Chinese FM’s call for major countries to practice multilateralism at Munich Security Conference draws intl attention; expert says speech reaffirms China’s commitment to global co-op

(Sun Langchen – Global Times) In reforming and improving global governance, multilateralism should always be upheld. The monopolization of global power by a small number of countries is unpopular. We live in a multipolar world and need to practice true multilateralism, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in a keynote speech on Saturday at the Munich Security Conference, calling on major countries to practice multilateralism and lead by example. Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made the remarks while delivering a keynote speech during the “Conversation with China” session at the conference, and further stressed that the priority is to revitalize the United Nations system, and that in reforming and improving global governance, the key lies in the collaboration and cooperation of all countries. – Chinese FM’s call for major countries to practice multilateralism at Munich Security Conference draws intl attention; expert says speech reaffirms China’s commitment to global co-op – Global Times
