MULTILATERALISM
The joint statement says that countries must be allowed to decide
autonomously on their internal affairs while international issues should be
solved through dialogue and consultations on the basis of multilateralism.
The international community should completely renounce the mentality of
confrontation and alliance; there should be no pursuit of monopoly or domination
of world affairs; and countries of the world should not be divided into a
leading camp and a subordinate camp, said the joint statement.
Every country must be assured of the right to choose its own path of
development that fits its national realities, the right to participate in
international affairs as an equal, and the right to development on an equal
footing, it says.
Differences and disputes must be solved through peaceful means rather than
through unilateralism or coercion. There should be no use or threatened use of
force, says the joint statement.
Only on the basis of universally recognized tenents and norms of
international law, and under an impartial and rational world order, can problems
facing mankind be solved, says the document.
All countries should strictly observe the principles of mutual respect for
each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity, mutual non-aggression,
non-interference in each other's internal affairs, equality and mutual benefit,
and peaceful coexistence, it says.
The joint statement believes that the world is undergoing a historic change.
The establishment of a new world order will be a long and complicated process,
it says.
The central task of mankind in the 21st century is to safeguard peace,
stability and security for the whole mankind, and to realize full-scale
coordinated development on the basis of equality, maintenance of sovereignty,
mutual respect, mutual benefit and ensurance of good development prospects for
future generations.
Hu arrived here on Thursday for a state visit. He will also visit Kazakhstan
and Britain, where he will attend the G8 plus five summit.
