Xi urges making solidarity, cooperation defining features of times

Global partnership, solidarity and cooperation, and mutual benefit for win-win outcomes should be made defining features of the times, Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Tuesday.

Xi made the statement in a meeting in Beijing with the heads of major international economic organizations who are in the Chinese capital city for the "1+10" Dialogue hosted by Premier Li Qiang a day earlier.

Humanity is a community with a shared future where all people rise and fall together, Xi said at the meeting.

"I'm glad to meet you here in Beijing at the end of the year. I have stressed on many occasions that humanity is a community with a shared future where all people rise and fall together, and we should see each other's development as an opportunity rather than a challenge, and take each other as partners rather than adversaries. Let's work together to make global partnership, solidarity and cooperation, and mutual benefit for win-win outcomes the defining features of the times," he said.

The heads of the 10 international economic organizations attending the "1+10" Dialogue include President of the New Development Bank Dilma Rousseff, President of the World Bank Group Ajay Banga, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund Kristalina Georgieva, Director-General of the World Trade Organization Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Secretary-General of UN Conference on Trade and Development Rebeca Grynspan, Director-General of the International Labor Organization Gilbert Houngbo, Secretary-General of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Mathias Cormann, General Manager of the Bank for International Settlements Agustin Carstens, Chair of the Financial Stability Board Klaas Knot, and President of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank Jin Liqun.

Noting that next year marks the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries and the China-Vietnam Year of People-to-People Exchanges, Han said the two sides should follow the important consensus reached by the top leaders of the two parties and two countries, maintain strategic communication, expand practical cooperation, consolidate the foundation of public opinion, strengthen multilateral coordination and promote the building of a China-Vietnam community with a shared future, bringing more benefits to the two peoples.

Bui Thanh Son said that developing long-term friendly relations with China is the consistent proposition, objective requirement, strategic choice and top priority of Vietnam's diplomacy.

Vietnam firmly adheres to the one-China policy and is willing to strengthen high-level exchanges, consolidate political mutual trust, deepen pragmatic cooperation with China, and jointly promote the building of a Vietnam-China community with a shared future with strategic significance, he added.
