China has led a UN Security Council open debate, with a call to draw lessons from history and chart the course for the future, aiming to reaffirm commitment to the UN Charter.
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi presided over the day-long discussion.
The Chinese top diplomat called for "cooperation, not confrontation" in an increasingly interdependent world to ensure that "justice, not hegemony" prevails.
He said "The Security Council needs to take more precautionary measures to forestall conflict and act in a timely manner to stop warfare."
The open debate was initiated by China, which holds the rotating presidency of the 15-nation council, to mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations.
For more on the UN open debate, CRI's Shane Bigham spoke earlier with Professor Jin Canrong from Renmin University of China.
