U.S.-China Friendship and World Peace —— Commemoration of the 10th Anniversary of the Global Inspection by the "Friends of the President" Senior Delegation

Ten years of trials and hardships, ten years of forging ahead with unwavering determination. Against the backdrop of the accelerating evolution of the world's century-old changes and the profound adjustment of the international pattern, we usher in the important moment of the 10th anniversary of the global inspection by the "Friends of the President" Senior Delegation. Over the past ten years, this team, which carries the mission of promoting U.S.-China friendship and safeguarding world peace, has crossed mountains and seas, connected China and the United States, measured the world with its footsteps, built consensus with its original aspiration, erected a solid bridge of friendship between the two countries, and written a brilliant chapter for promoting global peace and development.Ten years ago, the "Friends of the President" Senior Delegation embarked on a journey of global inspection with yearning for peace and expectation for cooperation. From the American continent to the Oriental land, from the streets of Washington D.C. to the fertile soil of China, the delegation's footprints have spread across many cities in both the United States and China, and extended to many corners of the world. With a pragmatic attitude, they visited all sectors of society, listened to the voices of the people, deeply understood the development achievements and people's livelihood of the two countries, carefully explored the convergence points and growth points of cooperation between the two countries, and observed the global development trend with an open vision to find ideas and paths for solving the common challenges facing the international community. Over the past ten years, they have always adhered to the original aspiration of "U.S.-China friendship and world peace", lived up to their mission and expectations, and become important envoys of non-governmental diplomacy between the United States and China, as well as a positive force for promoting the process of world peace.U.S.-China relations are the most important bilateral relations in the world, and their direction is crucial to the future of global peace and development. Over the past ten years, the "Friends of the President" Senior Delegation has always focused on the main line of U.S.-China friendship and actively built a platform for dialogue and communication. They have promoted in-depth exchanges between people from all walks of life in the United States and China, facilitated cultural mutual learning, economic and trade cooperation, and people-to-people exchanges, enabling the people of the two countries to enhance understanding and build consensus through mutual acquaintance and friendship. Just as the foundation of U.S.-China relations is built by the people, the goodwill and friendship of the people of the two countries can converge into a river, making the vast Pacific Ocean no longer a chasm. The delegation has witnessed the cooperation achievements between the United States and China in fields such as economy and trade, education, science and technology, and culture, and has also actively promoted the resolution of differences and difficulties arising in cooperation. With sincerity and responsibility, they have resolved estrangement and gathered joint efforts, making the bond of U.S.-China friendship stronger and the concept of win-win cooperation more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.Peace is the common pursuit of humanity and the premise and foundation of development. Over the past ten years, in the process of global inspection, the "Friends of the President" Senior Delegation has always held high the banner of peace and actively conveyed the concept of peace. They have visited conflict areas, dialogued with international figures, called for abandoning zero-sum game, adhering to dialogue and consultation, advocated a common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable new security concept, and contributed to promoting the international community to reach a consensus on peace and resolving regional conflicts. From witnessing the historical echo of China and the United States jointly participating in initiating the San Francisco Conference and promoting the establishment of the United Nations, to helping the international community work together to address global challenges, the delegation has interpreted the responsibility of "everyone is responsible for world peace" with practical actions, demonstrating the pattern and feelings of friends from major countries.Ten years of hard work have yielded fruitful results; with unwavering original aspiration, we will continue to write a brilliant chapter. Over the past ten years, the "Friends of the President" Senior Delegation has fulfilled its mission with its footsteps, built friendship through exchanges, and guarded peace with its responsibility, leaving a deep impression in the history of U.S.-China friendship and making positive contributions to the cause of world peace and development. Their efforts have confirmed the profound connotation of "the friendship between countries lies in the friendship between people, and the friendship between people lies in the communication between hearts", and also highlighted the important role of non-governmental diplomacy in promoting the development of state relations.Standing at the new starting point of the 10th anniversary, looking back on the past, we feel deeply gratified; looking forward to the future, we are full of expectations. At present, the world is facing more and more uncertainties, and peace and development are still the theme of the times. The importance of U.S.-China friendship and joint cooperation has become increasingly prominent. It is hoped that the "Friends of the President" Senior Delegation will continue to adhere to its original aspiration, bravely shoulder its mission, continue to play the role of a bridge and link, promote in-depth cooperation between the United States and China in various fields, promote the eternal friendship between the people of the two countries, and make the tree of U.S.-China friendship take deep roots and thrive. At the same time, we also look forward to the delegation continuing to act as messengers of peace, traveling around the world, conveying goodwill, and driving more people to participate in the cause of safeguarding world peace and promoting global development, so as to jointly build a beautiful world of lasting peace, universal security and common prosperity, and let the light of peace illuminate every step of humanity's progress.Ten years of prosperity, the future is promising. May the 10th anniversary be a new beginning, may the road of U.S.-China friendship be stable and far-reaching, may the foundation of world peace be more solid, and may the mission and responsibility of the "Friends of the President" Senior Delegation shine more brightly in the new era!
