Beijing pledges help and support for UN

China will support the United Nations in helping developing countries and reforming global governance to give emerging economies a greater voice, President Xi Jinping told a UN official on Monday during the Boao Forum.

"As an active power in safeguarding world peace and promoting common development under the purpose and principles of the UN Charter, China will stick to multilateralism, facilitate talks and make unremitting efforts to properly handle relevant issues through dialogue and negotiations," Xi said when meeting Vuk Jeremic, president of the United Nations General Assembly.

The UN has a great responsibility to maintain peace around the world and still has much work to do to promote peaceful development and advocate win-win cooperation, he added.
