Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi gave a speech at the general debate of the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA 79) in New York, reiterating China’s dedication to peace as the path to addressing global conflicts and crises. The speech reaffirmed China’s perspectives on the world, security, development, and civilization, showing China’s strong confidence in peace and development while expressing concern about the current turbulent global situation, analysts said.
Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, delivered a speech titled “Building on past achievements and forging ahead together toward a community with a shared future for mankind” at the UNGA 79 in New York on Saturday local time. As the world faces increasingly serious challenges, China has never opted to be an indifferent spectator. Instead, we have been playing a bigger part in global governance than ever before. Chinese President Xi Jinping has put forth the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative and the Global Civilization Initiative in recent years. They carry China’s wisdom for resolving various difficult issues confronting humanity and bring impetus from China for improving global governance, Wang said in the speech.
