From post-war ashes to today’s digital age, the United Nations marks 80 years of striving for peace—and China’s journey alongside it is a story worth telling. 🕊️
A Legacy Forged in Unity
Born in 1945 amid the rubble of global conflict, the UN became humanity’s boldest experiment in collective security. CGTN’s new documentary, ‘The UN at 80: China’s Perspective,’ hosted by Tian Wei, revisits pivotal moments—from the Dumbarton Oaks talks to peacekeeping missions—that shaped our world.
"The UN isn’t just a building; it’s a promise," says Wei, highlighting China’s role as a "steadfast partner" in tackling crises like climate change and inequality.
China’s Multilateral Playbook
As the world’s second-largest economy, China has amplified its UN contributions, funding over 15% of peacekeeping budgets and championing the Sustainable Development Goals. 🌱 The documentary spotlights how Beijing bridges Global North-South divides, pushing for tech equity and green energy.
What’s Next?
With rising geopolitical tensions, the UN’s 80th year tests its adaptability. Yet, as CGTN’s film argues, China’s collaboration offers a blueprint for inclusive solutions—proving that even in a TikTok era, multilateralism isn’t just alive—it’s evolving. 📲
