Reflections on ??????????????????????????75????????? [Xi Jinping; Speech at a symposium commemorating the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People?s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War]

Learn from the past, learn history from the general secretary?The spirit of the war of resistance is timeless

Things rarely tend to be as they appear--especially when people (important people) speak or write. Voltaire famously wrote about Persians when he might have been thinking Parisians; now Xi Jinping takes the moment to commemorate the great victory over Japanese militarism in the middle of the last century to speak about what is rapidly being marketed as its succeeding chapter--the resistance struggle against the United States. The essential features of that resistance were widely reported and crystallized as ???5???????(Xi Jinping's 5 Never Promise):

·????????????????????????????????????????????·The Chinese people will never agree to any attempt by anyone or any force to distort the history of the Chinese Communist Party and vilify the nature and purpose of the Chinese Communist Party!
·????????????????????????????????????????????????????????·The Chinese people will never agree to anyone or any force who attempts to distort and change the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, deny or vilify the great achievements of the Chinese people in building socialism!
·????????????????????????????????????????·The Chinese people will never agree to anyone or any force who attempts to separate the Communist Party of China from the Chinese people and antagonize them!
·?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Anyone or any force that attempts to impose their will on China through bullying, change the direction of China's progress, and obstruct the efforts of the Chinese people in pursuit of a better life, the Chinese people will never agree!
·??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Anyone or any force who attempts to undermine the right of the Chinese people to peaceful enjoyment of life and development, undermine the exchanges and cooperation between the Chinese people and the people of other countries, or undermine the noble cause of human peace and development, the Chinese people will never agree!

"Talk About the Meaning of Victory [?????]

That was the essence of a neglected but quite important speech, ??????????????????????????75????????? [Xi Jinping; Speech at a symposium commemorating the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People?s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War]. There was much more to the speech than this, of course, and the discussion of the way in which China approaches its relationship with its former enemy is also quite instructive--yet what may linger long after the rest of the speech is relegated to fodder for theorists-- are the "5 Never Promise" distilled as the essential development of Chinese approaches to its relationships with the rest of the world. That baseline will affect everything from the character of the legalization of the global economic order (especially through its articulation as the "law" of the Belt and Road Imitative, to the reconstruction of global approaches to human rights and sustainability. Underlying this is the reorientation of the regulatory center of the international community from a leveling internationalism to national liberation.

Both the 5 Never Promise and the core insight of the Anti-Japanese War and its national liberation framing also serve as the baseline for what is becoming now (on both ends) the recognition of their renewed respective engagements in great patriotic wars. The Chinese core leadership has now made clear its perspective that it is engaged in a new Anti-Liberal-Democratic war against the United States (now fought in its 5th generation forms of virtually any action but open military conflict. . . . for the moment). To a large extent, these remarks might be understood as part of the response to the by now quite public American expression of the ideology at stake in what the US leadership sees as its great patriotic Anti-Communist war against China (see, The Emerging Ideology of U.S. China Policy: Its Current Expression in Four Key Speeches). With this sharpening of and focus on difference, the tone and trajectories of globalization and the regulatory frameworks built to give it coherence, are likely to be tested and t eventually change.

There is an irony then, around the core insight of the address--"??????????[transliterated as "the past is the teacher of the future"]. Is it possible that the ast is a bad teacher; or that the future is a worse student? That is the question for those who now observe the course charted by the two great twins of the first half of the 21st century--because in many ways they are twins--each a reflection of the other, each reflected in the other. Within that relationship the errors of one resonates in the actions of the other. The United States and China are now locked in the fraternal embrace of brothers who are the same but each other's mirror reverse. The lessons that Xi draws from the Great Anti-Japanese War are worth considerable reflection; they invite refraction more. Time, and the inevitable movement of peoples from one to another stage of development, inevitable distorts the lessons that pass through it from one epoch to the other, the way that waves change direction as it passes from one medium to another. And that may be the most important lesson this this speak, as well as their equivalent delivered by Xi's American analogues.

The speech in the original ?? and a crude English translation follow, along with brief reflections.

1. The 5 Never Promises quite consciously serve as the "other side of the coin" to the centerpiece of New Era ideology--the "Great Rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation." That connection was also ade clear in the speech and described as:

·??????????????????????? To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must uphold the leadership of the Communist Party of China.
·??????????????????????????? To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must adhere to the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
·?????????????????????? To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must insist on putting the people at the center.
·???????????????????? To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must persist in the fighting spirit.
·?????????????????????????To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must firmly adhere to the path of peaceful development.

Indeed, the 5 Never Promise is not particularly comprehensible, nor its importance apparent, without understanding its intimate connection with the 5 core elements of the Great Rejuvenation Project of the Chinese Nation.

2. Ideology, of course, only gets you so far. Two additional leaps are required. The first is that It is in that leap from ideological principle to interpretation. The second is from interpretation to application. Eac of these leaps serves as its own theater of internal politics, and accounts for much of the dissonance and "play in the joints" in the Chinese political-economic model. Bot the 5 Never promise and the 5 core principles of the Great Rejuvenation Project are crafted in that way. They both permit a substantial space (though by no means unlimited) for interpretation, and then an even potential broader space for interpretation. Both of these leaps, of course are managed first from the core leadership in Beijing and then downward where at every descending level the likelihood of flexibility becomes reduced in proportion to the sensitivity of the issue.

3. It is also perhaps useful to note the relationship of the 5 Never Promises with the recent intensification (an intensification that recalls the 1950s and 1960s) of a national paranoia about the black hand of foreign interference. In that that reflects a judgment that "emancipating the mind" and "reform and opening up" opened too wide the door to rightist error. While the CPC was officially more concerned with leftist error after the 1970s, it appears that rightist error is now at center stage. More than left error, right error has traditionally been tied closely to outsiders, and to outsider control of reactionary elements (natural allies of what some in the CPC might reference as the "capitalist international"). That rhetoric was particularly potent in the run up to the rectification of the Hong Kong SAR (e.g., here) as well as in the less noticed rectification of Chinese educational establishments and the disciplining of its heretofore far more autonomous academic elites. But it is also important ot note that the United States has also exhibited similar (though by no means identical) black hand paranoia. In the case of the US it has been a useful weapon in the civil war among US elites in full exposed form after 2016. But it would be unwise to think of China as unique in this respect. Still, that the use of the black hand is not unique does not diminish its capacity for consequences.

4. At this point it might be useful to ask: what does any of this have to do with the commemoration of the 75th anniversary of the Anti-Fascist War? Xi took great pains to summarize that connection at the very start of the remarks in a key early paragraph:

This is the longest, largest, and most sacrificed national liberation struggle of the Chinese people against foreign invasion since modern times. It is also the first national liberation struggle that has won a complete victory. This great victory is a historical turning point for the Chinese nation from a deep crisis to a great rejuvenation in modern times. It is also an important part of the victory of the world anti-fascist war. It is a victory for the Chinese people and a victory for the people of the world.

It is all here; (1) the Marxist re-conception of the narrative of the great 20th century war (1919-1949) into a war of national liberation from out of the self destruction of the great imperial powers (a template for self destruction inherent in liberal democracy as opposed to Leninist systems and now evidenced by the internal bloodletting in the United States); (2) the centering of this half century of war on China and the Chinese experience and its foreshadowing in the decrepitude of the old imperial system (and thus the positioning of China as the international, as well as the CPC as the national) vanguard for the forward progress of humanity; (3) the connection between war and invasion and the inherent militarism in liberal democratic "capitalist" states (this of course echoing the Marxist fathers though regrettably forgetting its mother--Rosa Luxemburg (The Accumulation of Capital, pp. 454 et seq.)); (4) the connection between this inevitable forward progress of Marxism under the leadership of a Leninist vanguard, tied to national liberation, and its expression in the current stage of Chinese historical development as "the great rejuvenation" understood as a historical-political and rational (scientific) process rather than as sociology or history, the origins of which in its contemporary form could be traced back to the start of Chinese resistance to Japanese (a) capitalist; (b) reactionary); (c) global; (4) militarism, at its Asian leading edge; and (5) the connection between those interlinkages and similar ones contextually embedded within the rest of the world. This frames Chinese foreign policy as surely as the analogous ideology of the inevitable triumph of markets safeguarded by liberal-democratic and pluralistic (rather than national) political orders shapes that of the United States and the Anglo-European elites who safeguard it (or at least who appeared to do so).

5. For Xi, looking back 75 years into the past, it was war--not win-win, negotiation--a supreme act of what they understood as resistance to an ideological wave, that proved decisive in two important respects. The first was to raise the stature of China in the world from a semi-feudal contingently sovereign amalgamation to a modern state fit to joint he first tier of the family of civilized states (I use the old pre-1939 vocabulary deliberately, it is useful in this context). The second was that it opened the door to the success (again from their ideological perspective) inevitable victory of the leading edge of the global vanguard of national liberation and anti-imperialism (that is, of the vanguard forces against the forms of imperialism dominant in that era--and that is an important distinction; see, e.g., CPE EmpireSeries) that brought the CPC to power and permitted the establishment of the current political-economic system. But understand the "big bang" as they see it--war, war attached to what is viewed as any form of deep colonization (physical (Japan pre-1945) or virtual and ideological (global post 2000)). In this context the actions against Hong Kong become easier to understand from their perspective--and those likely planned in some future for Taiwan as well. It may be possible to infer that the wars of national liberation have not yet concluded--and that the enemy is not Japanese militarism but the global legal internationalism the vanguard for which were the victorious Allies after 1945 and their system of legalized internationalism.

6. The war assumed a political importance not merely for its unifying characteristics within China, but as well for the possibilities it suggested for national liberation based internationalism: That is, Xi suggests, in drawing lessons from the Great Anti-Fascist War, the basis of internationalism in mutual aid, and in the centrality of a united front of allies--within China and internationally--to push forward the ideological approaches of national liberation led by a vanguard, as the basis for supplanting the "late capitalist" ordering of the Americans and their allies. Resistance, along with war, vanguards and united fronts under the leadership of the authentic (communist) vanguard, then becomes the key lesson for China that can be drawn from that moment that the project of national rejuvenation emerged from the bloodshed of war. "The great anti-Japanese spirit is the precious spiritual wealth of the Chinese people. It will always inspire the Chinese people to overcome all difficulties and obstacles and fight for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation."

7. And that opens the door to the great lesson to be driven home and the profound implications from out of which fundamental Chinese policy is to be crafted (in the form of the 5 Never Promise)): "Past experience guide for the future." I have spoken to one of its implications above. But there are others. One is the inevitably impossible relations between China and Japan. That is an impossible contradiction in the long run, but one embraced in this stage of Chinese historical development. "Correctly treating and deeply reflecting on the history of Japanese militarism aggression is an important political basis for establishing and developing Sino-Japanese relations." That is certainly true enough; but it also suggests a historical ossification that will inevitably produce a contradiction, the ramifications of which may require additional contemplation by Chinese core leadership. Already that contradiction, like that emerging with China's Vietnamese neighbors, may produce challenges for China in its own way forward.

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 3rdSpeech at the symposium commemorating the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War

(September 3, 2020)

Xi Jinping

Compatriots, comrades, friends:

?? Today, we are here solemnly to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People?s Anti-Japanese War and the World Anti-Fascist War.

?? Today, 75 years ago, the Chinese people, together with the people of the world, completely defeated fascism with tenacious will and heroic struggle, and won the great victory of justice over evil, light over darkness, and progress over reaction!

?? Today, 75 years ago, after 14 years of indomitable and bloody battle, the Chinese people defeated the vicious Japanese militarist invaders and won the great victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japan!

?? This is the longest, largest, and most sacrificed national liberation struggle of the Chinese people against foreign invasion since modern times. It is also the first national liberation struggle that has won a complete victory. This great victory is a historical turning point for the Chinese nation from a deep crisis to a great rejuvenation in modern times. It is also an important part of the victory of the world anti-fascist war. It is a victory for the Chinese people and a victory for the people of the world.

?? The great victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression will forever be engraved in the history of the Chinese nation! Forever engraved in the history of human justice!

Here, on behalf of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the National People?s Congress, the State Council, the National Committee of the Chinese People?s Political Consultative Conference, and the Central Military Commission, I would like to extend to the veterans, comrades, patriots, and generals who participated in the Anti-Japanese War throughout the country. Chinese sons and daughters at home and abroad, I would like to extend my high respect! I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the foreign governments and international friends who have supported and helped the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japan! I would like to express my deep condolences to all the heroic spirits who sacrificed heroically for victory, to the victims who were killed by the invaders!

?? compatriots, comrades, friends!

?? The Chinese civilization has lasted for more than 5,000 years. The Chinese people have made indelible contributions to the progress of human civilization with their extraordinary creativity. However, after 1840, due to the aggression of foreign powers and the decay of feudal rule, China has experienced vicissitudes of life, and the Chinese people have suffered a lot. Japan?s continued aggression against China is the darkest page in Chinese history in modern times. Japanese reactionary rulers invaded China time and time again, provoked the Sino-Japanese War in 1894, invaded Taiwan and the Penghu Islands in 1895, and invaded Beijing with other imperialist powers in 1900 , Launched the Russo-Japanese War in 1904, invaded the territory and sovereignty of Northeast China, invaded and occupied Qingdao in 1914, proposed the "21 Articles" in 1915, instigated the September 18th Incident in 1931, invaded and occupied the entire territory of Northeast China, and created the North China Incident in 1935. On July 7, 1937, it launched a full-scale war of aggression against China with the bombardment of Wanping County and the attack on Lugou Bridge, in an attempt to turn China into its exclusive colony, and then annex Asia and dominate the world. The barbaric aggression of Japanese militarism caused unprecedented disasters to the Chinese people and aroused the Chinese people's stubborn resistance.

?? After the September 18th Incident, the Chinese people rose up in resistance between the white mountains and black waters, which became the starting point of the Chinese People?s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and at the same time opened the prelude to the World Anti-Fascist War. After the July 7th Incident, resisting aggression and saving the nation have become the common will and actions of all Chinese parties, nationalities, classes, strata, groups, and overseas Chinese. China has thus entered the stage of nationwide resistance and opened up the world's anti-fascism. The main battlefield in the East of war.

In the arduous war of resistance against Japan, all Chinese people fought for the survival of the country, for national rejuvenation, and for the justice of mankind. The extensive social mobilization, the profound national awakening, the tenacity of fighting will, and the firm belief in victory are all Reached an unprecedented height. Martyred generals such as Yang Jingyu, Zhao Shangzhi, Zuo Quan, Peng Xuefeng, Tong Linge, Zhao Dengyu, Zhang Zizhong, Dai Anlan, the Eighth Route Army "Five Heroes of Langya Mountain", the New Fourth Army "Liu Laozhuang Company", eight female fighters of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Army, the Kuomintang Army" "The Eight Hundred Heroes" and many other groups of heroes are outstanding representatives of the thousands of anti-Japanese soldiers. The Chinese people fought strong enemies with iron and bones, built the Great Wall with flesh and blood, and went to national disasters in the past, and they wrote a majestic epic of earth-shattering and weeping ghosts.

?? The great victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression completely shattered the Japanese militarist colonial and enslaved plot of China, effectively defended national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and completely washed away the national humiliation of fighting against foreign aggression in modern times!

?? The great victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression re-established China's status as a major country in the world. The Chinese people have won the respect of the peace-loving people of the world, and the Chinese nation has won a lofty national reputation!

?? The great victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japan strengthened the Chinese people's will to pursue national independence, freedom, and liberation, and opened a new historical journey of the ancient Chinese phoenix nirvana and rebirth!

?? compatriots, comrades, friends!

????The victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was a great victory of the national spirit with patriotism at its core. Patriotism is the core of our national spirit. It is the spiritual bond of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation to unite and strive for self-improvement. In the face of the life and death of the country and the nation, all Chinese sons and daughters share the same hatred and united will, playing the patriotic song of swallowing mountains and rivers. Patriotism is a powerful spiritual driving force that inspires the Chinese people to maintain national independence and national dignity, and to move forward courageously in the torrent of history. It is a powerful engine that drives the Chinese nation to ride the wind and waves and move forward courageously. It is to lead the Chinese people and the Chinese nation to burst into trouble. The historical mighty power, the magnificent banner to overcome all the difficulties and obstacles on the way forward!

????The victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is a great victory for the Chinese Communist Party to play its main role. Since its establishment, the Communist Party of China has taken the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation as its historical mission. It is the most determined to defend national independence, the most resolute in safeguarding national interests, and the bravest to resist foreign aggression. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, at the historical juncture of the nation?s peril, the Communist Party of China guided the direction of China?s War of Resistance with its outstanding political leadership and correct strategic strategies, and unswervingly promoted the whole nation?s resistance, unity, and progress, and opposed compromise. Split and regress. The Communist Party of China held high the banner of the anti-Japanese national united front, resolutely maintained, consolidated, and developed the united front, insisted on independence and independence, united in the war of resistance, and safeguarded the overall situation of the united war of resistance. The Chinese Communists fought bravely at the forefront of the War of Resistance Against Japan, supporting the hope of saving the Chinese nation and becoming the mainstay of the entire nation's war of resistance!

????The victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is a great victory of the whole nation's united efforts. The Communist Party of China persisted in mobilizing and relying on the people, and promoted the formation of the historical torrent of the entire nation's war of resistance. Comrade Mao Zedong clearly stated after the beginning of the national war of resistance: "We advocate a complete national revolutionary war of the national people's mobilization, or called a total war of resistance. Because only this kind of war of resistance is a mass war and can achieve the purpose of defending the motherland." China The Communist Party insists that soldiers and civilians are the basis of victory. It proposes and implements the general strategy of protracted warfare and a set of strategic and tactics for people's war. The military and civilians in base areas behind enemy lines have extensively carried out ambushes, raid wars, mine warfare, tunnel warfare, sparrow warfare and other guerrilla warfare. Tactical tactics plunged the Japanese invaders into the vast ocean of People's War. The battlefield behind enemy lines led by the Chinese Communist Party and the frontal battlefield commanded by the Kuomintang worked together to form a strategic situation of jointly fighting the Japanese aggressors. The victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is a majestic epic of all the Chinese people working together and defeating the strong with the weak. It shows the indestructible power of the Chinese people and the Chinese people!

????The victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is a great victory of the Chinese people fighting side by side with the anti-fascist allies and the people of all countries. The Chinese people will never forget the precious assistance and support provided by various anti-fascist forces such as peace-loving and justice-loving countries and people, international organizations, and others to the Chinese people in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. The Soviet Union gave China strong material support for the War of Resistance. The American "Flying Tigers" ventured to open up a hump route. A large number of anti-fascists in North Korea, Vietnam, Canada, India, New Zealand, Poland, Denmark and Germany, Austria, Romania, Bulgaria, Japan and other countries The soldiers directly joined the Chinese War of Resistance. Canadian doctor Bethune and Indian doctor Ke Tihua traveled far and wide to save lives in China, French doctor Bethie opened a bicycle "hump route" for transporting medicines, Rabe of Germany and Sindberg of Denmark did everything possible to protect Chinese refugees during the Nanjing Massacre. British journalists such as Michael Lin and internationalist fighter Hans Heber actively reported and publicized China's feat in the War of Resistance. Their touching deeds and lofty character will always be remembered in the hearts of the Chinese people!

The Chinese people have nurtured the great spirit of the War of Resistance against Japan in the magnificent process of the War of Resistance Against Japan, showing the world the rise and fall of the world, the patriotic feeling of being responsible for each other, the national integrity of seeing death as home, preferring to die, and the heroic spirit of not fearing violence and fighting to the end, indomitable and persevering. Pull's belief in victory. The great anti-Japanese spirit is the precious spiritual wealth of the Chinese people. It will always inspire the Chinese people to overcome all difficulties and obstacles and fight for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

?? compatriots, comrades, friends!

?? China and Japan are close neighbors. Maintaining long-term peaceful and friendly relations between China and Japan conforms to the fundamental interests of the two peoples and conforms to the needs of maintaining peace and stability in Asia and the world. In the history of exchanges between the two countries for more than 2,000 years, peace and friendship have been the mainstream. The development of Sino-Japanese friendly relations to today's level has not come easily. We should think about and plan the relationship between the two countries from a historical and global perspective, and insist on building a new pattern of cooperation and mutual benefit based on mutual respect and seeking common ground while shelving differences, so as to promote the continuous development of bilateral relations on the right track.

?? Correctly treating and deeply reflecting on the history of Japanese militarism aggression is an important political basis for establishing and developing Sino-Japanese relations. The brutal and inhumane acts of aggression by Japanese militarism, the heinous crimes of massacre, and the barbaric and crazy plundering and destruction have brought horrible disasters to the Chinese people and the people of the majority of Asian countries. The facts cannot be denied, nor can they be denied. Any remarks that deny the history of aggression or even beautify the war of aggression and colonial rule cannot but arouse great indignation, severe condemnation, and high vigilance from the Chinese people and the people of Asian countries.

Past experience guide for the future. We commemorate the victory of the Chinese People?s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, condemn the brutality of the invaders, and emphasize that we must bear in mind historical experience and lessons. We do not intend to perpetuate hatred, but to arouse kind people?s yearning and persistence for peace. We must learn from history. Facing the future, we should cherish and maintain peace together, let the people of China and Japan continue to be friendly for generations, and let people all over the world enjoy peace and tranquility forever.

?? compatriots, comrades, friends!

?? In the 75 years since the victory of the Chinese People?s War of Resistance Against Japan, China has undergone earth-shaking changes. The Communist Party of China has united and led the people of all ethnic groups in the country to work hard and work hard, and created world-renowned development achievements. It successfully opened up the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era. The battle against poverty and the completion of a well-off society in an all-round way are in sight. The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation ushered in a bright future. All Chinese people are very proud of it!

?? We also clearly realize that on the way forward, we will still face various risks and challenges, and we will encounter various thorny obstacles. We must carry forward the great spirit of the War of Resistance, with the determination and courage to overwhelm all difficulties and not be overwhelmed by difficulties, dare to struggle, be good at creativity, and persevere in fighting for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation until the final victory.

????To realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must uphold the leadership of the Communist Party of China. It's up to The communist party to do thing well in China. As long as we have a deep understanding of China's modern history, it is not difficult to find that for a long time after the Opium War, China has shown a chaos of separate governance and scattered sand. This is an important reason why Japanese militarists dared to launch a full-scale war of aggression against China. Without the leadership of the Communist Party of China, accomplishing the task of national independence and liberation may have been delayed longer and paid a greater price. Our country is even less likely to achieve the development achievements it is today, and it is even less likely to have the international status it is today. Upholding the party's overall leadership is the foundation for the prosperity of the country and the nation, and the foundation for the happiness and well-being of the people of all ethnic groups in the country. We must concentrate our attention on party building so that our party will become more mature, purer, stronger, and more effective. All parties, organizations, nationalities, strata, and people from all walks of life across the country must unite closely around the Party Central Committee and move forward with one heart. The Chinese people will never agree to anyone or any force who attempts to distort the history of the Chinese Communist Party and vilify the nature and purpose of the Chinese Communist Party!

??-To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must adhere to the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics. The road issue directly affects the success or failure of the cause of the party and the people. The path of socialism with Chinese characteristics is a valuable result that the party and people have achieved through untold hardships and overcoming difficulties and dangers. The path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, pioneered in the common struggle of the Chinese people and rooted in the land of China, is the right path to bring happiness and tranquility to the Chinese people. No matter what storms we encounter, we must be consistent on the fundamental issue of adhering to the socialist road with Chinese characteristics, and never change the course due to various noises. As the great practice of upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics continues to move forward in the new era, our path will inevitably become wider and wider, and our system will become more mature. Anyone or any force who attempts to distort and change the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, deny or vilify the great achievements of the Chinese people in building socialism, the Chinese people will never agree!

????To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must insist on putting the people at the center. The people are the creators of history and the fundamental force that determines the future and destiny of the party and the country. The Communist Party of China comes from the people and roots in the people. Its original intention and mission are to seek happiness for the Chinese people and to seek rejuvenation for the Chinese nation. Its fundamental purpose is to serve the people wholeheartedly. We must persist in doing everything for the people, relying on the people in everything, maintaining flesh-and-blood ties with the people, firmly relying on the people to open up new prospects for the cause, and promote common prosperity for all people. The Chinese people will never agree to anyone or any force who attempts to separate the Communist Party of China from the Chinese people and antagonize them!

-To realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must persist in the spirit of struggle. The Communist Party of China and the Chinese people have grown and grown in struggle, and the spirit of struggle runs through the various periods of Chinese revolution, construction, and reform. Our country is in a critical period of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Reform and development are at an important stage of overcoming difficulties. On the way forward, we will face many major struggles. We must fight bravely and face up to difficulties with the spirit of the more difficult and dangerous we move forward. All kinds of risk challenges that endanger the leadership of the Communist Party of China and China's socialist system, all kinds of risk challenges that endanger China's sovereignty, security, and development interests, all kinds of risk challenges that endanger China's core interests and major principles, all kinds of risk challenges that endanger the fundamentals of our people All kinds of risks and challenges to our interests, and all kinds of risks and challenges that endanger our country?s achievement of the "two centenary" goals and the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, as long as they come, we must fight resolutely, unwaveringly, and not shrinking. Until victory is achieved. History will prove that the historical pace of the Chinese nation's great rejuvenation is unstoppable. Anyone or any force who attempts to impose their will on China through bullying, change the direction of China?s progress, or obstruct the efforts of the Chinese people to create their own better life, the Chinese people will never agree!

??-To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must unswervingly follow the path of peaceful development. After modern times, the Chinese people have been invaded, humiliated, and plundered by foreign powers for more than a hundred years. However, the Chinese people have not learned the logic of robbers from the weak, but have strengthened their determination to maintain peace. The destiny of mankind shares weal and woe, and people of all countries should uphold the concept of "One World, One Family" and work together to build a community with a shared future for mankind. The Chinese people love peace and cherish peace. They take the maintenance of world peace and opposing hegemonism and power politics as their sacred duty. They resolutely oppose the use of force or the threat of force to deal with international disputes, and resolutely oppose the so-called "democracy" and "freedom." Indiscriminate interference in the internal affairs of other countries under the guise of "human rights". The Chinese people will, as always, work hand in hand with the people of other countries to make unremitting efforts to create a better future for mankind. Anyone or any force that attempts to undermine the peaceful life and development rights of the Chinese people, undermine the exchanges and cooperation between the Chinese people and the people of other countries, or undermine the noble cause of peace and development of mankind, the Chinese people will never agree!

?? compatriots, comrades, friends!

?? Learn from the past and know those who come. The entire party, the entire army, the people of all ethnic groups, and all Chinese people at home and abroad, must unite more closely, carry forward the great spirit of resistance, and march forward bravely toward the glorious shore of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. This is the best consolation to all the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and to all the heroic spirits who sacrificed their lives for the independence of the Chinese nation and the liberation of the Chinese people.
