[Breitbart] Chinese communist leader Xi Jinping met United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in Beijing this weekend and reportedly urged the leader to further promote "global governance" to solve the world’s problems.Xi has explicitly expressed a desire to see China become the "keeper of the international order," defining and enforcing international law.
Guterres was in Beijing to meet with Xi and reportedly thanked the Chinese communist government for supporting the U.N.
China’s state-run Global Times newspaper reports that Xi "expressed the need to improve global governance" during the meeting. "Whether it is domestic governance or global governance, we must have people’s sense of fulfillment as the objective and continue to provide confidence and expectations of stability for the people," Xi reportedly said. "We need to keep pushing for and improving global governance to deal with this challenge."
Xi reportedly insisted that China’s international policies, particularly the One Belt, One Road (OBOR) project—a major international infrastructure plan designed to cement Chinese influence in foreign governments—were necessary for “people’s happiness and national rejuvenation, and to seek common ground for the world.”
The head of the nation’s military and only influential political party, who also maintains the largely ceremonial title of “president,” nonetheless claims that Beijing “will never impose our own path, models, and theories on others,” said the president.”
According to the United Nations’ summary of the meeting, Guterres “expressed his appreciation for President Xi’s support to the U.N.’s work and told him that the U.N. continues to count on China’s leadership and commitment.” Guterres also applauded China for its role in the North Korea nuclear crisis. China is North Korea’s largest trading partner, single-handedly holding up the rogue nation’s economy and making it possible for dictator Kim Jong-un to continuously threaten a nuclear strike on the United States, South Korea, and/or Japan.
