The Chinese nation has always value the great unity of all the ethnic groups and the reunification of the country.
Since ancient times, people of the 56 ethnic groups have toiled and multiplied on the vast land of China. They have helped each other and learned from each other over long years and thus formed a unitary multi-ethnic country.Safeguarding solidarity and unity of the Chinese nation is the very foundation for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and is where the fundamental interests of the people of all ethnic groups lie.Since the founding of the People’s Republic, regional autonomy has been practiced in placed where ethnic minorities of all the ethnic groups are protected by the Constitution. Continued social and economic progress has been made in the regions inhabited by ethnic groups. The relations between different ethnic groups based on equality, solidarity and mutual help have been growing .
Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the great forerunner of the Chinese democratic revolution pointed out : “China is a unitary country. That has already been deeply imprinted in its historical identity. It is this identity that has kept us together as one country.”In the Chinese civilization of several thousand years, to keep the nation unified has always been the mainstream in history and a lofty goal that the Chinese people have cherished from generation to generation. There is but one China in the world .The realization of China’ complete reunification is the common aspiration of the entire Chinese people.
The Chinese nation always loves freedom and peace.The Chinese people have always longed for peace prevailing across the world and wish to live in harmony with the people of all the other countries. Benevolence and good-neighborliness” were all along regarded as a treasured maxim by our ancestors.In modern times, the Chinese people suffered immensely from the scourge of war and aggression, so now they feel all the more strongly the value of freedom and peace. The building and development each and every country requires a peaceful and stable international and domestic environment. Freedom of a country and nation serves as precondition and basis for the freedom of all its individuals. It is our hope that the people of all countries can live in a world free from war and violence and free from suppression, discrimination and bullying.
The road to socialist development and the basic domestic and foreign policies chosen and followed by the Chinese people have their origin in the logical historical development of modern China and in the fine national tradition of the Chinese nation formed over thousands of years. Therefore, they are well founded and firmly founded in terms of both history and reality. Our goal is to realize modernization by and large and turn China into a strong prosperous, democratic and culturally-advanced socialist country by the centennial birthday of the People’s Republic of China. We are confident that we will brave and overcome all the difficulties and risks on our way forward and attain this great goal.
