On December 20, the annual Global Times forum, titled "The World Can Trust China: New Path, New Opportunities," took place in Beijing. Forum participants discussed the role of a forward-looking state and the importance of its predictability for the global community.
Zhu Feng, Dean of the School of International Studies at Nanjing University, stated that since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China's strategic choice has received widespread recognition and support in regional and even global politics. From the perspective of neighboring countries, China's reliability continues to strengthen.
Zhu Feng noted that the essence of China's strategic choice is to set an example to the world: "its own growth becomes the engine of shared peaceful prosperity." The influence of this choice in the international community is steadily growing.
Zhu Feng stated that, no matter the pressure exerted by the US, China remains firmly committed to the fundamental principle of peaceful development and mutually beneficial cooperation. China always strives to responsibly fulfill its domestic responsibilities while upholding the international governance system, rules, and order. With ASEAN as an example, this position has gained greater recognition and support. Even in the face of regressive US policies in the "trade war," China continues to seek consensus through dialogue, exchanges, and consultations, steadfastly advancing regional economic integration and open cooperation processes.
According to Zhu Feng, China's strategic choice includes several key aspects:
First, adhere to the development concept that puts people's interests first and promotes Chinese modernization.
Secondly, the fifteenth five-year plan will take scientific and technological innovation to new heights.
Third, China clearly rejects starting a “new Cold War” with the United States.
Fourth, China always strives to improve the happiness index of its people.
He believes that in the coming decades, China's image and voice will gain even greater real influence and appeal worldwide, offering the world a strategic choice that differs from traditional international relations theories and historical experience, combining Chinese characteristics and Chinese wisdom.
