China’s top UN envoy Fu Cong made a bold push for international teamwork during a Security Council debate, spotlighting the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) as a key player in tackling global security threats. 🔑 \"We must practice true multilateralism,\" Fu stressed, framing the SCO’s \"Shanghai Spirit\" of partnership and openness as a blueprint for fairer global governance.
🌍 Amid rising geopolitical tensions, Fu called out Cold War-style divisions and urged stronger UN-SCO collaboration on counter-terrorism, drug control, and economic development. The SCO’s 2025 Year of Sustainable Development was highlighted as a milestone for advancing climate action and poverty reduction goals.
💡 Notable priorities include:
- Backing Afghanistan’s stability through joint UN-SCO programs
- Boosting regional anti-terror strategies and law enforcement training
- Expanding trade networks and green infrastructure projects
With China currently chairing the SCO, Fu reaffirmed commitments to bridge global divides and build a \"community with a shared future.\" The upcoming Summit of the Future could be a major stage for these efforts. 🚀
