Under the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on diplomacy, China has developed a distinctive approach to foreign relations befitting its global role, known as China's major-country diplomacy.

This book examines the innovative diplomatic concepts, visions, and initiatives that the Chinese government has proposed to achieve these goals, such as building a new model of international relations and a community with a shared future for mankind, developing a global network of partnerships, reforming the global governance system, the principleof upholding justice while pursuing interests, and the Belt and Road Initiative.
