In a passionate address at the UN Security Council, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi called for a renewed commitment to true multilateralism and a faster push toward a more equitable global governance system. Speaking at a high-level meeting titled 'Practicing Multilateralism,' Wang emphasized the need for collective action as the UN approaches its 80th anniversary in 2025. 🗓️
Four Pillars for Progress
Wang outlined a four-step roadmap to reshape global cooperation:
Sovereign Equality: All nations deserve equal decision-making power, free from external interference. 🕊️
Fairness First: Developing countries—particularly African nations—must have greater representation in institutions like the Security Council. 🌍
Strengthen Solidarity: Replace geopolitical 'small circles' with inclusive dialogue and win-win partnerships. 💬
Action Over Words: Tackle crises like Middle East conflicts and the Ukraine crisis through concrete solutions, not just slogans. 🛠️
China's Global Vision
Wang highlighted China's contributions, including its Global Development Initiative and efforts to uphold UN principles. As a founding UN member, China has joined over 600 international conventions, advocating for peace, security, and open cooperation. 🕊️📜
\"No country can prosper alone in today's interconnected world,\" Wang stated, urging nations to embrace a \"shared future for mankind.\"
With the UN entering a new era, the call is clear: prioritize unity over division, and let history guide a fairer path forward. 🌐✨
