  Xi Jinping Speaks with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on the Phone
  President Xi Jinping spoke with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on May 6, 2021 on the phone.
  Xi Jinping emphasized that the world needs genuine multilateralism. All countries should act in accordance with the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, refrain from pursuing unilateralism and hegemony, and should not use multilateralism as a pretext to form cliques or stir up ideological confrontation. China will continue to support the work of the United Nations and that of Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, and uphold genuine multilateralism.
  Xi Jinping stressed that the most important task for the international community remains fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, saying the world should strengthen cooperation and reject political manipulation. China has provided vaccine assistance for more than 80 developing countries and exported vaccines to more than 50 countries. China has decided to offer vaccines to the UN peacekeeping operations and the International Olympic Committee, and will continue to actively support COVAX and make continuous efforts to eliminate the “vaccine divide.”
  Xi Jinping pointed out that this year marks both the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China and the 50th anniversary of the restoration of the People’s Republic of China’s lawful seat in the United Nations, for which China will hold grand commemorative activities.
  Antonio Guterres said that the United Nations highly appreciates China’s firm support for multilateralism and the work of the United Nations, and is thankful to China for its important contributions to the international cooperation in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.

  Congratulating Bach on his re-election as IOC president, Xi Jinping said that under Bach’s leadership, the IOC has pooled the efforts of various parties and scored vigorous development of the Olympic movement. The COVID-19 pandemic has made a major impact on sports events such as the Olympics. China stands ready to continue to coordinate with the IOC and support the holding of the Tokyo Olympics. China is willing to work with the IOC to strengthen vaccine cooperation and jointly build an effective line of protection for athletes participating in the games.   Xi Jinping stressed that China is steadily carrying forward all preparations in order to host the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics on schedule. Xi Jinping extended gratitude to the IOC for its active support and guidance for the preparations of the Beijing games. China is ready to work with the IOC and the international community to ensure that the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics will be a simple, safe, and wonderful Olympic event.
  Bach indicated that the IOC attaches great importance to its sound cooperation with China and is willing to strengthen vaccine cooperation with China. The IOC adheres to the Olympic Charter, opposes politicization of the Olympic Games, and stands ready to continue its close cooperation with China and offer full support for China hosting the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics as scheduled.


  Wang Yi Hosts “China+Central Asia” Foreign Ministers’ Meeting
  State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi hosted the second“China+Central Asia” (C+C5) Foreign Ministers’ Meeting on May 12, 2021 in Xi’an City, Shaanxi Province.
  Wang Yi indicated that since the first C+C5 foreign ministers’ meeting held last July, guided by head of state diplomacy, we have taken multiple measures to resume work and production and further advanced connectivity, injecting constant impetus into coordinated regional development and economic recovery.
  Wang stressed that efforts should be given to firmly explore the new- type regional cooperation path in tune with the trend of the times, and jointly build a belt of mutually beneficial cooperation and development to forge a community with shared future. Wang then proposed a five-point proposal in this regard: first, work together to fight the pandemic and build a global community of health for all; second, make innovations and foster pilot zones along the Silk Road Economic Belt; third, build a grand Eurasian passageway of interconnectivity based on open cooperation; fourth, seek harmony and stability; fifth, strengthen exchanges and mutual learning, and jointly chart a new blueprint for high-quality development.
  Foreign ministers of the five Central Asian countries indicated that their countries are willing to work with China to promote the synergy of the Belt and Road Initiative with their own development strategies, strengthen cooperation in fields such as pandemic response, agriculture, connectivity, ecommerce, digital economy, environmental protection, and people-to-people exchanges, and jointly fight against terrorism, separatism, and extremism as well as transnational crimes.
