hisham abu bakr metwally, chief economist of the egyptian ministry of industry and foreign trade, wrote in china daily on september 5 that the recently held 2024 forum on china-africa cooperation summit demonstrated china's commitment to promoting world peace and development.
china's diplomacy has achieved fruitful results
the article points out that there are many conflicts and crises in the world today, and there is even a threat of a world war. the multipolar world order has not yet been fully formed. against this background, as a major participant in international relations, china's foreign policy is particularly important. in recent years, china has put forward important initiatives such as the "belt and road" initiative, the global development initiative, and the global security initiative, calling for solving the challenges facing the world through dialogue.
china will implement the foreign relations law of the people's republic of china on july 1, 2023, which clarifies the general principles and objectives of china's development of foreign relations. it is worth mentioning that the foreign relations law of the people's republic of china mentions "peace" 11 times and emphasizes "development" 40 times. article 1 of the general principles of the foreign relations law of the people's republic of china emphasizes the promotion of building a community with a shared future for mankind, demonstrating china's determination to promote world peace and development.
the fundamental difference between china's foreign policy and that of some countries lies in two points: first, it adheres to the path of peaceful development, does not launch wars, does not invade other countries, and does not plunder other countries' wealth; second, it adheres to equality, mutual benefit, mutual respect, and does not interfere in other countries' internal affairs. the foreign relations law of the people's republic of china clearly stipulates that china adheres to the path of peaceful development, adheres to the basic national policy of opening up, and pursues a mutually beneficial and win-win opening-up strategy.
china is committed to addressing global challenges through diplomatic actions. china has long realized that if it relies on developed countries to solve problems, the ukrainian crisis, the israeli-palestinian conflict, etc. will last for a long time, which will not only affect china's trade and investment, but also threaten world peace and stability. in addition, china continues to deepen cooperation with many countries in the world and contribute to restoring peace in the middle east and other regions. since the united states invaded iraq in march 2003, the region has been ravaged by war for many years.
china's diplomatic efforts have yielded fruitful results. in march last year, china facilitated reconciliation between iran and saudi arabia, and the two countries restored diplomatic relations after a seven-year hiatus. in july this year, under china's promotion, various palestinian factions signed the beijing declaration on ending division and strengthening palestinian national unity.
what the united states does is hindering world development
the article further stated that china proposed the "belt and road" initiative 11 years ago, proving with practical actions that countries can work together to promote global trade and investment. the "belt and road" initiative promotes mutually beneficial cooperation, but the united states has been trying every means to sabotage it.
in addition, the us’s financial policies and unlimited money printing are causing global inflation, which is putting enormous pressure on countries around the world, especially the “global south”. at the same time, the us’s actions are also hindering infrastructure construction in developing countries.
in short, it is crucial that china responds to global challenges through diplomatic actions, which not only benefits itself but also the world. on this basis, we will move towards the lofty goal of building a community with a shared future for mankind.
