Bovet believes, "Overall, from From central to local, the Chinese government has indeed taken many effective epidemic prevention and control measures to prevent the spread of the epidemic in China in a timely manner. Many brave Chinese medical workers risk their lives, and the dedication to treat patients in Wuhan is extraordinary. ,admirable."

  "The efficiency of epidemic prevention and control in China is very high!" George I. Malener, chairman of the China Working Group of the Argentine Commission on International Relations and director of the Graduate School of Contemporary Chinese Studies at the Catholic University of Argentina, has been closely monitoring the epidemic prevention and control in China.

  "In the process of fighting the epidemic, the Chinese government insists on the supremacy of the people and the supremacy of life. This is the right choice." Zemir Awan, deputy director of the Chinese Studies Center of the National University of Science and Technology in Islamabad, Pakistan, said that new coronary pneumonia is a very contagious Strong epidemics, there is no precedent for outbreaks, and there is no medical treatment plan to follow. China has spent a lot of time researching and understanding the new coronavirus and formulating effective policies to fight the virus. China has adopted very strict epidemic prevention and control measures and mobilized all possible resources to win this battle. Although this has caused great losses to China's economy, it has saved many people's lives.

  "Providing medical assistance to all continents"

  "China has provided medical supplies to all continents." Malena said that after the outbreak in Argentina, the Chinese government actively shared the prevention and control experience and treatment of the new coronavirus with Argentina. Subsequently, China shipped three batches of medical supplies weighing more than 15 tons to Argentina to support Argentina's war epidemic. China and Argentina share a philosophy: life is paramount. In the face of the epidemic, Chinese President Xi Jinping said, "People are supreme, life is supreme"; President of Argentina Alberto Fernandez said, "I choose to take care of the economy or life, I choose to take care of life."

  "China and Pakistan are'hardcore brothers.'" Awan said that after the outbreak, China and Pakistan carried out very close cooperation in the fight against the epidemic. The Chinese government not only provided a large amount of medical aid materials to Pakistan, but also sent two medical expert groups to Pakistan, and held video conferences to share the experience of anti-epidemic.

  "China has been doing very well in international cooperation in the fight against epidemics." Bovet said, "The spread of the epidemic worldwide has led to the interruption of the medical equipment supply chain. China can quickly provide personal protective equipment to the world. This is amazing! Chinese doctors are treating the new crown Pneumonia has accumulated rich experience. Doctors from all over the world can learn from the diagnosis and treatment plans formulated by China, better understand the stage of development of the disease and adopt appropriate treatment methods."

On May 24, at the video conference of the Third Session of the 13th National People's Congress, State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi answered questions from Chinese and foreign reporters on issues related to "China's foreign policy and foreign relations." Among them, related topics on the "Belt and Road" attracted Awan's attention.

  "During the epidemic, many infrastructure and livelihood projects of the "Belt and Road" have played an important role in the fight against the epidemic." What makes Awan most excited is that China will work with relevant countries to promote the healthy Silk Road. Construction. Awan said that the Healthy Silk Road will be a key platform for international public health cooperation in the future. Under the "Belt and Road" initiative, China will play an important role in the healthy Silk Road.

  "From an overall and long-term perspective, after the test of the epidemic, the foundation for the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" will be stronger, the momentum will be more abundant, and the prospect will be broader." Awan said that Pakistan welcomes the Healthy Silk Road and is eagerly looking forward to the Opportunity to participate.

  Malena believes that the new coronary pneumonia epidemic is not the last global challenge facing mankind. To avoid crises, mankind should draw lessons from this epidemic, and in the future it should use the world’s interconnection to share information and knowledge in order to respond to global challenges in the fields of health, environment, climate, food, and education. After this epidemic test, China can play a greater role in global governance in the future.
