Xi Jinping pointed out that in the past year, the sudden outbreak of new crown pneumonia has ravaged the world, global public health is facing serious threats, the world economy has fallen into a deep recession, and mankind has experienced multiple crises rarely seen in history. Now, the epidemic is far from over, and the fight against it is still going on, but we firmly believe that the cold winter cannot stop the pace of spring, and the night cannot block the dawn. Mankind will surely be able to overcome the epidemic, grow and progress in the struggle against the disaster, and be reborn from the ashes.

Xi Jinping stressed that we should solve the four major issues facing this era:

First, strengthen macroeconomic policy coordination and jointly promote strong, sustainable, balanced and inclusive growth of the world economy. We should not only grasp the present, coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic development, strengthen macroeconomic policy support, and push the world economy out of the shadow of the crisis as soon as possible, but also look to the future and be determined to promote the transformation of the world economy's power, mode transformation and structural adjustment, so that the world economy can embark on the track of long-term healthy and stable development.

Second, abandon ideological prejudices and jointly follow the path of peaceful coexistence and mutual benefit. The history, culture and social system of each country have their own merits, and there is no distinction between high and low. The key lies in whether it is in line with its own national conditions, whether it can win the support and support of the people, whether it can bring political stability, social progress, and improvement of people's livelihood, and whether it can contribute to the cause of human progress. Without diversity, there is no human civilization. The difference is not terrible. What is terrible is arrogance, prejudice, and hatred. What is terrible is wanting to divide human civilization into three or six or nine grades. What is terrible is imposing one's own history, culture and social system on others. All countries should achieve peaceful coexistence on the basis of mutual respect and seeking common ground while reserving differences, promote exchanges and mutual learning, and inject impetus into the progress of human civilization.

Third, overcome the development gap between developed and developing countries and jointly promote the development and prosperity of all countries. With the development of developing countries, the world as a whole will have a more solid foundation for prosperity and stability. The international community should implement its commitments, provide necessary support for the development of developing countries, protect their legitimate development rights and interests, promote equal rights, equal opportunities and equal rules, and let people of all countries share development opportunities and fruits.

Fourth, join hands to meet global challenges and jointly build a better future for mankind. A public health emergency similar to the neo-coronary pneumonia epidemic will never be the last, and global public health governance needs to be strengthened urgently. Greater efforts to address climate change and promote sustainable development have a bearing on the future and future of mankind. All global problems facing mankind require global action, global response and global cooperation.

Xi Jinping pointed out that the problems in the world are complicated, and the way to solve them is to maintain and practice multilateralism and promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.

-- We must adhere to openness and inclusiveness and not engage in isolation and exclusivity. The essence of multilateralism is that international affairs are jointly discussed by all, and the future and destiny of the world are jointly controlled by all countries. In the international arena, "small circles" and "new cold war" are carried out to exclude, threaten and intimidate others. They are always engaged in decoupling, cutting off confessions and imposing sanctions. They are artificially isolated or even isolated from each other, which can only push the world towards division and even confrontation. A divided world cannot meet the common challenges facing humanity, and confrontation will lead humanity to a dead end. We should adhere to the common values of peace, development, fairness, justice, democracy and freedom, jointly safeguard world peace and stability, and build an open world economy.

-- It is necessary to adhere to the international law as the basis and not to be self-respecting. The international community should be governed in accordance with the rules and consensus reached by all countries, and not by one or a few countries. The Charter of the United Nations is recognized as the basic norm of state-to-state relations. It is necessary to maintain the international system with the United Nations at its core, the international order based on international law, and the authority and effectiveness of multilateral institutions. We must insist on coordinating and regulating the relations between countries through systems and rules, oppose bullying, and not practice unilateralism in the name of multilateralism. Once the rules are established, everyone must follow them effectively. "Selective multilateralism" should not be our choice.

-- We must adhere to consultation and cooperation and refrain from conflict and confrontation. Whether it is a cold war, a hot war, a trade war, or a science and technology war, it will ultimately harm the interests of all countries and sacrifice the well-being of the people. Respect and tolerate differences, do not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, and resolve differences through consultation and dialogue. We should abandon the cold war mentality and the old concept of zero-sum game, adhere to mutual respect and mutual understanding, and abide by the concept of mutual benefit and win-win cooperation. We should reject the narrow policy of selfishness, advocate fair and just competition, and carry out track and field competitions in which you catch up with each other and improve together, instead of engaging in gladiatorial competitions in which we attack each other and fight each other.

-- We should keep pace with the times and not be complacent. Multilateralism in the 21st century must be upright, new and future-oriented. It must not only adhere to the core values and basic principles of multilateralism, but also be based on changes in the world structure, focus on the needs of responding to global challenges, and reform and improve on the basis of extensive consultation and consensus. Global governance system. Give full play to the role of the World Health Organization and build a human health community. It is necessary to promote the reform of the World Trade Organization and the international financial and monetary system, explore the formulation of global digital governance rules, implement the Paris Agreement on climate change, and implement the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Xi Jinping stressed that China has embarked on a new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. We will base ourselves on the new development stage, implement the new development concept, actively build a new development pattern, and work with other countries to build a world of lasting peace, universal security, common prosperity, openness, inclusiveness, cleanliness and beauty.

-- China will continue to actively participate in international anti-epidemic cooperation. Share useful experience in epidemic prevention and control with other countries, and provide assistance to countries and regions with weak capacity to respond to the epidemic within their capabilities. Strengthen vaccine cooperation so that vaccines can truly become public goods that people of all countries can use and afford.

-China will continue to implement a mutually beneficial and win-win opening-up strategy. It is not in the interests of any party to use the epidemic to "de-globalize" and engage in closure and decoupling. China has always supported economic globalization and firmly implemented the basic national policy of opening up to the outside world. Promote trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, maintain the smoothness and stability of the global industrial chain and supply chain, promote high-quality joint construction of the "Belt and Road", continue to create a market-oriented, rule of law, and international business environment, and give full play to the advantages of super-large markets and the potential of domestic demand, To inject more impetus into the recovery and growth of the world economy.

-China will continue to promote sustainable development. We will strengthen the construction of ecological civilization and ensure that carbon dioxide emissions peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060. As long as it is beneficial to all mankind, China is duty-bound to do it well and practice multilateralism with practical actions.

-- China will continue to promote scientific and technological innovation. Increase investment in science and technology and strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights. Scientific and technological achievements should benefit all mankind, and should not become a means to restrict and curb the development of other countries. China will promote international scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation with a more open mind and measures, and join hands with other countries to create an open, fair, just and non-discriminatory environment for scientific and technological development.

-- China will continue to promote the building of a new type of international relations. It is not the Chinese philosophy of life that you lose and I win, and the winner takes all. China firmly pursues an independent foreign policy of peace, actively develops friendly and cooperative relations with other countries, continuously deepens South-South cooperation, participates more actively in global economic governance, and promotes economic globalization towards a more open, inclusive, inclusive, balanced and win-win situation.

Xi Jinping finally stressed that mankind has only one earth, and mankind has only one common future. Whether it is to deal with the current crisis or to create a better future, mankind needs to help each other, unite and cooperate. Practice has repeatedly proved that any beggar-thy-neighbor approach, any idea of fighting alone, any arrogance of self-admiration, will eventually fail! Let us join hands, let the torch of multilateralism illuminate the way forward for mankind, and make continuous progress towards building a community with a shared future for mankind!
