VIENNA, May 6 (Xinhua) — China calls for strengthening international cooperation in the peaceful uses of outer space and continuously improving global governance, Li Song, China’s permanent representative to the United Nations Office and other international organizations in Vienna, said at the 64th session of the Legal Subcommittee of the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space on Monday.
According to him, space technology is currently changing the way humanity explores the universe at an unprecedented speed, while creating new challenges for global space governance. The international community must adhere to true multilateralism and oppose any form of unilateralism and bullying, Li Song noted.
The diplomat said China has been actively carrying out international cooperation in space and sharing its achievements in space exploration with the international community. For example, the first batch of experimental projects selected through China’s cooperation with the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs are being carried out on board the Chinese space station, he said.
Li Song said China is willing to make greater contributions to the peaceful use of outer space and improving global governance so that the results of space exploration can benefit all of humanity, especially the Global South. –0–
