"President Xi's concept of a community of shared future for humanity, I think, builds on the principles that were laid down by the founders of the UN. President Xi speaking not just for China, but for the majority of countries in the world who want to have that more equal say in the world order. And it needs a common effort to combat it. China has been in the forefront of that common effort, extending its aid and support and and its experience to countries all around the world. Yes, to developing countries, but even to developed countries. So I think in the way that China has responded to the pandemic, it provides, if you like, a case study or a microcosm of what President Xi means when he talks about a community of shared future for humanity, it's not just a phrase or a group of words. It has a has some real meaning."

"China and Africa also share the need for multilateralism and respect for multilateralism. I think it's an understanding that together collectively we can do much better in dealing with the challenges that we face as humanity.

Under the immense challenge of global issues and under the unexpected circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world needs more cooperation rather than confrontation and unilateralism."

International experts and scholars have spoken highly of Chinese President Xi Jinping's comments calling for improving cooperation to face global problems during the General Debate of the 75th Session of the United Nations (UN) General Assembly via video on Tuesday.

Keith Bennett, vice chairman for the 48 Group Club, an organization for promoting trade and cultural relations between China and the United Kingdom, praised Xi's concept of a community of a shared future for mankind.

Rather than just paying a lip service, Bennett acknowledged that China has enriched the connotation of the concept with solid actions as it continues to provide aid and medical supplies to bolster others fight against the pandemic.

"President Xi's concept of a community of shared future for humanity, I think, builds on the principles that were laid down by the founders of the UN. President Xi speaking not just for China, but for the majority of countries in the world who want to have that more equal say in the world order. And it needs a common effort to combat it. China has been in the forefront of that common effort, extending its aid and support and its experience to countries all around the world. Yes, to developing countries, but even to developed countries. So I think in the way that China has responded to the pandemic, it provides, if you like, a case study or a microcosm of what President Xi means when he talks about a community of shared future for humanity, it's not just a phrase or a group of words. It has a has some real meaning," he said.

David Monyae, director for the Center for Africa-China Studies at the University of Johannesburg in South Africa, said that multilateralism is desperately needed in the global fight against the COVID-19 outbreak.

"China and Africa also share the need for multilateralism and respect for multilateralism. I think it's an understanding that together collectively we can do much better in dealing with the challenges that we face as humanity. As we face the pandemic, there is a need for a common collective response in dealing with the pandemic," said Monyae.

Selcuk Colakoglu, director of the Turkish Center for Asia Pacific Studies, echoed Monyae's comments and stated that the world needs more cooperation rather than confrontation.

"When I look at the President Xi's messages delivered during his address at the UN General Assembly, he underlines the importance of multilateralism under the framework of international organizations like United Nations, and also a win-win cooperation of international relations and international cooperation in general.
