At the SCO Plus Meeting in Tianjin, east China, on Monday, the Chinese president Xi Jinping urged Shanghai Cooperation Organization members to play by a single set of global rules. He rolled out his Global Governance Initiative, calling for everyone to follow the Charter of the United Nations and other universally recognized norms in international relations.
Here’s the gist:
- Equal application: International laws and rules should apply the same way for all countries ⚖️
- No double standards: No country should get a free pass while others face stricter rules 🚫
- Reject house rules: Individual nations shouldn’t impose their own 'playbook' on the rest of the team 🏠📜
Imagine a big game where each team follows different rules—it just wouldn’t make sense! Xi’s message is clear: if we want a fair and predictable world, everyone needs to respect the same rulebook.
With his Global Governance Initiative, Xi Jinping is pushing for a more balanced global stage where cooperation, trust, and consistent standards drive progress. 🌍✨
