This year marks the 30th anniversary of China's sending the first formed "Blue Helmets" to participate in United Nations peacekeeping operations. Wang Wenbin, spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said on the 18th that maintaining the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, promoting world peace and building a community with a shared future for mankind are China's original intention and mission in participating in UN peacekeeping operations. China will continue to practice genuine multilateralism and contribute wisdom and strength to cracking the global peace deficit and addressing global challenges. At the regular press conference on the same day, a reporter asked: It was reported that recently, 700 Chinese troops from the eighth batch of peacekeeping infantry battalions to South Sudan (Juba) and 86 troops from the second batch of peacekeeping helicopter units to Abyei won the United Nations "Medal of Honor for Peace". Can the spokesman give us more information? Wang Wenbin said that China's eighth batch of peacekeeping infantry battalions to South Sudan (Juba) and the second batch of peacekeeping helicopter units to Abyei were deployed to the mission area in December and November last year, respectively. They completed more than 400 missions, which were highly praised by the local people, and fulfilled China's mission of maintaining world peace with practical actions. The United Nations "Medal of Honor for Peace" is the full affirmation of the international community to the Chinese peacekeepers who perform their duties honorably, bravely and efficiently. Wang Wenbin said that this year marks the 30th anniversary of China's sending the first formed "Blue Helmets" to participate in United Nations peacekeeping operations. Over the past 30 years, China has sent more than 50000 peacekeepers to more than 20 countries and regions to participate in nearly 30 United Nations peacekeeping operations. China is a permanent member of the Security Council with the largest number of peacekeepers and the second largest contributor to peacekeeping operations of the United Nations. It is also a key force in United Nations peacekeeping operations. Wang Wenbin said that more and more Chinese peacekeepers have emerged in places where world peace and tranquility need to be safeguarded. Chinese peacekeepers sent hope and warmth to the war-torn people who yearned for security and stability. As the Under Secretary General of the United Nations for Peacekeeping Affairs LaKruwa said, "China has played an important role in United Nations peacekeeping operations and has demonstrated the responsibility of a major country in maintaining world peace". "Maintaining the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter, promoting world peace, and promoting the building of a community of shared future for mankind are China's original intention and mission in participating in United Nations peacekeeping operations Wang Wenbin said.
