On October 27, 2025, Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister Wang Yi attended the 23rd Lanting Forum and delivered remarks titled "Implementing the Global Governance Initiative for a Community with a Shared Future for Humanity".
Wang Yi stated that regional cooperation mechanisms and specialized platforms are flourishing as a vital new force in global governance. China will soon assume the rotating presidency of APEC 2026. China looks forward to working with all sides to advance the building of an Asia-Pacific community and a Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific, paving the way for greater development in the region. The BRICS cooperation mechanism, with its growing representation, has become the most important platform for solidarity and cooperation of emerging markets and developing countries. China firmly supports the high-quality development of greater BRICS cooperation, with fairness, justice, openness and inclusiveness as its guiding principles in advancing global governance reform. Embracing the Shanghai Spirit, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) is increasingly becoming a strong driving force in global governance development and reform. China supports the SCO in expanding cooperation with the U.N. and other multilateral mechanisms to jointly improve global and regional governance.
Wang Yi said that a few days ago, the International Organization for Mediation (IOMed) was inaugurated in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China. It is the world's first intergovernmental legal organization dedicated to resolving international disputes through mediation, and represents a new type of global public good provided by China together with the founding members. China welcomes more countries to join the IOMed and seek to resolve differences, promote reconciliation and safeguard peace on this platform.
