Ma Zhaoxu stated that the great victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression marks a historical turning point in the Chinese nation's journey from a grave crisis in modern times to a great rejuvenation. It has a significant and far-reaching influence on the great cause of securing victory in the Anti-Fascist War and striving for world peace by the people of all countries in the world. In the new era, President Xi Jinping, with his broad strategic insight, extraordinary political wisdom and deep commitment to the world as the leader of a major party and a major country, put forward the vision of building a community with a shared future for mankind with remarkable foresight, answering the question raised by the world, by history, and by the times about where humanity should be headed. At this historical juncture, he charted the course for world peace and development, forging a strong consensus for the common progress of humanity.
Ma Zhaoxu emphasized that the vision of building a community with a shared future for mankind inherits and promotes the diplomatic principles, strategic thinking and fine traditions established since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and has continuously developed and grown richer amid the magnificent practice of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics. This vision has developed from a Chinese initiative to an international consensus, from a promising vision to substantive actions, and from a conceptual proposition to a scientific system. It has made a historic leap from bilateral to multilateral levels, from regional to global dimensions, from development to security, and from cooperation to governance, achieving ground-breaking results on every front. China is willing to work in solidarity and move forward hand in hand with all countries in the world, making unremitting efforts toward the great goal of building a community with a shared future for mankind.
Ma Zhaoxu also answered questions from Chinese and foreign media on head-of-state diplomacy, global security, global development, exchanges among civilizations, the role of the United Nations, relations among major countries, neighborhood diplomacy and the Global South.
