tensions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>The white paper was unveiled at a rare news conference led by Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, alongside senior officials from the country\u2019s state planner and the ruling Communist Party, in a display of cross-agency coordination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>At the press conference, Wang Yi said the world was facing mounting challenges that required renewed commitment to multilateralism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>&#8220;Global governance is like a boat sailing against strong currents and it risks going backward if not

Observers told CNA it reflected China\u2019s effort to consolidate them under a cohesive banner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Beijing\u2019s white paper presents what\u00a0China\u00a0describes as its solution for building a more just and equitable international system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>While it references major global flashpoints such as the war in Ukraine and hostilities in the Middle East, many of its criticisms are framed broadly rather than directed at specific countries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>It also contains several veiled criticisms of the United States, referring to some countries that have instigated trade and technology wars, as well as a \u201ccertain major power\u201d that has withdrawn from international organisations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Instead, Beijing advocates a\u00a0UN-centred and multipolar system of global governance.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"social-media\">\n<div>\n<article>\n<div>\n<div class=\"video-embed-field-provider-youtube video-embed-field-responsive-video\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"text-long\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Wang Yi said on Wednesday: \u201cThe law of the jungle is resurfacing, not because the UN Charter is outdated, but exactly because the charter has not been effectively observed and safeguarded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>\u201cFacing emerging global challenges, the pressing priority now is to fulfil the UN Charter&#8217;s obligations, uphold sovereign equality, observe the international rule of law, oppose power politics and bullying acts.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>The white paper also calls for countries to de-escalate ongoing conflicts, with Wang Yi making a brief reference to the war on Iran.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>\u201cWhat is needed now is for all parties to work toward the same direction, commit firmly to a ceasefire, in order to lay the foundation for a sustainable security architecture in the Middle East,\u201d he noted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>On Wednesday, US President Donald Trump and Iran\u2019s president <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.channelnewsasia.com\/world\/iran-us-trump-signed-deal-end-war-6191621\"><span>signed a deal meant to end the war<\/span><\/a><span>, with Tehran agreeing to dilute its enriched uranium in return for large-scale economic relief.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span>GLOBAL SOUTH\u2019S GROWING ROLE<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Another key theme of Beijing\u2019s white paper is the growing role of the Global South, which refers to various countries around the world that are sometimes described as \u201cdeveloping\u201d, \u201cless developed\u201d or \u201cunderdeveloped\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Many of these nations are in the Southern Hemisphere, largely in Africa, Asia and Latin America.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Wang Yi called for reforms to international financial institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank to increase the representation of developing countries in global affairs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>While the white paper does not explicitly state China\u2019s ambitions, observers said the push reflects Beijing\u2019s desire to play a greater leadership role among developing nations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Miao Deyu said: \u201cChina believes the collective rise of the Global South is unstoppable. The days when a handful of countries could dominate international affairs are over and long-standing historical injustices should be addressed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>The white paper
