On June 1, 2022, State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi delivered a video speech entitled "Strengthen Solidarity and Cooperation and Improve Global Governance" to the China-Russia High-level Think Tank Forum.

Wang Yi said that at present, the global pandemic, regional conflicts, major-power rivalry, de-globalization and other complex factors are interwoven, the deficit in peace, security, trust and governance is widening instead of narrowing, global systemic risks are mounting, and the global governance system is facing unprecedented challenges. Grasping the trend of the times and living up to the aspirations of people around the world, President Xi Jinping has put forward the Global Development Initiative and the Global Security Initiative, contributing China's wisdom to eliminating the "four deficits", which have been warmly received by the international community.

Wang Yi said development and security are the common concerns of all countries and the top priority of global governance. President Xi Jinping's two initiatives have their own priorities and reinforce each other. Security is the precondition for development and development is the foundation of security. Only by balancing development and security can we achieve lasting peace and common prosperity. We develop and improve the global governance system through extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits. With the charting and guidance of the two heads of state, China and Russia have constantly deepened comprehensive strategic coordination, setting a fine example for present major-country relations and upholding international fairness and justice. China stands ready to work with Russia to continue to implement the important consensus reached by the two heads of state, promote the outlook on democracy that puts people first and advocates openness and inclusiveness, uphold the outlook on development featuring balance, coordination, universal benefits and win-win results, stay committed to the vision of common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security, and follow the vision on order featuring equality, respect, unity and cooperation, so as to make the global governance system more just and equitable.

Wang Yi stressed that visions set the course, and actions shape the future. The academic circles of China and Russia should be both thinkers and practitioners. I hope experts and scholars from both sides will have in-depth communication and exchanges and contribute their valuable wisdom to the vigorous development of China-Russia relations and make the world enjoy greater peace, security and prosperity.
