Countries should uphold the vision of comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security, and settle disputes through dialog, resolve differences through consultation, and enhance security through cooperation. Major countries in particular, should lead by example. They should break geopolitical circles by pursuing the greater good, rise above block confrontation and serve as propellers for world solidarity, anchors for international peace.”

“We should build a future of development and prosperity. In today's world, countries are not riding separately in some 190 small boats, but rather we're all in a giant ship on which our shared destiny hinges. Small boats may not survive wind and waves, but a giant ship is strong enough to brave the stormy seas. Countries need to share development opportunities and pursue win-win cooperation. We need to follow a people centered development philosophy and advocate a universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization to deliver the fruits of development.”

“We should build a future of fairness and justice. All countries, regardless of their size and strength, are equal members of the international community. International affairs should be handled through consultation by all countries. We need to build an equal and orderly multipolar world and defend the UN centered international system, the international order based on international law and the basic norms of international relations underpinned by the purposes and principles of the UN Charter. We need to strengthen the authority of international rule of law, reject the law of the jungle, where the strong bully the weak oppose acts of hegemonism such as unilateral sanctions.”
