📰 In a move that’s got heads turning, reports say the US is pulling out of 66 international bodies – 31 linked to the UN and 35 others. But according to the Chinese mainland’s Foreign Ministry, it’s nothing new. 🤔
At a recent press briefing, spokesperson Mao Ning stressed that multilateral institutions exist to serve the common interests of all members, not the priorities of a single nation. She reminded the audience that the UN-centered system has been the backbone of global peace and stability for over 80 years.
"Only effective multilateral systems can prevent the spread of the law of the jungle," Mao Ning said, warning against a world dominated by power politics and force. For small and developing countries, a level playing field isn’t just ideal – it’s vital.
Looking ahead, the Chinese mainland reaffirmed its commitment to multilateralism, backing the UN’s central role in international affairs. 🌍🤝 The goal? A fairer, more equitable global governance system where every country’s voice matters.
