Be a "stabilizer" of peace instead of a "blower" of conflict (Wanghailou)
When the wind is high and the waves are urgent, it is even more important to align the course.
At present, the world is neither peaceful nor peaceful, with regional security hotspots emerging one after another, and European security issues once again attracting global attention.
How to resolve differences and disputes is a test of human wisdom and foresight.
At the opening ceremony of the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2022, the global security initiative proposed by President Xi Jinping provides a Chinese solution to international security challenges.
This initiative takes "six persistence" as the core essence, which not only has the macro thinking of top-level design, but also has the method and path to solve practical problems.
Among them, "insisting on peacefully resolving differences and disputes between countries through dialogue and consultation" is the only way to effectively maintain world peace and tranquility.
It is inevitable that countries will encounter bumps and bumps in their exchanges. The key is to find a way to properly handle conflicts and differences.
History and reality have repeatedly shown the world that neither war nor sanctions are the fundamental way to resolve disputes. Only dialogue and consultation are the most effective ways to resolve differences.
The world needs a "stabilizer" of peace.
At present, mankind has not yet come out of the haze of the epidemic, the crisis in Ukraine is rising again, and the security challenges facing the world are increasing.
To build a "stabilizer" for peace, it is necessary to strengthen strategic communication between countries, enhance mutual security trust, resolve conflicts, manage and control differences, and eliminate the root causes of crises; An inclusive international and regional security landscape.
Major countries have special and important responsibilities for resolving international and regional hotspot issues. They must uphold fairness, encourage dialogue, persuade peace and promote talks, and mediate in accordance with the needs and aspirations of the countries concerned.
On the Ukraine issue, China, based on the right and wrong, abides by objectivity and fairness, actively promotes peace and talks, and has been highly recognized by the international community, especially the vast number of developing countries.
The international community should unequivocally support all efforts that are conducive to the peaceful resolution of the crisis. All parties should work together to reduce the temperature and put out the fire, maintain stability and persuade peace, and encourage all parties to the conflict to talk and continue the talks, so as to build mutual trust, resolve disputes and promote dialogue through dialogue. Safety.
The world should be wary of the "blowers" of conflict.
As far as the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is concerned, the immediate priority is to avoid escalating tensions.
As the only superpower in the world, the United States should work with the international community to push the situation to cool down rather than heat it up as soon as possible, and to "put out the fire" instead of "in the fire."
However, after the Russia-Ukraine conflict broke out, the United States “handed guns” to Ukraine while imposing extreme sanctions on Russia, forcing other countries to “choose sides”.
This kind of "blower" behavior has always been familiar to the United States.
Over the years, out of the self-interest of safeguarding its hegemonic status, the United States, under the banner of so-called "human rights" and "democracy", has engaged in "small circles" and camp confrontations, arbitrarily interfering in other countries' internal affairs, infringing on other countries' sovereignty, and provoking conflicts and wars. , sometimes "blasting" everywhere, sometimes "igniting" himself.
The world is bitter and beautiful!
Humanity is an indivisible security community.
In today's world, the interests of all countries are intertwined, and in the face of crisis, no one can stay safe.
Only through dialogue and negotiation, and a safe road of co-construction, sharing and win-win, can the fire of peace be passed on from generation to generation, and the bell of peace can be heard in the world.
