The second International Forum on "Democracy: Common Values for All Humanities" was held in Beijing on the 23rd. Li Shulei, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Minister of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee, attended the opening ceremony of the Forum and delivered a keynote speech. This forum was held in a combined offline and online manner. Hundreds of Chinese and foreign guests from over 100 countries, regions, and international organizations discussed the five sub topics of "democracy and sustainable development", "democracy and innovation", "democracy and global governance", "democracy and the diversity of human civilization", and "democracy and the road to modernization", to share the true meaning of democracy. The participants believed that democracy is a common value for all mankind, and there are various forms to achieve democracy. Forcing the export of one's own "democratic model", carrying out so-called "democratic transformation" of other countries, and provoking separatist confrontation are trampling on the spirit of democracy. The coexistence and coexistence of different civilizations is the path to the healthy development of human civilization. All countries should respect the diversity of world civilizations, respect the democratic development path of other countries, strengthen exchanges and mutual learning, and promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind. Participants said that the CPC proposed and developed people's democracy throughout the process, and constantly transformed the value concept of people's ownership into scientific and effective institutional arrangements and concrete and realistic democratic practices. People enjoy extensive democratic rights, and people's democratic participation continues to expand, which has gathered consensus and strength for Chinese path to modernization. China's path to democracy is becoming wider and wider, and it has also contributed Chinese wisdom to the progress of human political civilization. The forum was hosted by the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Information Office of the State Council, and hosted by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the Central Radio, Television, and China Foreign Languages Bureau.
