Our three countries, which established the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, are neighboring countries that share long borders with each other. We have adhered to the five principles over the last 70 years, and respected the sovereignty of other countries and maintained friendship among us. If there is any border problem, we usually address the problem through peaceful solutions. There is no doubt that some countries that have practiced these principles have fewer conflicts and greater peace like us.

If you look to the West, some countries are devastated by war. It can be seen that people have lost their lives and homes, and cultural and religious buildings have been destroyed. Women, children and the elderly are also suffering from warfare. It is alarming as it may lead to a bigger and broader conflict.
