Xi's diplomacy in 2025: Shedding light on a world at crossroads

This year also marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the World Anti-Fascist War and the founding of the United Nations.

On Sept 3, two days after the conclusion of the SCO Tianjin Summit, a massive military parade was held in central Beijing to commemorate the victory. While addressing a reception commemorating the Victory Day, Xi called for firmly upholding international fairness and justice, staying committed to the path of peaceful development, and making unremitting efforts to improving people's well-being at all times.

Today, the question of how to reform the global governance system and advance global peace and development has been asked among nations around the globe.

In September, while delivering video remarks at the UN Climate Summit, Xi announced China's new Nationally Determined Contributions, including a 7 to 10 percent reduction in economy-wide net greenhouse gas emissions from peak levels and increasing the share of non-fossil fuels in total energy consumption to over 30 percent by 2035.
