Since going on air on China Central Television from Monday, the six-episode political documentary, Major Country Diplomacy with Chinese Characteristics, has sparked heated discussions among people while receiving rave reviews for its panoramic portrayal of China's diplomatic achievements under the leadership of the Communist Party of China Central Committee with Xi Jinping as the core.

The documentary focuses on the new diplomatic concepts, thoughts and strategies put forward by Xi, and highlights the process of China's rise on the global stage and its role as a contributor to global peace. With China becoming the second-largest economy and growing in national strength, major country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics has become all the more important, especially because global issues today cannot be resolved without China's participation.

Since being elected as general secretary of the CPC Central Committee in late 2012, Xi has played a proactive role in international affairs through a series of bilateral and multilateral diplomatic activities held in China as well as other parts of the world. Xi's creative push for building a community of shared destiny and advancing the Belt and Road Initiative, his concept of using "friendship, sincerity, reciprocity and inclusiveness" to improve global governance, expedite development and strengthen security, and his Chinese resolutions to global issues have won China praise from the international community.

Guided by Xi's major country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics, China has consistently stood up for peace, stability and justice, and consistently taken measures that suit its status as a promoter of world peace, contributor to global development and protector of the world order. Under the leadership of Xi, China has already become an epitome of positive energy across the world and its global status and influence have reached unprecedented levels.

Walk alone to walk fast, walk together to walk far. True to this Chinese saying, China, under the guidance of Xi's major country diplomacy, will always pursue an expanded "circle of friends" and broader partnerships with other countries, so that it can share with them opportunities created by China's unprecedented economic development and build a community of shared destiny that values peace, development and prosperity.
