On the morning of October 11th, President Xi Jinping collectively met with foreign guests attending the China International Friendship Conference and the 70th anniversary commemoration of the establishment of the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
Xi Jinping first took a group photo with some foreign guests and representatives who came to China to attend the China International Friendship Conference and the 70th anniversary commemoration of the establishment of the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, expressing high appreciation for the long-term commitment of international friends to the cause of friendship with China.
Xi Jinping pointed out that people's friendship is the foundation for stable and far-reaching international relations, and an inexhaustible driving force for promoting world peace and development. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China 75 years ago, the CPC has united and led the Chinese people to embark on a road of modernization that not only develops itself but also benefits the world. Looking back on the past, China's achievements in all aspects cannot be separated from the support of people from all over the world. A large number of international friends share weal and woe with the Chinese people through ups and downs. Many foreign enterprises, institutions and individuals actively participate in China's socialist modernization drive, not only realizing mutual benefit and win-win results for all parties, but also making important contributions to promoting friendly exchanges and cooperation between China and foreign countries. We will always remember your important contributions to China and your sincere friendship with the Chinese people.
  Under a century of change, the world is bound by common weal and woe, and the common destiny of mankind. Building a community with a shared future for mankind is the future of people all over the world. China is willing to strengthen friendly exchanges with friends from all countries, leverage the unique role of people to people diplomacy, and work together to build a community with a shared future for mankind.
One is to unite and promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind with the spirit of "working together as one". Promote the common values of peace, development, fairness, justice, democracy, and freedom for all mankind, advocate for an equal and orderly world multipolarity, inclusive economic globalization, and build our shared planet into a peaceful, harmonious, and harmonious family.
The second is to gather strong forces to promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind with the concept of win-win cooperation. China does not pursue modernization alone, and welcomes more foreign friends to actively participate in the process of Chinese path to modernization. China is willing to continue to use the new achievements of Chinese path to modernization to provide new opportunities for world development, promote the realization of peaceful development, mutually beneficial cooperation, and common prosperity of the world's modernization, and better benefit the people of all countries.
The third is to draw a civilized picture of promoting the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind with an open and inclusive mindset. The Chinese nation is an open and inclusive nation, and the Chinese people are kind and friendly people. China is willing to work with all parties to implement the Global Civilization Initiative, enhance understanding and deepen friendship through sincere communication, and transcend cultural barriers and conflicts through cultural exchanges and mutual learning.
Xi Jinping emphasized that the Communist Party of China is a party that serves the people, the Chinese government is the government of the people, and China's diplomacy is the diplomacy of the people. The Chinese government will, as always, support the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries to play a unique role in developing friendship between Chinese and foreign people and promoting international practical cooperation. With friendship as a bridge and heart to heart friendship, the Chinese government will continue to deepen Chinese and foreign people to people friendship, unite friends from all countries, and work together as a practitioner of the common destiny of mankind, a participant in Chinese path to modernization, a promoter of mutual learning and people to people friendship, and a successor to the cause of people friendship.
