A Community with a Shared Future for Mankind, a Bright Path for Humanity

Promoting Win-win Cooperation

The concept is not hollow diplomatic language, but a program of action and a guideline for China in actively promoting major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics in a new era.

China’s aspiration to promote the community with a shared future is sincere. In the new era, China continues to uphold the theme of the times of peace and development and advocate peace, development, and win-win cooperation. It does so through solid and concrete actions and practices to promote and lead the building of a community with a shared future for mankind, and will continue to contribute to lasting peace and stability of the world, common development and prosperity, and exchanges and mutual understanding of civilizations.

In the process of building a community with a shared future for mankind with all countries and peoples in the world, China has always been a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, and a vindicator of international order. As a permanent member of the UN Security Council and a major country that is playing an increasingly important role in international affairs, China upholds the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, and is the backbone of world peace and stability. As the largest developing country in the world, China has broadened the path for developing countries to modernization through its continuous development of socialist theory, system, and culture with Chinese characteristics. China’s wisdom and solutions have offered brand new choices for countries and peoples in the world who hope to accelerate their development and also wish to maintain their independence. 

China welcomes all countries in the world, especially developing countries, to aboard the express train of China’s development, and actively promotes international cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative to build a new type of global platform for international cooperation. China promised to increase assistance to other developing countries, especially the least developed ones, to narrow the North-South development gap. China’s advocacy of building a new type of international relations and continuous and steady promotion of the practice of building socialism with Chinese characteristics have become theoretical and practical support for China and other countries and peoples in building a community with a shared future for mankind.

President Xi pointed out at the CPC in Dialogue with World Political Parties High-Level Meeting that the concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind has gained increasing support and approval worldwide. It is being transformed from ideas into actions. In the process of building this community, China will actively lead the trend of the times and the progress of human civilization and make significant new contributions to world peace and development, which will further enhance China’s international influence and charisma.

With great progress made in building a community with a shared future for mankind, a prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced, harmonious, and beautiful China will emerge in a beautiful world that has enduring peace, universal security, common prosperity, openness, and inclusiveness.
