"People of all countries are closely connected, with a shared future. No country can gain from others' difficulties or maintain stability by taking advantage of others' troubles. To pursue a beggar-thy-neighbor policy or just watch from a safe distance when others are in danger will eventually land one in the same trouble faced by others. We need to consider ourselves part of a community with a shared future, and jump out of small circles and the zero-sum game mindset. We should see each other as members of the same big family, pursue win-win cooperation, rise above ideological disputes and not fall into the trap of 'clash of civilizations', and show mutual respect in countries' choices of their own paths and patterns in development. We should make efforts to turn diversity of the world into constant source of inspiration driving human advancement and ensure that human civilizations remain colorful and diversified."

5. SOUNDBITE (Chinese) Xi Jinping, Chinese President:
"Economic globalization is a historical trend. Burying one's head in the sand like an ostrich in the face of economic globalization or trying to fight it with Don Quixote's lance goes against the trend of history. The world will never return to isolation, and no one can sever the ties between countries. Countries should not dodge the challenges of economic globalization and must face up to major issues such as the wealth gap and the development divide."
