China promotes benefit-sharing world through partnerships worldwide
BEIJING - Ever since its founding 68 years ago, China has been expanding its partnerships worldwide, aiming to safeguard world peace and stability while promoting development.
To that end, China has proposed, over the past five years, the Belt and Road Initiative and the vision of building a community of shared destiny for humankind, which will help establish a just and fair global governance system. China’s diplomacy has born fruits under President Xi Jinping’s leadership and boosted development of countries around the world. On the occasion of the 68th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos extended warm wishes to the Chinese people. “Today our two countries, despite the differences in their size, population, and even in their political systems, are working together closely and in harmony to consolidate peace, prosperity and progress worldwide,” Pavlopoulos said in a televised message. “I wish that they (the Chinese people) will contribute with all their strength not only to China’s prosperity, but also to promoting development, peace and prosperity for all mankind,” he said. Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni said the China-Africa ties are set to grow deeper.
“Chinese don’t come here to tell us what to do. They come, you give your opinion and they give theirs. They will always take yours because they know it is your country,” he said. Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister Hor Namhong said that China’s success and development have made great contribution to the stability and development of economies around the world. “During the past 68 years, China, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China and the Chinese government, has made a lot of achievements in various fields and grown into the second largest economy in the world,” Namhong said. He said the Belt and Road Initiative proposed by China has greatly promoted the development in such fields as infrastructure, cultural exchanges, investment and trade, and helped realize an all-win situation among countries across Asia, Europe and Africa. Speaking on China’s major-country diplomacy in a documentary series, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said “China has established different forms of partnership with 97 countries and international organizations. It is fair to say our circle of friends is getting bigger and bigger.”
