On September 9, President Xi Jinping will attend the 13th BRICS Summit in Beijing via video. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the concept of the BRICS countries and the 15th anniversary of the establishment of the BRICS foreign ministers meeting mechanism. In the context of the intertwining of the epidemic in the century and the changes in the past century, the BRICS countries uphold the BRICS spirit of openness, inclusiveness, cooperation and win-win, continue to deepen the BRICS partnership, and jointly polish the “golden sign” of the BRICS, and promote global unity. The responsibility of the BRICS is to provide BRICS wisdom to solve the governance deficit and contribute to the common challenges. It is of special significance.
The BRICS countries are an important force in advancing global unity to fight the epidemic and protect human life and health. China and Russia help each other and work together, carry out extensive cooperation in epidemic prevention and control, diagnosis and treatment plans, testing reagents, vaccines and drug development and production, and work together to fight the “political virus.” China continues to firmly support Brazil in fighting the epidemic through material assistance, procurement assistance, information sharing, and vaccine cooperation. China actively provides anti-epidemic materials to South Africa, and has held numerous anti-epidemic experience exchanges with all walks of life in South Africa. To help India fight the epidemic, China has exported a large number of ventilators, oxygen generators, medical materials and medicines to India. China established the BRICS Vaccine R&D Center in China to provide assistance in bridging the vaccine gap. China has also co-hosted the 2021 BRICS Traditional Medicine Seminar with India, advising countries to further utilize the unique advantages and role of traditional medicine in epidemic prevention and control. Facts have shown that the BRICS countries actively promote anti-epidemic cooperation, which not only plays an important role in protecting the lives and health of the people of the BRICS countries, but also plays a leading role in strengthening global anti-epidemic cooperation.
The BRICS countries are an important force in safeguarding true multilateralism and safeguarding international fairness and justice. Multilateralism constitutes an important cornerstone of the current international system. In the face of multilateral and unilateral, fair and hegemonic disputes, the BRICS, as representatives of emerging markets and developing countries, firmly defend the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, and safeguard the international system with the UN as the core and the international order based on international law. , Has more prominent practical significance, and also meets the expectations of the international community, especially the developing countries, for the BRICS. In June this year, the “Joint Statement of the BRICS Countries on Strengthening and Reforming the Multilateral System” reaffirmed their commitment to multilateralism and emphasized the establishment of a community of shared future for mankind on the basis of mutually beneficial cooperation. Here comes the significance of BRICS cooperation.
The BRICS countries are an important force to help the world economy recover and promote common global development. The world economy is recovering with difficulty, and the uneven development has become increasingly prominent. The BRICS countries are also facing a more complex development environment. The BRICS countries need to strengthen macroeconomic policy coordination, implement the “BRICS Economic Partnership Strategy 2025”, strive to enhance the level of trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, and accelerate the realization of the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. Focusing on the long-term development in the post-epidemic era, BRICS countries especially need to make good use of the new business models and models spawned by the epidemic to strengthen cooperation in scientific and technological innovation. At the twelfth meeting of BRICS leaders, President Xi Jinping announced that China will establish an innovation base for the BRICS New Industrial Revolution Partnership in Xiamen City, Fujian Province. The base has been officially inaugurated, and will promote cooperation among the BRICS countries in the fields of digitalization, industrialization, and innovation, and jointly achieve higher-quality and more resilient development. Since the beginning of this year, the BRICS Women’s Innovation Competition has been successfully held. The BRICS Aerospace Agency has signed a remote sensing satellite data sharing cooperation agreement. The New Development Bank of the BRICS welcomes three new member states. The practical cooperation between the BRICS countries is constantly advancing. The field of cooperation is constantly expanding, and the influence of the cooperation mechanism is constantly increasing.
Looking back 4 years ago, the Xiamen meeting of BRICS leaders opened the second “Golden Decade” of BRICS cooperation. In the past four years, China has taken solid actions to help improve the BRICS cooperation mechanism, consolidate the “three-wheel drive” structure of economic, trade, financial, political security, and people-to-people exchanges, and promote BRICS cooperation to demonstrate its forge ahead in the adversity of the epidemic. “We are all on the same boat. When the wind is high and the waves are urgent, we must keep the right direction, master the rhythm, unite and cooperate, ride the wind and waves, travel steadily and far, and sail for a better tomorrow.” Looking ahead, China will continue to improve BRICS cooperation contributes wisdom and strength to inject more stability and positive energy into a world full of uncertainty.
