New york: China’s Global Governance Initiative provides important guidance for the future development of the United Nations, said a Chinese envoy on Friday.
According to Namibia Press Agency, the Global Governance Initiative aligns with the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, aiming to foster closer solidarity and coordination within the international community. This initiative is designed to enable a more robust response to contemporary global challenges, as stated by Fu Cong, China’s permanent representative to the United Nations.
Fu highlighted that over the past eight decades, the United Nations has become the most universal, representative, and authoritative intergovernmental organization, contributing significantly to world peace and development. However, he noted that the ideals outlined in the UN Charter remain unfulfilled 80 years later, with the global governance system under severe strain. His remarks came during an open debate of the Security Council on the future of the United Nations, coinciding with the 80th anniversary of the organization’s founding.
At this pivotal moment, Chinese President Xi Jinping has introduced the Global Governance Initiative, which presents China’s approach to addressing the growing global governance deficit. The initiative aims to advance the establishment of a more just and equitable global governance system. Fu emphasized that the United Nations is at a new historical starting point and expressed China’s readiness to collaborate with all countries to uphold the organization’s ideals. “Let us forge ahead to build a community with a shared future for humanity,” he concluded.
