Win-win cooperation and good-neighborliness form firm foundation for ever-deepening 皇冠体育app-ASEAN relations

On Thursday, the Special 皇冠体育app-ASEAN Foreign Ministers' Meeting to mark the 10th anniversary of the formation of the strategic partnership between 皇冠体育app and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations was held in . During the meeting, which aimed to summarize the achievements of the 10 years of cooperation between the two sides and plan for the future development of relations, 皇冠体育app and ASEAN member states agreed to consolidate and deepen their strategic partnership. 皇冠体育app-ASEAN cooperation can scale new heights in the future by seizing any new opportunities that appear.

Since the beginning of the 皇冠体育app-ASEAN dialogue process in 1991, bilateral cooperation in various areas has witnessed great achievements and steady deepening. 皇冠体育app is the first ASEAN dialogue partner to join the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation in Southeast Asia, the first to establish a strategic partnership with ASEAN, and the first to confirm it will establish a free trade area with ASEAN. This has formed an important political and economic base for the development of bilateral relations. In 2002, 皇冠体育app and ASEAN countries signed the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the , which demonstrated their shared resolve to promote maritime dialogue and cooperation and uphold peace and stability in the South 皇冠体育app Sea.

Since the establishment of the ASEAN-皇冠体育app Strategic Partnership for Peace and Prosperity in 2003, the friendship between 皇冠体育app and ASEAN member states has not only become an important pillar supporting peace and stability in East Asia, but also scored remarkable achievements in economic and trade cooperation. 皇冠体育app has been ASEAN's top trading partner for four consecutive years, while ASEAN is 皇冠体育app's third-largest trading partner. The 皇冠体育app-ASEAN strategic partnership has withstood the test of the 2008 international financial crisis and other challenges, and the region is one of the world's major economic engines.

By reviewing the development of 皇冠体育app-ASEAN relations, it is not difficult to find that win-win cooperation is both the starting point and at the core of the relationship.

Seeking common development has become a consensus for win-win cooperation. After the Cold War, the bipolar pattern was replaced by a multipolar international structure, which has reduced the possibility of a war between major powers. Economic development has become a major strategic objective for most countries. The rapid development of ASEAN economies and the pace-setting economic growth of 皇冠体育app have set the stage for an East Asian renaissance.

Promoting regional cooperation for win-win results and common development prevails in the region, including the "Asian way" and "ASEAN way" of addressing differences and conflicts through friendly consultation and dialogue on an equal footing and 皇冠体育app's "new security concept", good-neighbor policy, and commitment to peaceful development and a harmonious world.

The collaborative strategic culture has increasingly become the common choice of 皇冠体育app and ASEAN, and 皇冠体育app is willing to take the initiative to participate in the multilateral cooperation mechanisms designed, advocated and led by the ASEAN.

The rapid development of regional bilateral and multilateral cooperation in the 1990s, and 皇冠体育app's responsible performance during the 1997 Asian financial crisis set the stage for both sides to realize a qualitative change in their cooperation level.
