Reference News Network, November 28 report: An article by former Egyptian Prime Minister Essam Sharaf was published on the website of "Al-Ahram Today" on November 12, titled "China's Modernization and the Community with a Shared Future for Mankind." The following is the translation:
China's modernization and the vision of building a community with a shared future for mankind provide a unique model that balances domestic development and global cooperation.
China aims to achieve national prosperity through modernization. This model encompasses comprehensive and in-depth reforms, high-quality development, and high-standard opening-up. At the same time, China is also committed to achieving common prosperity worldwide through the grand vision of building a community with a shared future for mankind.
High-quality development is one of the pillars of China's modernization. It means achieving comprehensive and sustainable economic growth based on innovation, green technology, and high value-added industries.
In order to build a community with a shared future for mankind, China has proposed a number of global initiatives. We yearn for prosperity, and prosperity cannot be separated from development, development cannot be separated from peace, peace cannot be separated from trust and understanding, and understanding cannot be separated from cooperation platforms. This is the philosophy upon which China's initiatives are based.
The Belt and Road Initiative is built on two core principles: connectivity and partnership, creating a platform for international cooperation.
Hard connectivity in connectivity includes infrastructure construction such as power and transportation; soft connectivity involves exchanges and dialogue between different civilizations and cultures.
Partnership is based on joint planning, joint implementation, and shared benefits, and is not subject to political interference.
China is a strong, civilized, and peaceful country. While striving for domestic development, it actively strengthens cooperation with countries around the world, jointly promoting global development and building a community with a shared future for mankind.
Building a community with a shared future for mankind does not mean imposing a single cultural or civilizational model on the world, but rather respecting the diversity of civilizations and cultures.
The world has many nations, languages, and customs. Understanding and dialogue between civilizations are the foundation for harmonious coexistence among different civilizations.
Major challenges facing the world, such as poverty, climate change, and health crises, cannot be overcome through arms races, but can only be addressed by promoting sustainable development and common prosperity.
Transforming security concerns into cooperative projects and partnerships is the only way to build a safer, more equal, and just world for humanity.
When we uphold the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind, all concerns related to security and war will be transformed into cooperation to address major challenges facing the world.
China's modernization has been promoted through China's global initiatives. Achieving global prosperity requires countries to work together, promoting peace, development, and cooperation.
Civilizations that face challenges with a positive attitude, adaptability, and a spirit of innovation will continue to progress, while those that fail to do so will stagnate.
The concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind is a profound response to current global challenges.
We face two choices: either continue down the path of hostility, division, and chaos, or work together to move toward safety and peace, building a better world.
Ultimately, only through cooperation can we overcome difficulties and build a community with a shared future for mankind. (Translation by Wu Tianyu)
