It looked forward to a peaceful world in which any competition would be positive, healthy, and comply with international norms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to COVID-19, he had to give the speech virtually, but both in content and presentation style it was an effective piece of oratory and the most significant of the occasion\u2019s various speeches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>COVID-19 has been disastrous for the world economy and society and has affected international relationships. No surprise then that it dominated the speeches, including President Xi\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this writer, there were three main takeaway messages from Xi\u2019s speech.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first was the need for international cooperation in fighting COVID-19. Just as he had done at the World Health Assembly on May 18, he committed China to US$2 billion of international aid over two years to help other countries restore their economic and social development. He also committed several Chinese-developed vaccines, already in phase three clinical trials, as a \u201cglobal public good\u201d. China will not horde the vaccines it develops, a good model in a world where \u201cvaccine nationalism\u201d seems the order of the day and each country is caring only about itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Please click here to read the full \u201c<a
