It is a great honor to attend the briefing on the High-Level Conference on Humanity in War and to update the Geneva diplomatic community with the progress, alongside colleagues from Brazil, France, Jordan, Kazakhstan, South Africa, and the ICRC. The Global Initiative to Galvanize Political Commitment to International Humanitarian Law aims to strengthen joint efforts to ensure adherence to and implementation of international humanitarian law. We encourage all parties to join the Initiative and to send high-level representatives to the High-Level Conference on Humanity in War to be held in Jordan on December 7. As one of the 6 co-founding States, China is committed to work with all parties to advance the Initiative toward tangible results, ensure the success of the Conference, and jointly uphold the international rule of law.

As a defender of the international order, a promoter of peace and stability, and a contributor to global governance solutions, China will continue to: 🔵vigorously promote peace talks on hot-spot issues and play a constructive role in advancing political solutions; 🔵support the development of the Global South, and share opportunities and build prosperity together with countries around the world; 🔵provide financial and project assistance to UNHCR to the best of its ability, and inject greater certainty and positive energy into global refugee governance.

In my statement at the 77th Session of UNHCR Executive Committee, I proposed that in response to the pressing challenges in global refugee governance, we shall: 🔵practice multilateralism and uphold the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities; 🔵advocate a people-centered approach and strive to find lasting solutions; 🔵stay committed to real results and take good use of new technologies; 🔵uphold the rule of law and safeguard the credibility of the international refugee protection system.

I had the pleasure of welcoming H.E. Ms. Zanariah Zainal Abidin, Permanent Representative of Malaysia, to our mission following her assumption of office. China and Malaysia are good neighbors, good friends, and good partners. China stands ready to work with Malaysia to deliver more tangible cooperation outcomes in Geneva.

I exchanged views with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees @BarhamSalih on future cooperation between China and the UNHCR and global refugee governance. China stands ready to further deepen cooperation with the UNHCR, and to make positive contribution to the global refugee governance through concrete actions.

🇨🇳Happy 77th Birthday, #China! We will follow an independent foreign policy of peace, advance the implementation of the four Global Initiatives, and promote the building of a community with a shared future for humanity, with a view to contributing greater certainty and positive energy to a turbulent world.

I had a fruitful discussion with Kate Forbes, President of @ifrc. The Chinese government attaches great importance to the international humanitarian cause and upholds the vision of building a community with a shared future for humanity. China stands ready to strengthen cooperation with the IFRC to translate our partnership into more tangible outcomes of cooperation.

Pleased to meet with Teresa Cheng, Secretary-General of the International Organization for Mediation. We exchanged views on IOMed’s development and Geneva’s strengths as a hub for multilateral diplomacy. Look forward to IOMed playing a constructive role in promoting peaceful dispute settlement, mutually beneficial cooperation, and international fairness and justice.

Delighted to celebrate the 77th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China with friends from across Geneva community. This year’s celebration was made more special by the Mid-Autumn Festival, bringing friends together with the theme “Enjoy the Full Moon, United in Multilateralism.” China will continue to work with all partners to uphold the UN-centered international system, advance the Four Global Initiatives, and build a community with a shared future for humanity.

Great to talk with H.E. Ambassador Aashna Wandani Kanhai, the PR of Suriname. China stands ready to maintain close coordination and cooperation with Suriname in multilateral affairs on the Geneva platform, to jointly promote the building of a more just and equitable global governance system, and advance the bilateral strategic cooperative partnership for more progress.

An insightful exchange with Professor Marilyne Andersen, Director General of Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator @GESDAglobal, on the global governance of frontier science and technologies, science diplomacy, and ways to further deepen cooperation.

August 12 marks the International Youth Day, and this year it is themed “Different Contexts, Common Aspirations”. In China, young people are increasingly at the forefront of innovation and progress - from space exploration and AI to public service. We believe that when heard, empowered and given the right opportunity, youth can be a decisive force that shapes our shared future. #YouthDay

Delighted to meet with Ms. Anda Filip, the new SG of @IPUparliament—and the first woman to hold this post in IPU’s 137-year history! She brings unique insights from parliamentary perspective. We had in-depth discussions on deepening our cooperation, promoting peace and development, and advancing the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

For thousands of years, legend has it that a Chinese goddess watched over sailors and fishermen, guiding them safely through the unpredictable, towering waves of the ocean. The Chinese people affectionately call her “Mazu”（妈祖）. At the 2026 World AI Conference, China’s AI-powered meteorological warning system “MAZU” again takes center stage. Its name is inspired by the sea goddess, and also stands for “Multi-hazard”, “Alert”, “Zero-gap” and “Universal”. The initiative builds a global early-warning service network covering multiple types of disasters, sharing China’s practices and technological achievements in early warning with the world. #EarlyWarningForAll #MAZU #WAIC2026
