China is working to build a new type of international relations and a bond of common future for humanity. China is committed to taking a development path different from that followed by other traditional large countries, promoting reform and opening up to development, developing a (mutual benefit and win-win, and seeking cooperation is a fundamental policy of China). China cannot achieve development and progress without a peaceful international environment and a stable international system.  China adheres to the path of peaceful development, seeking to conduct friendly cooperation featuring “mutual benefit and win-win based on the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence”. China’s independent and peaceful foreign policy means unswervingly following the path of peaceful development, opposing the Cold War mentality, opposing interference in other countries’ internal affairs, and opposing double standards.  Chinese diplomacy has never sought hegemony, and it will never engage in foreign expansion. China is the only country in the world that wrote in its constitution “commitment to the path of peaceful development”, and actively participates in United Nations peacekeeping operations and international arms control and disarmament operations, and is committed to building a world of lasting peace.

  Pursuing an independent, peaceful foreign policy means (protecting national sovereignty, security, and development interests, and opposing all forms of hegemony and power politics). China firmly defends the leadership of the Communist Party of China and the system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and the Chinese leadership resolutely opposes any behavior calling for “Taiwan independence”, with China categorically rejecting interference in internal affairs from external powers, and China’s diplomacy works steadily to (strengthen international consensus on the China principle  one).  Chinese diplomacy is also steadily implementing the “one country, two systems” policy while advocating for the Hong Kong National Security Law to enter into force. Chinese diplomacy in the new era has exposed all American and Western lies with reality and truth, and the Chinese political leadership has thwarted all political plans of some Western and American powers to “use the Xinjiang region to control China”.  Here, China adhered to the path of developing human rights, while completely not accepting the authoritarian orders of any other powers. The Chinese state also strongly opposed the politicization of human rights issues in China, diplomatically and in international forums.  At the United Nations, nearly 100 countries, including Egypt, expressed their support for China’s just position, and opposed interference in China’s internal affairs under the pretext of human rights, and more than 80 countries expressed their opposition to the “politicization of the issue of the Corona pandemic” (Covid-19).

  In recent years, since the (Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party) held in November 2012, Chinese diplomacy has witnessed great development in light of a turbulent global situation.  Here, China put forward the diplomacy of “building a bond of shared future for mankind,” the Belt and Road Initiative achieved initial achievements, and “major power diplomacy with Chinese characteristics” was comprehensively advanced.  China’s influence in the world has also increased. Facts have proven that China is expanding modernization paths for developing countries and advancing China’s wisdom and project in addressing humanity’s problems. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, held in October 2017, determined that “socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered the new era”, put forward the basic policy of governance, and laid out China’s development plan for the next thirty years. In the report of the (19th National Congress) of the Communist Party of China, Chinese President “Xi Jinping” raised high the banner of “peace, development, cooperation and win-win” and explained the importance of major power diplomacy with Chinese characteristics in advancing new international relations and building a bond of common future for mankind. This reflects the ideas of the Communist Party of China in building the destiny of humanity and its responsibility for achieving world peace and development.

 In 2023, the (major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics) in the Middle East achieved fruitful results, left many wonderful moments, and injected confidence and momentum for peace, reconciliation and harmony in the region.  The Chinese state’s summit diplomacy has achieved new heights.  In 2023, President “Xi Jinping” received leaders from (Iran, Palestine, Algeria, Mauritania, Syria, Kuwait, Egypt), and other Middle Eastern countries in China respectively, to consult on ways of cooperation and make plans for bilateral relations.  Guided by summit diplomacy, the strategic trust between China and the countries of the Middle East is constantly being consolidated, and relations between the two sides are developing comprehensively, rapidly and in-depth, which shows the new features of Chinese diplomacy in the Middle East in the new era, advances the rapprochement between the two sides, and opens broad horizons for these relations. The Middle East region is of great importance in Chinese foreign policy. The Middle East is one of the most important regions in the world to which the Chinese government pays great attention and has close strategic relations, which have emerged in the volume and nature of political, economic, commercial, cultural and technological cooperation between China and the countries of the region.

   The crisis diplomacy pursued by China is one of the most prominent components of Chinese foreign policy, especially towards the Middle East, where China stands as a loyal and loyal friend, and provides all support and assistance in various crises of all kinds, which leaves a good impact and reflects positively not only on the level of official relations, but also at the level of (popular relations). The geopolitical location of the Middle East plays an important role in the growing importance of the region to China, in light of the Middle East’s control over the most important shipping and commercial lanes, as it is a fundamental axis in the Chinese strategy, and the spearhead of its foreign policy, to reshape the international economic system, and what could follow from that.  Reformulating the international system as a whole, all of this and more, made China keen to include the countries of the region in the various groupings and mechanisms that it adopts and leads, most notably the “Belt and Road” initiative, which almost all countries in the region have joined, as well as the “BRICS” grouping, which Egypt recently joined, with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Iran, in addition to Argentina and Ethiopia, and it is expected that other countries in the region will be included in the gathering, in addition to Egypt and Turkey joining as “dialogue partners” in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and the Arab-Chinese Cooperation Forum, in addition to supporting  Middle Eastern countries for the global development, global security and global civilization initiatives put forward by Chinese President “Xi Jinping”.
