BEIJING, June 7-- Many overseas observers have agreed that the white paper "Fighting COVID-19: China in Action" released on Sunday by China's State Council Information Office brings great inspiration to the international community in the global anti-epidemic battle. The paper, an authentic record of China's arduous fight against the disease, has not only shown the country upholding a people-centered policy, a life-first principle and a cooperative mindset throughout its anti-epidemic battle at home, but also demonstrated China being a responsible major country in promoting global anti-epidemic cooperation, they said. Cavince Adhere, an international relations expert with a focus on China-Africa relations, said the paper "comes at a time when much of the world is still struggling with how to bring the infectious disease under control." "It is a welcome document and an important contribution to the international scientific community's efforts to cushion the world from the vagaries of the disease," Adhere said. By documenting the broad and deep global interactions and information sharing on epidemics control, Adhere added, China has "aptly demonstrated the veracity of international collaboration as the most sustainable and effective way of containing the spread of the virus around the world." "China, after its success in controlling the spread of COVID-19, has turned towards helping countries hit by the disease, and is working seriously to develop a vaccine for treatment," said Ahmad al-Marikhy, vice chairman of Egypt's state-run Television and Radio Magazine. |
