 Li calls for a stronger United Nations KILDARE, Ireland, April 18, 2004 (UPI) -- Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing spoke during a weekend Asian-Europe Meeting in Ireland, saying Asia and Europe should strengthen the United Nations. "Asia and Europe should work hand in hand to uphold the value and sanctity of the U.N. Charter, and to reinvigorate the United Nations by reform," he said Saturday. "We should encourage harmonious coexistence of different civilizations and call for respect and preservation of cultural diversity." Li said multi-lateralism provides mankind with an effective way to deal with common challenges and important means to solve international disputes, reported Xinhua, China's main government-run news agency. "Partnership should be maintained on the basis of mutual trust fostered through dialogue," Li said in his keynote address to the meeting of foreign ministers. "Countries with different cultures, social systems and ideologies, should have less pride and prejudice, but more sense and sensibility." The meeting drew foreign ministers from the 15 European Union states, as well as Brunei, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam.
