At the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping called on "the people of all countries to work together to build a community with a shared future for all mankind, to build an open, inclusive, clean, and beautiful world that enjoys lasting peace, universal security, and common prosperity".
It signaled building a community with a shared future for all mankind has now become a fundamental goal of Chinese foreign relations.
Building such a community is both a long-term goal put forward by China and its responsibility as a global power. It represents a significant change in China's relations with the outside world and its international strategic thinking.
