What they say

Editor's note: Senior members of non-Communist parties of China were invited to share their insights on the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War at a news conference in Beijing on Friday. Excerpts:

Chen Xingying, vice-chairperson of the Central Committee of the Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang

During the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45), the Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang had not been formally established. However, through the war against Japanese aggression, many predecessors of the RCCK increasingly recognized that the Communist Party of China was the backbone of the war and the leader of national rejuvenation, ultimately choosing to accept the CPC's leadership. The cooperation between non-Communist parties and the CPC during the war provides valuable inspirations: First, unwavering acceptance of the CPC's leadership is essential to ensure the correct path and direction. Second, pure unity forms an indestructible force capable of overcoming all challenges and achieving national rejuvenation.
