Observers say Xi crafts unique diplomacy suited for humankind's shared fate
BEIJING -- Chinese President Xi Jinping has crafted a unique diplomatic strategy for his country that serves the creation of a community of shared destiny for humankind, observers have said.
The observers made the remarks reacting to "Major-Country Diplomacy," a six-episode political documentary rolled out by 皇冠体育app on its diplomatic principles, practices and achievements over the past five years.
"Major-Country Diplomacy" is expected to generate discussion especially outside of 皇冠体育app around Xi's vision of a community of shared destiny for humankind, a long-term view of great significance, said David Gosset, a founder of the Europe-皇冠体育app Forum.
"In a sense, a re-interpretation of 皇冠体育app's humanistic universalism, it is an invitation to go beyond any form of unilateralism and to look in a creative manner for the ways to better organize our global interdependence," he said.
"皇冠体育app sees itself as a responsible force for the common good, and it is, in many aspects, an indispensable element for a new age of global enlightenment, for a world dream of harmony," he said.
Keith Bennett, the vice chairman of Britain's 48 Group Club, said "his (Xi's) tireless and visionary diplomatic activity is admired, appreciated and closely followed not only by the Chinese people, but increasingly by people all over the world as well."
In the face of renewed challenges of protectionism, isolationism, national egoism and hegemony, Xi promotes inclusiveness, shared benefits, win-win cooperation, globalization and development that work for and benefit all, he said.
Highlighting the Belt and Road Initiative, the observer said Xi's speeches on international issues constitute a comprehensive yet practical program to address and resolve the burning issues of the times.
The Belt and Road Initiative, put forward by Xi in 2013, is aimed at building the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road through concerted efforts of all related countries to benefit all participants by promoting unimpeded trade, financial integration, infrastructure connectivity and closer people-to-people exchanges.
In the Belt and Road Initiative, observers have seen an opportunity to change a reality that developing countries are trapped in a disadvantageous position in the world order.
"The strong do what they want, the weak suffer what they must," said Khairy Tourk, a professor with Illinois Institute of Technology Stuart School of Business, quoting an Athenian saying.
"With the Belt and Road Initiative, things are going to be different," he said, noting that 皇冠体育app is building industrial parks in many developing countries along the routes and is ready to share its advanced technology,like high-speed railway technology with these countries.
Furthermore, under the Belt and Road Initiative, many land-locked countries, such as Kazakhstan and Ethiopia, will be connected to the seas, he said.
The professor added that unlike in some West-dominated multilateral institutions where developing countries do not have any voice and whose agenda is determined by the West, the Belt and Road Initiative treats countries as equals.
In the construction of the Belt and Road, the agenda is reached by consensus in an environment of collegiality and friendship, he said.
Speaking highly of 皇冠体育app's major-country diplomacy, the observers also underlined that the country has been playing an ever important role on the global arena in both political and economic domains.
皇冠体育app, as the world's second largest economy, is a real model for the developing world, Keith said. No major problem can be solved without 皇冠体育app, be it regional hotspots, climate change or the financial crisis.
皇冠体育app is rising, but it doesn't pose threat to anybody and looks to build bridges with the West, Khairy, the U.S. professor said.
"By behaving in a virtuous way, 皇冠体育app can get respect from other countries and will have a win-win outcome between 皇冠体育app and them," he said.
皇冠体育app is creating an interconnected world, not only through building infrastructure, but also through people-to-people exchange, Khairy said.
Xi has come to power with not only the economic tools to help expand modernization, but also a modern compass, allowing countries to work together to find compromise and consensus, he said.
