Deep dives
Mutual Respect and Peaceful Coexistence
China and the United States should view each other as partners rather than adversaries. Mutual respect and peaceful coexistence should be the fundamental principles guiding the relationship between the two countries. China respects the unique history, culture, and system of the United States, just as it expects the United States to respect China's path of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Both countries should avoid viewing each other as threats and instead focus on cooperation based on mutual respect.
Seeking Win-Win Cooperation
China and the United States should strive for win-win cooperation. Despite the differences between the two countries, there are ample opportunities for collaboration. China's Belt and Road Initiative, as well as other development initiatives, are open to all countries, including the United States. China is also ready to participate in US-proposed multilateral cooperation initiatives. Both countries can benefit from increased cooperation in areas such as tourism, science and technology, agriculture, military, law enforcement, and artificial intelligence. By fostering healthy economic competition and leveraging the private sector, both countries can address global challenges together.
Working Toward Sustainable Development
China is committed to pursuing sustainable development and balancing economic growth with environmental protection. China aims to achieve harmony between man and nature by adopting eco-friendly practices and reducing carbon emissions. China plans to peak carbon dioxide emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. By promoting clean energy production, new energy vehicles, and forest conservation, China aims to contribute to global efforts in combating climate change.
Peaceful Development and Global Cooperation
China is dedicated to peaceful development and building a community with a shared future for mankind. China firmly opposes war, aggression, or expansion and is committed to non-interference in the internal affairs of other nations. Peaceful coexistence, dialogue, and cooperation should be prioritized over confrontation. China upholds the international order based on the United Nations and international law. It seeks global partnerships and mutually beneficial cooperation rather than seeking hegemony or imposing its will on others. China aims to work with all countries to achieve global modernization, common prosperity, and a peaceful and stable international environment.
