  ——We must jointly protect human life and health.

It will take arduous efforts for mankind to completely defeat the new crown pneumonia epidemic.

Countries should support each other, strengthen coordination of epidemic prevention measures, improve global public health governance, and form a strong international force to deal with the epidemic.

It is necessary to adhere to the attributes of vaccines as global public goods to ensure the accessibility and affordability of vaccines in developing countries.

China has provided more than 2.1 billion doses of vaccines to more than 120 countries and international organizations, and will continue to provide 600 million doses and 150 million doses of vaccines to Africa and ASEAN respectively, making active efforts to bridge the "immunization gap".

  - We must jointly address the challenges of global governance.

All countries in the world are riding on a big ship with a shared destiny. If they want to cross the stormy seas and sail towards a bright future, they must work together in the same boat. It is unacceptable to try to throw anyone into the sea.

Today, the international community has developed into a complex, delicate and organic machine. Dismantling one component will cause serious difficulties in the operation of the entire machine. The person who is dismantled will be damaged, and the person who will be dismantled will also be damaged.

It is necessary to practice the global governance concept of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits, carry forward the common values ​​of all mankind, and advocate exchanges and mutual learning among different civilizations.

It is necessary to uphold genuine multilateralism and firmly uphold the international system with the United Nations at its core and the international order based on international law.

  First, firmly uphold peace in Asia.

Today, the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence and the "Bandung Spirit" initiated by Asia are even more realistic.

We must uphold the principles of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, and peaceful coexistence, pursue the policy of good-neighborliness and friendship, and firmly control our destiny in our own hands.

  Second, actively promote Asian cooperation.

The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement came into effect, and the China-Laos railway was completed and opened to traffic, effectively improving the level of regional hard and soft connectivity.

We should take this opportunity to promote the formation of a larger and more open market in Asia, and promote win-win cooperation in Asia to take new steps.

  Third, jointly promote Asian unity.

It is necessary to consolidate ASEAN's central position in the regional structure and maintain a regional order that takes into account the demands of all parties and accommodates the interests of all parties.

All countries, big or small, strong or weak, within and outside the region, should add luster to Asia without causing chaos. They should all walk the road of peaceful development, seek win-win cooperation, and create a united and progressive Asian family.

It will provide strong momentum for the stabilization and recovery of the world economy and provide broader market opportunities for all countries.

China will fully implement the new development concept, accelerate the construction of a new development pattern, and strive to promote high-quality development.

No matter what changes take place in the world, China's confidence and will in reform and opening up will not be shaken.

China will unswervingly adhere to the path of peaceful development, and will always be a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, and a defender of the international order.

  Xi Jinping finally said that if you walk every day, you are not afraid of thousands of miles; if you do it often, you are not afraid of thousands of things.

As long as we work together and work tirelessly, we will be able to gather together the great power of win-win cooperation, overcome various challenges on the way forward, and usher in a brighter and better future for mankind.
