Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun

外交部发言人郭嘉昆主持1月21日例行记者会。会上有外媒记者提问称：昨天中方宣布已收到美方的加入"和平委员会"的邀请,美国总统特朗普1月20日在一场白宫记者发布会上表示,联合国应继续存在,但是他刚宣布成立的所谓"和平委员会"可能会取而代之,中方对此有何评论？是否会加入所谓的"和平委员会"？

On January 21, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun presided over a regular press briefing. A foreign media reporter asked: China announced yesterday that it has received the US' invitation to join "Board of Peace." US President Donald Trump stated at a White House press conference on January 20 that the UN should continue to exist, but the so-called "Board of Peace" he just announced might replace it. What is China's comment on this? Will China join the so-called "Board of Peace" ?

郭嘉昆对此表示,关于"和平委员会",中方昨天已经就相关问题作了回答。关于联合国,中国始终践行真正的多边主义,无论国际形势如何变化,中国都坚定维护以联合国为核心的国际体系,以国际法为基础的国际秩序,以联合国宪章宗旨和原则为基础的国际关系基本准则。

Guo Jiakun said in response that regarding the "Board of Peace," the Chinese side has already addressed relevant questions yesterday. As for the UN, China has always practiced true multilateralism. No matter how the international situation changes, China firmly upholds the UN-centered international system, the international order based on international law, and the basic norms of international relations underpinned by the purposes and principles of the UN Charter.
