New diplomatic approach is practical and cosmopolitan

An amendment to the constitution of the Communist Party of China incorporating the latest concepts, theories and strategies of the leadership is to be submitted for review to the Party's 19th National Congress, which begins on Wednesday.

Among these developments are its new diplomatic thinking and approach.

Instead of viewing relations as a zero-sum game, the diplomatic ideas and proposals introduced by President Xi Jinping encourage countries to build a community of shared destiny based on win-win cooperation and the pursuit of inclusive and common development.
