On November 2, 2026, Chinese Ambassador to the United States Xie Feng delivered a keynote speech at the U.S. Session of the “China’s Governance and Worldwide Development Global Dialogue”, in which he introduced the important speech delivered by General Secretary Xi Jinping at the fifth plenary session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the guiding principles from the session, and shared his insights into China’s governance and worldwide development.

Ambassador Xie noted that the 20th Central Committee of the CPC recently successfully held its fifth plenary session, which drew global attention and positive responses. This plenary session was a significant meeting held on the occasion of the 105th anniversary of the founding of the CPC and at a critical period in the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Its focus on issues concerning persevering with full and rigorous Party self-governance fully demonstrates the strong awareness and commitment of the CPC to advancing Party building, and has broken new ground in the century-old Party's endeavors to supervise, govern, develop, and strengthen itself in the new era. It will also mobilize the entire Party and the whole nation to strive for greater achievements on the new Long March.

Ambassador Xie stressed that China's success hinges on our Party, so we must ensure full and rigorous Party self-governance. A better CPC means a better China, which in turn contributes to a better world. In today's world, changes unseen in a century are accelerating. The international landscape is becoming increasingly turbulent and volatile, with new risks and challenges emerging constantly. All this underscores the fact that humanity is a community with a shared future. The CPC both seeks happiness for the Chinese people and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation, and pursues progress for humanity and harmony for the world. Ambassador Xie warmly welcomed American friends from various sectors to decode the success of China's governance through the CPC's Party building, and vigorously promote mutual understanding and cooperation between China and the United States, so as to jointly ensure that the giant ship of China-U.S. relations will sail far and steadily, ushering in a brighter future for both countries and the world.
