Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi called on China and Europe to stick together in a world full of big changes 🌍🤝. Speaking in Ljubljana after meeting Slovenia's Deputy PM and FM Tanja Fajon, he highlighted a long history of friendship and equal partnership between the Chinese mainland and Slovenia.
Wang Yi noted that for over 30 years, the Chinese mainland has kept its foreign policy steady, treating all countries—big or small—with respect. He said time has proved that China and Slovenia are trustworthy friends.
Marking the 80th anniversary of the World Anti-Fascist War victory, he reminded everyone how Chinese people's fight helped stop Japanese aggression in Asia and prevented ties with European fascists ✊. Remembering history, he urged us to cherish peace.
On global issues—like conflicts that pop up from Ukraine to hotspots in Asia—Wang stressed that cooperation beats confrontation. He launched the Global Governance Initiative, aiming to update the UN system so it works better for our fast-changing era. Think of it like upgrading your phone's operating system to handle more apps and users 📱✨.
War solves nothing, and sanctions often make things worse, he said, calling for more dialogue, peace talks, and teamwork to tackle climate change, health crises, and tech risks. For young pros in South Asia and Southeast Asia, it's a reminder that unity and open chats across borders can spark real solutions 🌱💬.
As both sides face the greatest changes in a century, Wang Yi believes that by making the right choices—prioritizing friendship, multilateralism, and equal partnership—the world can build a brighter future together.
