Over the past 10 years, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> and LAC have used the high-quality Belt and Road cooperation as a practical platform, adhering to the principles of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits, and working together for common development. From trade connectivity to cultural mutual learning, from shared interests to resonating values, the construction of the China-LAC community with a shared future continues to achieve new milestones, providing profound insights for international relations in today&#8217;s world.<\/p>\n<p>There are many similarities and complementarities between <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> and LAC, which lay a solid foundation for cooperation and political trust. For example, both <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> and LAC have nurtured ancient and colorful civilizations, and their economies are highly complementary. <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> is the largest developing country, and LAC is one of the continents with the highest concentration of developing countries. Both from the Global South, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> and LAC share similar positions and broad common interests. Both sides understand the importance of seeking peace, development, and cooperation in the midst of a tumultuous international situation. Therefore, despite the vast distance, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> and LAC have become close partners. Cooperation and development are always the key terms when discussing China-LAC relations, and their cooperation has set an example for South-South cooperation.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> is not pursuing geopolitics in LAC. The real stories behind the China-LAC community with a shared future are rooted in equality, mutual benefit, innovation, openness and more benefits for the people, with tangible results that can be felt by ordinary people. For instance, Peruvian craftsman <span class=\"xn-person\">Oswaldo Mamani<\/span> used to sell only a few hundred alpaca wool products a year. After these products found success at the China International Import Expo, hundreds of Peruvian craftsmen have become prosperous. As they say, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>, all the way on the other side of the world, has completely changed their lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Chinese new energy vehicles have become a &#8220;green sight&#8221; in LAC. Electric cars and electric buses shuttle through the streets and alleys of many LAC cities, allowing people to enjoy more convenient transportation at a lower cost while providing strong support for local sustainable development. Many research reports from the United Nations Economic Commission for <span class=\"xn-location\">Latin America<\/span> and the <span class=\"xn-location\">Caribbean<\/span> argue that <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> investments and markets play an undeniable role in driving economic growth in LAC.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of attitudes toward <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>, political forces across LAC countries are increasingly unified. Notably, Chinese concepts such as building a community with a shared future for mankind and the three global initiatives have increasingly gained cross-party, cross-ideological support in LAC. In 2023 alone, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> issued joint statements with several countries, including <span class=\"xn-location\">Brazil<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Honduras<\/span>, which expressed support for shared values of humanity, the three global initiatives, and jointly addressing challenges through high-quality Belt and Road cooperation. In May, the &#8220;six-point consensus&#8221; on a political resolution to the <span class=\"xn-location\">Ukraine<\/span> crisis, jointly issued by <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Brazil<\/span>, garnered support from over 100 countries. In this sense, the more stable China-LAC relations are, the stronger the foundation for global peace.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Why are LAC countries able to engage with <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> freely, without burdens or concerns? A key reason is that bilateral cooperation is based on respect, equality, and is free of any attached conditions, and it does not target, exclude, or harm the interests of any third parties. LAC countries have welcomed <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> investments and advanced technologies, seeing them as opportunities for cooperation and development potential.
