BEIJING, Feb. 24 (Xinhua) -- China is helping steer the international community away from "position-based confrontation" and back toward "problem-solving," thereby rebuilding trust in global governance, said a Xinhua think tank report released on Tuesday.
Seeking common ground while shelving differences is a core tenet of traditional Chinese philosophy and a crystallization of the wisdom of China, said the report titled "Upholding International Justice and Jointly Addressing World Turbulence -- Focusing on China's Solution to Global Governance," released by Xinhua Institute, a think tank affiliated with Xinhua News Agency.
One of the most pressing challenges facing global governance today is the steady erosion of issue-based consensus by ideological divisions and geopolitical rivalry, the report added.
"In advancing the Global Governance Initiative, China has consistently emphasized cooperation as the objective and sought to maximize consensus amid differences. Whether in development, security, climate change, or public health, China advocates respecting the legitimate concerns of all countries, opposes the amplification or absolutization of differences, and promotes the search for solutions acceptable to all parties through dialogue and consultation," said the report.
China underscores that consensus should be grounded in shared interests and shared responsibilities.
"While countries may pursue different development paths, their interests are deeply intertwined. By emphasizing a shared future and shared responsibilities, China works to shift consensus-building from value-based declarations toward action-oriented cooperation, making global governance more responsive to real-world challenges and more operational in practice," the report noted.
