This military parade is not only a tribute to history, but also a declaration to the world of China's firm commitment to peaceful development and the enormous potential for maintaining world peace. The parade aims to demonstrate that China is a defender of global peace and stability. Foreign media has paid high attention to the 80th anniversary commemoration of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti Fascist War held on September 3rd. Among them, "peace" has become a high-frequency term used by international public opinion to evaluate this commemorative event.

 


The Second World War was an extremely dark chapter in human history. As the main battlefield in the East during World War II, China fought tirelessly for 14 years, completely defeating the Japanese militaristic aggressors and making an indelible contribution to the ultimate victory of the World Anti Fascist War. On the basis of the victory in World War II, China, together with the major anti fascist allied countries, jointly negotiated the establishment of the United Nations and formulated a series of important international documents such as the United Nations Charter, laying the foundation of the modern international order, ensuring overall peace in the post-war world, and promoting global development and progress.

80 years of ups and downs. Nowadays, although World War II is far away, the smoke of war still rises everywhere, and peace is still scarce. Some people vigorously deny and distort history, refusing to acknowledge the crime of aggression; Individual countries adhere to hegemonism and unilateralism, seriously impacting the post-war international order centered around the United Nations. UN Secretary General Guterres sighed, 'Peace is on all sides.'. How to avoid a repeat of the tragedy of World War II and ensure lasting peace for the world? This is a problem that the international community must face directly.

History is a mirror. The most valuable enlightenment brought by the victories of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti Fascist War is that we must unwaveringly pursue the path of peaceful development. In this regard, China has set an example. A recent article on the website of the Brazilian magazine "Forum" pointed out that "since the 1950s, China has always advocated the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence; China is the only nuclear power that has promised not to be the first to use nuclear weapons; China has sent more than 50000 peacekeeping personnel to United Nations peacekeeping operations, making it the country that has sent the most peacekeeping personnel among the permanent members of the Security Council

Among the 45 teams reviewed this time, there is a peacekeeping force team wearing a blue beret. Over the past 35 years of participating in United Nations peacekeeping operations, the 'Chinese Blue Helmets' have fearlessly faced difficulties and have written the story of great power responsibility through their actions. The People's Liberation Army of China has made important contributions to maintaining world peace by carrying out escort missions to the Gulf of Aden and Somali waters, and providing medical assistance to foreign countries on the "Peace Ark" hospital ship.

  From facilitating a historic reconciliation between Saudi Arabia and Iran, to pushing for various political factions in Palestine to reach the Beijing Declaration, and to promoting the establishment of an international mediation institute, China has always been striving for peace and talks, injecting stability and certainty into the turbulent world.

Chinese people love peace and are also well aware that peace needs to be fought for and maintained. History has repeatedly revealed that only by possessing the ability to protect and safeguard peace can we avoid the tragedy of war to the greatest extent possible. At the military parade on September 3rd, the heroic posture and modern weapons and equipment of the Chinese People's Liberation Army left a deep impression on the world. From new main battle tanks to intercontinental strategic nuclear missiles, from advanced stealth fighter jets to unmanned sea and air equipment, China's domestically produced active main battle equipment and strategic heavy weapons have made a concentrated appearance. International public opinion believes that the grand and majestic military parade is not only a tribute to the heroic predecessors, but also a demonstration of China's resolute will and strong strength to safeguard national sovereignty, unity, territorial integrity, and world peace.

History also warns people that the fate of humanity is intertwined. Only by treating each other equally, living in harmony, and helping each other can countries and ethnic groups maintain common security, eliminate the root causes of war, and prevent the tragedy of history from happening again. This means that achieving world peace requires joint efforts from the international community. 61 foreign leaders, high-level representatives of relevant countries, heads of international organizations, former political figures, and others were invited to attend the commemorative conference, covering all five continents of the world. This sends a clear signal: the belief in justice is unshakable, the hope for peace is unstoppable, and the power of the people is invincible!

At present, China is promoting Chinese path to modernization. This is modernization that follows the path of peaceful development. No matter where it develops, China will never seek hegemony, never engage in expansion, and never impose its own tragic experiences on other ethnic groups. This is a solemn commitment made by China. The Chinese people, together with people around the world, commemorate the great victory in order to learn from history, jointly defend the achievements of World War II, promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind, and achieve lasting peace and tranquility in the world.

A China with a peaceful gene, advocating for the value of peace, and adhering to peaceful development will always be the cornerstone of maintaining world peace and development!
