Phoenix Satellite Television:
At the end of April this year, the U.S. government launched the Declaration for the Future of the Internet. Today, the Chinese government issued the white paper titled "Jointly Build a Community of Shared Future in Cyberspace." What's the relationship between the proposal of the Chinese government and the declaration by the U.S. government? What are the differences? Thank you.
Cao Shuming:
Thank you for your question. This question has attracted much attention from the public. Ms. Qi Xiaoxia, director general of the International Cooperation Bureau of the Cyberspace Administration of China, will answer this question.
Qi Xiaoxia:
I'm happy to answer the reporter's question from Phoenix Satellite Television. It should be said that the white paper is fundamentally different from the so-called Declaration for the Future of the Internet. As you mentioned, a certain country launched the so-called "Declaration for the Future of the Internet" in April, trying to impose its own standards on others, drawing ideological lines in cyberspace, forming an exclusive clique to instigate division and confrontation, and violating international rules. These acts have seriously broken the solidarity of the big family of the internet and severely affected the stable development of the global internet.
As you can see, the white paper put forward "China's proposals on creating an even stronger community with a shared future in cyberspace." What we advocate is openness, cooperation, inclusiveness, and mutual learning, and what we uphold is that cyberspace is the shared home of all of humanity and the future of cyberspace should be decided by all countries in the world, rather than by one single country or several countries.
In international cyberspace governance, we champion leveraging the role of the United Nations as the main channel. We also advocate that the international community should commit itself to extensive consultation, joint construction and shared benefits, strengthen cooperation, and jointly formulate international rules in cyberspace.
We are willing to deepen cooperation with other countries in the world, jointly promote the reform and development of the global internet governance system, and work together to build a stronger community with a shared future in cyberspace. Thank you!
