After an official ceremony, Liu told reporters China will continue to firmly support the UN, uphold the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, and play the role of a responsible major country in world affairs.

Liu said that being the most universal, representative and authoritative international organization, the UN bears the expectations of the people all over the world and shoulders a significant mission. Noting the world today is undergoing profound and complex changes, the new envoy said it requires joint efforts from all nations to achieve peace, development, and win-win cooperation.

He said as a permanent member of the UN Security Council and a major developing country, China has consistently advocated multilateralism and attached great importance to the role of the United Nations.
