Let's pursue independent diplomacy and realize the great dream

An independent foreign policy directed toward peace exercised by the country, is also adhering to Mao Zedong Thought's fundamental line of independence. We should hold aloft the banner of peace, development, cooperation and win-win outcomes for all, promote exchange and cooperation with other countries, defend world peace and promote common development based on the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence and on the basis of equality and mutual benefits.

China must decide its stance and policies on all international issues according to right or wrong, stand firm for fairness and justice and respect the rights of the people of other countries to independently decide their development paths. We shall never impose our will on other people nor shall we tolerate others imposing their will on us.

China advocates solving international disputes through peaceful means and opposes any form of hegemony and power politics. We don't seek hegemony or engage in military expansion now or in the future. We are determined to defend our sovereignty, security and development interests. No foreign country should expect China to trade its core interests or accept any attempt to jeopardize its sovereignty, security and development interests.
