Rejuvenation
The Chinese Dream, championed by Xi in late 2012, is to build a moderately prosperous society and realize national rejuvenation. Chinese diplomacy is aimed at creating a more stable and friendly external environment for this to be realized.
Security Concept
President Xi Jinping proposed a new concept of Asian security in 2014. In sharp contrast to the decades-old Post-Cold War security system, the new approach aims to establish a mechanism that stresses common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security to tackle rising challenges facing the region.
At the third Nuclear Security Summit (NSS) in The Hague, Xi first proposed "a rational, coordinated and balanced" nuclear security concept and called for a global nuclear security system featuring fairness and win-win cooperation.
Ten Cooperation Plan
At the Johannesburg Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, Xi announced ten major China-Africa cooperation plans for the next three years, backed by 60 billion U.S. dollars, including interest free loans and preferential policies.
Unprecedented
Russian President Vladimir Putin said that trust between Russia and China had reached an unprecedented level.
The China-Russia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership of Coordination features mutual support on issues concerning core interests such as sovereignty, security and territorial integrity, and close coordination in solving major international and regional issues and propelling large-scale cooperative programs.
V-day
Dozens of heads of state and governments attended China's Victory Day celebrations on Sept. 3, 2015. The event commemorated the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II.
World Order
When addressing the annual high-level general debate of the 70th session of the United Nations General Assembly at the UN headquarters, Xi said China will stick to a path of peaceful development, dedicate itself to defending the existing world order founded on the UN Charter, and continue to support the global body.
Xi-style
President Xi Jinping pointed out that China must develop a distinctive diplomatic approach befitting its role as a major country, so that diplomacy will show salient Chinese features -- style and confidence. China's relations with the outside world have started new chapters. Some foreign media outlets believe that China's diplomatic stance sends a signal -- Xi-style diplomacy has taken shape.
Year
China has launched various people-to-people exchange events with a number of countries, such as the China-U.S. Tourism Year; the China-Russia Media Exchange year; "the Year of Languages" program between China and Germany; and China-India Tourism Year. These colorful events play an important role in enhancing mutual understanding and friendship.
Zero-sum Game, No!
In a signed article run by the state-run newspaper Russian Gazette in 2015, Xi said the bitter lessons drawn from WWII teaches that a "winner-takes-it-all" or zero-sum mindsets contradict coexistence, peace and development. Conditions today are more favorable than ever to achieve peace and development. He called for efforts to build a new type of international relations with win-win cooperation at its core.
