Threats To World Peace, Development 
The Chinese diplomat warned that the present international situation was complex and changeable, with serious challenges to world peace and development. Especially with the rise of protectionism, unilateralism and hegemonism, such as "decoupling and breaking industrial and supply chains" and "small courtyards with high walls." Based on the Cold War mentality and narrow geopolitical considerations, Ambassador said some countries have fanned the confrontation between blocs, arbitrarily triggered unilateral sanctions and disrupted the global production and supply chain. Which not only hinders the development of the world economy, but also endangers world peace and security.
