Keith Bennett, Vice President of the 48 UK Group Clubs, said in an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency reporters in London that the idea of building a community with a shared future for mankind proposed by China has resonated in many countries because people realize that the future and destiny of countries in the world today are closely linked. Bennett has long been concerned about China's development, and he paid attention to the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind shortly after it was proposed. He found that over the past decade, this concept has won resonance in the international community. "Many countries appreciate and support this concept. This concept is also reflected in China's exchanges with many countries, especially developing countries.". Bennett believes that the reason why the concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind resonates is because people realize that countries must be mindful of the common destiny of humanity, or they will face a "society without a future.". In the face of challenges such as climate change and terrorism, no country can cope alone. He said that the progress made by United Nations Member States on the protection of marine biodiversity on the high seas earlier this month reflected the meaning of this concept. Bennett told reporters that building a community with a shared future for mankind is a "realistic need", but it does not mean it can be easily achieved. It takes time for more people in the international community to understand this concept, and this is a struggle against selfishness and vested interests. There are still some countries in the world playing the "zero sum game" of winner take all. Bennett pointed out that China proposed the concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind, "not only proposing concepts, but also providing clear ideas and detailed suggestions on how to achieve them.". The global development initiative, global security initiative, and global civilization initiative proposed by China are all concrete examples of China's efforts to build a community with a shared future for mankind. Bennett appreciated China's active participation in international peacekeeping operations. He said that when certain countries send military forces, participate in wars, and establish military bases around the world, Chinese soldiers go abroad and maintain peace. China has played an important role in promoting peace. (Liao Xinshe)
