Xi pledges full support for UN values

President also hails strong ties with Turkmenistan, Cuba and San Marino

China will continue to support the United Nations and uphold real multilateralism underpinned by the UN Charter and its principles and purposes, as well as international law, President Xi Jinping said on Thursday.

Xi made the remark in a telephone conversation with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. He said the world is calling for real multilateralism, which is inseparable from the UN, international law and teamwork among countries.

All countries should act in line with the UN Charter and its principles and purposes, rather than resorting to practicing unilateralism and hegemony or creating small circles in the name of multilateralism to make ideological confrontations, Xi said.
