The Resolution of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the Major Achievements and Historical Experience of the Party over the Past Century was reviewed and adopted at the sixth plenary session of the 19th CPC Central Committee. What is the significance of the resolution and what influence will it exert? Thank you. 

Qu Qingshan:

Thank you, I will take this question. The resolution was reviewed and adopted at an important historical moment when our Party marks its 100th founding anniversary, as well as at a critical historical juncture when our Party has united and led the Chinese people in successfully achieving the first centenary goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, and as we march toward the second centenary goal of building a great modern socialist country in all respects. The resolution, which pools the wisdom of the whole Party, comprehensively and systematically summarizes the major achievements and historical experience of our Party in its 100-year history, with a special focus on historic achievements and transformations in the cause of the Party and the country at large following the 18th CPC National Congress. This fully demonstrates our Party's superb political wisdom and sense of responsibility, and a high degree of historical consciousness and historical confidence.

Our Party is a Marxist governing party that sets great store by and excels at summarizing historical experience. At every important historical moment and major historical juncture, our Party reviews the history, summarizes experience, and draws wisdom and strength from history for future progress. As Mr. Wang mentioned just now, during its century-long history, the Party in 1945 formulated the Resolution on Certain Issues in the History of the CPC, and in 1981 formulated the Resolution on Certain Questions in the History of the CPC Since the Founding of the People's Republic of China — two resolutions that played important roles in advancing and guiding the endeavors of the Party. The resolution adopted at this plenum is the third historical resolution of the Party, and I believe that just like the previous two, it will have important and far-reaching significance in promoting the whole Party to achieve unity in thinking, will and action, in uniting and leading the Chinese people of all ethnic groups to learn from history to create a bright future and work hard while marching forward courageously, and in upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

If I was to give the resolution an overall assessment and positioning, I would put it in three sentences: First, it is a programmatic document of Marxism. Second, it is a political proclamation of the Chinese communists' continued commitment to their original aspiration and mission and upholding and developing of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. Third, it is a guide for learning from history to create a bright future and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. More specifically, I think the resolution is of great significance and has profound and far-reaching social impact, which I will explain in three points.

First, the resolution makes an in-depth summary of the Party's great journey in uniting and leading the Chinese people from one victory to another over the past century, educates and guides the entire Party to have a profound understanding of the tough challenges we overcame for the "red political power," for the PRC and for socialism with Chinese characteristics, and enhances our courage and strength to march forward. On the new journey, we face both rare development opportunities and many severe and complex risks and challenges, which require us to use the Party's major achievements and historical experience to boost morale, chart the course, pool strength and strengthen conviction, uphold and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics with an indomitable spirit and hard work, and strive to secure a new victory in fully building a modern socialist country.

Second, the resolution makes an in-depth summary of the trajectory of the Party's 100 years of growth from its infancy to a large and strong party, educates and guides the entire Party to have a profound understanding of the importance of enhancing the Party's political building, and enhances the awareness of and commitment to upholding the Party's solidarity and unity. On the new journey, in order to realize the second centenary goal, we must continue and carry forward the historical experience of upholding the CPC Central Committee's authority and its centralized, unified leadership, particularly the new experiences since the 18th CPC National Congress; strengthen our consciousness of the need to maintain political integrity, think in big-picture terms, follow the leadership core, and keep in alignment with the central Party leadership; stay confident in the path, theory, system and culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics; and uphold General Secretary Xi Jinping's core position on the Party Central Committee and in the Party as a whole, and uphold the Party Central Committee's authority and its centralized, unified leadership. Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, we will rally the entire Party to create a "piece of unbreakable iron" and march forward in unison.

Third, the resolution makes an in-depth summary of the Party's great practice over the past 100 years in improving itself and advancing self-reform. It educates and guides the entire Party to have a profound understanding of the importance and necessity of exercising full and strict governance over the Party, and ensures that our Party always remains the strong leadership core of the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. On the new journey, the exam is far from being finished, and the Party still has a long way to go. We must draw historical experience from the Party's efforts of strengthening self-development, maintaining its advanced nature and purity, and improving its leadership and governance, keep increasing the Party's capacity to respond to various risks and challenges, maintain its vigor and vitality, and unite and lead the Chinese people of all ethnic groups in making continued efforts to realize the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation. That is all from me. Thank you.
