摘要

International solidarity is a fundamental value up- held by the United Nations as well as a principle of international law recognized by independent experts on human rights. The values and principle of international solidarity have played an important role in promoting human rights, improving the international economic or- der, driving sustainable development, and tackling global challenges, and they have gained wide support from most developing countries. As unilateralism and protectionism continue to spread, global gov- ernance and multilateral cooperation are under threat. Against this background, the United Nations calls for the spirit and principle of in- ternational solidarity and the promotion of solidarity rights, including the right to development, and encourages the countries to safeguard global public health through joint actions and to avoid discrimination. The concept of a community with a shared future for human beings proposed by China embodies international cooperation, mutual learn- ing and exchanges, and collective efforts to promote and safeguard human rights. It has made a positive contribution to enriching and boosting the principle of international solidarity and demonstrated the wisdom and responsibility of China as a major country.
