CHINA plans to build healthy relationship with all political parties, and groups of the world, to fulfill the plan of Belt and Road initiative some 10,000 delegates from political parties of the world groups will be invited because the dream has to be realizes, said Jiang Jian, of International Department of Central Committee of the Communist Party at a media briefing here Monday.
He made it clear his country did not wish to impose its will on anyone. It had already established contacts with several political parties of the world, and want to work in unison so that better results could be achieved of a major initiative of President Xi. Lamenting that Western media had been building unnecessary hype that China was a threat to pace. Far from truth. The world knows China’s role as peace-maker, and its endeavours and consistent hard work to ensure a happier future for the people of different countries.
China never posed threat to any country of the world. Its communist party was formed 98 years ago, and the country and now it is in 70th anniversary of its founding. Instead of interfering in the affairs of sovereign countries, it concentrated on improving the life style of its own people, and those of many other country, lifting some 800 million of its people from below poverty line, which mean that during the last 7 years ever since President Xi Ji Ping, took over as secretary general of the party, and as head of State, 137 million souls were alleviated from poverty annually.
China’s per capital income rose from US dollars 40 in 1949 to almost 1000 Dollar in last 40 years, which was far above the performance in the field of European States. China’s moot has always been peace, progress, development, for itself and for others, afflicted with poverty, and struggling to uplift the fate of its masses. Poverty alleviation programme, hopefully will be completed by the end of next year, i.e. 2020, he said.
He said because of its efforts, political parties from some 400 countries had been contacted in 60 countries, with which it had been maintaining good relationship. Jianhua that China never posed threat to world peace in the last 5000 years.
History bears testimony to that. There could not be a single instance of aggression from our side. In fact it helped countries repel aggression in the past( perhaps a reference to Korean war of the 50s, and Vietnam war that went on for more that a decade).
China believed in development and democracy, and treated all countries equally irrespective its size of territory of population. It never occupied any territory, he went on record. He said that it desired that South Asian countries developed and be a source of strength to for world peace. China in fact contributed largest number of troops to peace keeping force under the United Nations in areas of conflict from time to time.
Unfortunately Western countries wanted to sabotage China’s efforts for peaceful world, flourishing economy, and happier future for the people of the world. Many groups were active in destroying its efforts, which indeed was regrettable. China was willing to work with other countries in improving the balance of payment position with them, he concluded.
