CPC carries on mission to promote progress of humanity
As some countries work to create division and confrontation in the world to maintain hegemony for their own interests, China, led by the Communist Party of China, is trying to steer the course of the giant ship of humanity toward peace and development.
With promoting human progress being part of its founding mission, the century-old CPC is leading China in working with countries around the world to address the challenges today’s world is facing by implementing the Global Development Initiative and the Global Security Initiative, both proposed by Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee.
Friday marks the 101st anniversary of the founding of the CPC. As the world’s largest ruling political party, the CPC has been growing as it pursues its mission to promote human progress while working to seek happiness for the Chinese people and realize national rejuvenation.
By the end of 2021, the Party had around 96.71 million members, up over 3.43 million from the previous year, according to statistics released on Wednesday by the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee.
Wang Qiaorong, a researcher at the Institute of Contemporary China Studies at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that over the past century, the CPC has been committed to upholding world peace and promoting common development.
With a global vision, the CPC has paid great attention to human destiny over the past century, kept abreast of the trend of human development, adapted itself to changes in the international landscape and properly dealt with its relations with the rest of the world by coordinating the development of the domestic and international situations, Wang said.
Pursuing peaceful development and promoting fairness, justice and win-win cooperation to advance the building of a community with a shared future for mankind are underlying principles of the CPC’s international strategy, Wang added.
The CPC has made it clear that the strength of a powerful political party or a powerful country lies in its open mind, broad vision and great sense of responsibility, rather than its size and muscle. It also advocates that peace, cooperation, dialogue and openness, rather than war, hegemony, confrontation and seclusion, represent the correct and the only path to a better future for humanity.
