Asked at a press encounter on China's proposal to help the Security Council better carry out its mission, Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said the council remains at the core of the international collective security mechanism and bears the primary responsibility for maintaining international peace and security through more than 80 years of changes and challenges. At the same time, it has to be admitted that in recent years, on major hot-spot issues, the Security Council has at times been absent. So in order to reinvigorate the UN, it needs to first reinvigorate the Security Council, Wang told reporters after he presided over a high-level meeting of the Security Council on upholding the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and strengthening the UN-centered international system. "First, all members of the Security Council need to take maintaining peace as their mission, abide by the UN Charter, uphold justice, and refrain from acting on their own selfish interests or creating bloc confrontation. Second, it is important to enhance the voice of developing countries and small and medium-sized countries through reform, particularly by addressing the historical injustice faced by Africa. Third, it is important to make proposals at the Security Council more objective, fair and inclusive, and the five permanent members of the Security Council in particular should lead by example. Fourth, the international community should work together to reject all kinds of unilateral actions that bypass the Security Council so that unilateral bullying will find no market and will have no legitimacy," said Wang.
