Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Michelle Bachelet, candidate for the next United Nations (UN) secretary-general and former Chilean president, in Beijing on Thursday.

During her meeting with Wang Yi at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, Bachelet shared her views on global developments and the role of the UN.

She stressed that today's world is increasingly uncertain, and would benefit from more multilateralism.

Bachelet said the UN must be reformed to return to its original mission, uphold the authority of the UN Charter, and advance the three pillars of the United Nations -- peace and security, development, and human rights.

She also reiterated her firm adherence to the one-China principle, praised China's long-term commitment to multilateralism, and expressed readiness to work with China to strengthen the UN's role.

Wang Yi, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said Bachelet's remarks reflect her deep understanding of the role of the UN, and emphasized that China has always been a staunch supporter of the UN.

He also noted that the Security Council meeting in New York last month gave rise to a consensus that the role of the UN should be strengthened in response to the turbulent and changing international landscape.

He said that China is willing to work with all parties to safeguard and strengthen the United Nations.

Wang said the selection of the next UN secretary-general concerns the UN reforms over the next five to 10 years, and concerns the vital interests of the Global South. China will take part in the selection of the next UN secretary-general in a responsible and constructive manner, and will work to promote the United Nations to revitalize its authority and vitality, so that the organization will better adapt to the new circumstances and better cope with new challenges.
