile, many may ask: Should we yield to the position of strength of a country or uphold the principles of the UN Charter? Is the international order defined by individual countries safeguarded by all? Is modernization the privilege of a few countries or the legitimate rights of all? To build a global community of shared future is to address such universal and fundamental questions. We need to make it clear that all countries, big or small, are equal members of the international community and should bear their due responsibilities and enjoy equal rights. Human society should be a global community of shared future featuring peaceful coexistence, equity and justice, and win-win cooperation.

Building a global community of shared future has become the unwavering overall goal of China's major-country diplomacy. This important vision has been well reflected in the country's major-country diplomacy, including the GDI, the GSI, the GCI, and the BRI. All indicate that China is willing to strengthen solidarity and cooperation with other countries, especially developing countries, and work together with them to contribute more to human progress and modernization. We believe that guided by the vision of building a global community of shared future — like a banner that leads a bright future — China will have an increasing number of friends and partners and contribute a lot more to the world. Thank you.
