2015年CRI Review of President Xi's UN Trip

 

In his speech at the UN sustainable development summit, the president elaborated on China's stance on global development. He called for equitable¹, open and all-round development. We know the centerpiece of this year's development summit is the adoption² of the post 2015 sustainable development agenda. So this could be interpreted as the Chinese government's interpretation³ of the way of implementing⁴ the SDGs.

At the South-South Cooperation Roundtable, President Xi said the new era of SSC requires countries to respect each other's development path and better coordinate⁵ their policies. It should bring about more concrete benefits and help to reform the global governance system. Another highlight would be a slew⁶ of measures announced at the roundtable.

China will establish an assistance fund for South-South cooperation, with an initial pledge of 2 billion US dollars in support of developing countries' implementation⁷ of the 2030 development agenda.

China will continue to increase investment in the least developed countries, aiming to increase its total to 12 billion US dollars by 2030.

At the gender⁸ equality summit, president Xi rolled out a four-point proposal. He called on the international community to make women's development part of their social and economic policies and protect women's rights as they are basic human rights. He also said a inclusive society is needed to better protect women's rights and the international community should build a global environment favorable for women's development.

To support women's development worldwide, China will donate 10 million US dollars to UN Women.
