The head of the Chinese foreign affairs department announced that the Chinese side advocates for the promotion of dialogue between civilizations in four aspects.
First, as Van I pointed out, it is necessarily important to firmly adhere to mutual respect and contribute to the harmonious coexistence of different civilizations. One should uphold a civilizational concept based on equality, mutual learning, dialogue, and inclusiveness.

It is important to promote mutual understanding and rapprochement of peoples from different countries so that the results of exchanges and mutual learning between civilizations bring broader and more direct benefits to people.
China is ready to jointly strengthen intercivilizational dialogue with all countries, deepen exchanges of experience in the sphere of public administration, resolve complex issues of ecology and hand in hand expand the path of global modernization, Wang Yi indicated.
In the third part, the Chinese diplomat called for firmly adhering to continuity and renewal, strengthening the driving force of civilizational progress. He assured that China would help all countries in implementing creative transformation and innovative development, as well as improving traditional cultures.
The head of China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology also called for the full disclosure of the potential of technologies such as artificial intelligence and social networks, so that they serve the exchange and mutual learning between civilizations, continuity and renewal of civilizations, contributing to the common prosperity of human civilization.
In the fourth, Van I added an indisputable firm commitment to exchanges and mutual learning, improving the mechanisms of intercivilizational dialogue.
The Chinese side supports the further effective use of such platforms as the UN Alliance of Civilizations, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), and the Forum of Ancient Civilizations, so that they play an important role in inter-civilizational dialogue, emphasized the head of the MFA of China.
