🌍 Chinese Premier Li Qiang took the stage at the UN General Assembly’s 80th session and delivered a powerful call for fairness, justice, and cooperation in today’s interconnected world.
Li reminded everyone that peace and development are our shared dreams, and solidarity is our strongest superpower. He drew inspiration from the 80th anniversary of the UN’s founding and the victory of World War II’s anti-fascist forces, urging us not to let those hard-won lessons fade away.
Building on President Xi Jinping’s vision of a “community with a shared future for humanity,” Li highlighted four major global initiatives—from development to security and governance—that aim to reshape global cooperation. His message? Sovereign equality, the rule of law, multilateralism, and people-centered action are the real game-changers.
Addressing rising unilateralism and Cold War mindsets, Li challenged nations to ask themselves: “Why ignore atrocities? Why stay silent in the face of bullying? Why let the UN’s founding spirit slip away?” His answer: By joining forces and remembering our common mission, we can create a brighter tomorrow together. 💡
Li pledged that China will continue defending world peace, boosting global development, and promoting cultural exchanges. He closed with a rallying cry: Let’s uphold the UN’s principles, deepen multilateralism, and roll up our sleeves to build a shared future for all. 🤝
