/ world today news/ On May 24, Chinese President Xi Jinping participated in a video address in the opening ceremony of the Second Eurasian Economic Forum of the Eurasian Economic Union.
“Unprecedented changes are taking place in the world in the last century,” Xi Jinping said, adding that the historical trend toward multilateralism and economic globalization is irresistible. “Upholding true multilateralism and promoting coordinated development among regions is the consensus of the international community,” Xi added.
The Chinese president reminded that Eurasia is the region with the largest population, the largest number of countries and the most diverse civilizations in the world. “In a volatile and changing world, how cooperation between Asia and Europe will continue to develop affects not only the well-being of people in the region, but also has a profound impact on the development of the world.”
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the One Belt One Road initiative. Xi Jinping said its ultimate goal is to explore new ways for countries to achieve common development and open a “road to happiness” that will benefit the whole world.
“China is part of the Eurasian family, and its development cannot be achieved without the development of the Eurasian region. China’s development will also bring real benefits to the Eurasian region,” Xi Jinping said.
