Work together to promote the process of world modernization
In his speech at the joint welcoming banquet of American friendship groups, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader stressed: "China is not pursuing an independent modernization, and is willing to work with other countries to realize a world modernization of peaceful development, mutually beneficial cooperation and common prosperity, and promote the building of a community of human destiny!" Modernization is the basic trend of the evolution of world history since modern times, and the vast number of developing countries are making unremitting exploration and pursuit on their own modernization roads. In recent years, the kinetic energy of world economic growth is insufficient, and the factors of instability, uncertainty and unpredictability are increasing, and the modernization process of human society is bumpy and full of hardships. What kind of modernization do we need? To realize the world modernization of peaceful development, mutually beneficial cooperation and common prosperity, this Chinese plan points out the correct direction for the modernization of human society.
Peace and development are the trend of the times and the "greatest common denominator" of the wishes of people of all countries. Historically, the process of modernization originated in western countries, but it was accompanied by war, colonization, plunder and coercion, which brought great suffering to the people in developing countries. Today, the modernization of human society cannot and should not return to the old road full of bloody evils. Without peace, there will be no development, and the existing development achievements will be lost. A peaceful and stable internal and external environment is the fundamental condition and necessary guarantee for any country to realize modernization. History shows us that bullying is not the way for human beings to coexist, and belligerence cannot bring a better world. In the face of complex and intertwined security challenges, we should adhere to the common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security concept, bridge differences through dialogue and resolve disputes through cooperation. Only when all countries cherish, maintain and promote peace, and create a fair, just and shared security pattern with the spirit of unity and win-win thinking, can world modernization keep moving forward on the track of peaceful development.
Since modern times, factors of production such as capital, technology, labor and management have flowed around the world, turning isolated small lakes and rivers into the sea of Wang Yang, and history has become the history of the world. With the development of information technology, the communication between countries and people has deepened, and human beings have increasingly become a community of destiny with both glory and loss. Today in the 21st century, it is impossible for any country to pursue modernization under closed conditions. Openness, accommodation and mutually beneficial cooperation are inevitable choices. At present, some countries are building "small courtyard and high wall", pushing "decoupling and breaking chain", clamoring for "risk removal" in supply chain, and engaging in unilateralism and protectionism, which brings great challenges to world modernization. Man-made obstacles to cooperation block not risks but opportunities. Only by strengthening interconnection, unity and cooperation, mutual benefit and reciprocity, expanding the scope of cooperation and making the cake of cooperation bigger can countries promote their own development and achieve common development, and make the process of world modernization full of surging momentum.
Modernization entrusts people’s yearning for a better life, and people in every country have the right to pursue modernization. The process of world modernization should not make the rich richer and the poor poorer. However, at present, the problems of North-South gap, recovery and differentiation, development fault and technology gap are more prominent, the human development index has dropped for the first time in 30 years, and the international development cause is facing great challenges. Making up the development deficit has become an arduous task for all countries in the world, and taking the road of modernization of building, sharing and winning is the way to solve the problem. To enhance the inclusiveness of modernization achievements, persist in sharing opportunities and creating the future together, we should pay special attention to the special needs of developing countries, safeguard their legitimate development rights and interests, improve their right to speak internationally, focus on solving the problem of insufficient imbalance between countries and within countries, improve the balance, coordination and inclusiveness of development, make each country a participant, contributor and beneficiary of global development, and make the modernization cause with its own characteristics converge into a torrent of the times to promote world prosperity and development and the progress of human civilization.
"I want to stand up and stand up, and I want to reach people." As an ancient civilization and a responsible country, it is China’s consistent pursuit to help the world. With China concept as the guiding direction of world change, China action as a substantial contribution to maintaining peace and security, China’s plan as a conscientious contribution to promoting common development, and China’s wisdom as the driving force to improve global governance, Chinese-style modernization is promoted and expanded in a benign interaction with the world, which also provides opportunities for world peace and development. Realizing the world modernization with peaceful development, mutually beneficial cooperation and common prosperity is China’s expectation, and it is also the wish of every country that diligently explores on the road of modernization. China will unswervingly push forward the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation with Chinese modernization, and join hands with other countries to create a better prospect for world modernization.
