🎉 Big history moment! At a grand commemorative meeting marking the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, President Xi Jinping expressed "sincere gratitude" to foreign governments and international friends who supported and assisted the Chinese people in resisting aggression.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun shared this highlight at a Thursday press conference. He told reporters that Xi stressed how, with huge national sacrifice, the Chinese people made major contributions to saving human civilization and safeguarding world peace.
The remarks came in response to a question about U.S. President Donald Trump's comment that the Chinese parade should have recognized America's role in ending the war in the Pacific. Xi's message was clear: global victories need global teamwork. 🤝
For young peacebuilders in South and Southeast Asia, this moment reminds us how international solidarity shapes our world today. Whether you're coding a new app or joining a virtual meetup, let's keep that spirit of cooperation alive! 🌏✨
