Zhang Xiaogang: We have released information on Defense Minister Dong Jun's visit to Russia and Kyrgyzstan. In his speech at the SCO Defense Ministers' Meeting, Minister Dong Jun emphasized that the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, the Global Civilizations Initiative, and the Global Governance Initiative put forward by President Xi Jinping have provided much-needed stability and certainty for a turbulent world. The SCO is a stellar example of practicing multilateralism. Its member states should firmly defend the international order, work together to safeguard fairness and justice, join hands to improve security governance, remove the breeding ground for turbulence and conflict through common development, and contribute the SCO's share for "sustainable peace, development and prosperity" advocated by this meeting. At the new starting point of the 25th anniversary of the founding of the SCO, the Chinese military stands ready to work with all parties to enhance the effectiveness of existing mechanisms, strengthen personnel training to solidify the foundation for cooperation, and take concrete actions to consolidate security, so as to promote high-quality development of the SCO featuring a higher level of unity, coordination, vitality and influence.
