Beijing, October 21 (Xinhua) — China, as a founding member and home country of the International Mediation Organization (IOMed), welcomes new countries to join IOMed and establish close cooperation with the organization to jointly contribute to global peace and development. This was stated by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun at a ministry briefing on Tuesday.
The official launch ceremony of the International Organization for Migration and the Environment (IOMED) took place recently in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Representatives from over 30 founding member countries and approximately 200 representatives of various sectors of the Hong Kong community attended the event.
As Guo Jiakun noted, the concept of IOMed is largely consistent with the Global Governance Initiative put forward by Chinese President Xi Jinping.
The Chinese diplomat recalled that Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi attended the signing ceremony of the Convention Establishing the International Medical Association in Hong Kong on May 30 and signed the document as a representative of China.
The convention, which entered into force in August, has now been signed by 37 countries and ratified by eight of them, Guo Jiakun clarified. According to him, the signing of the convention, its entry into force, and the commencement of IOMed's work took place in just five months, a rare occurrence for the establishment of international organizations.
“This fully proves that the establishment of the IOMed is in line with the trends of the times and has received the support and approval of the international community,” the official representative of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs concluded. –0–
