A Chinese envoy on Tuesday called on countries to uphold sovereign equality and promote a multipolar world in an equal and orderly manner.
“First, we must uphold sovereign equality. Every country should be able to find its own place and play its role in the multipolar system. We must work jointly to promote a multipolar world in an equal and orderly manner,” stated Fu Cong, China’s permanent representative to the United Nations, during the UN Security Council open debate on multilateral cooperation in the interest of a more just, democratic, and sustainable world order.
Fu emphasized the importance of sovereign equality and international cooperation. He highlighted that building “a just, democratic, and sustainable international order is the joint pursuit of humanity.”
He praised the establishment of the United Nations in 1945 as a means to “save succeeding generations from the scourge of war” and uphold the spirit of multilateralism.
The UN Charter, he noted, is “the cornerstone of the modern international order” and embodies the “noble ideal of working towards a just and equitable international order.”
