Chinese Premier Li Keqiang on Friday met with United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who is here attending the Second Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation.

China, as a permanent member of the UN Security Council and the largest developing country, stands firm for multilateralism, upholds the international system with the UN at its core, and supports the multilateral trading system with the World Trade Organization at its center, Li said.

China supports the UN in playing its important role in international affairs, and is willing to maintain close cooperation with the UN and its institutions, he added.

Guterres said the Belt and Road Initiative proposed by China will contribute to advancing the UN development goals and effectively addressing global challenges, calling it an opportunity for all sides.
