"We should safeguard and expand our common interests, properly address each other's concerns through consultations on an equal footing in the spirit of mutual accommodation, and have more dialogues to increase our mutual understanding and trust," he said.
Disputes should be settled through dialogue and co-operation, and should not resort to the use or threat of force on the slightest provocation, Wu said.
"We should get rid of Cold War thinking and broaden the converging points of our common interests, notwithstanding the differences in social systems and ideologies."
On the one hand, the international community needs to turn its ear more often to developing countries, defend their legitimate rights and interests, and push the world economy towards balanced and steady development and a win-win scenario to the benefit of all, Wu said.
On the other, developing countries need to speed up the improvement of people's livelihoods, to draw on the fruits of world civilizations in light of their own national conditions, and keep building their capacity for self-development, Wu said.
