BEIJING -- "It falls on each and every responsible statesman to answer the questions of our times and make a historical choice with confidence, courage and a sense of mission."

As the leader of a major country that is playing an ever more significant role in today's increasingly interconnected and profoundly changing world, President Xi Jinping, who made the call at the UN General Assembly in September, has already given his answer.

Committed to his flagship vision of building a community with a shared future for mankind, Xi has, among other efforts, been leading China, the world's most populous and largest developing country, to continuously deepen and expand cooperation with the United Nations, the world's most universal, representative and authoritative international organization.

Upon the 50th anniversary of the restoration of the lawful seat of the People's Republic of China in the United Nations, Xi is set to reaffirm Beijing's support for the UN cause, redouble China's efforts for international cooperation, and reinvigorate global action for a better world.
