Commentary: China's foreign aid, a paradigm of South-South cooperation and mutual help between developing countries, has promoted the realization of the UN Millennium Developing Goals, thus integrating the Chinese Dream into the world's dream.
Half a century ago, then-premier Zhou Enlai put forward the Eight Principles of Foreign Aid, the foundation of China's foreign aid policy.
China's 64-year history of providing foreign aid is one of mutual assistance based on equality, common development and deepening friendship between China and other developing countries.
China's foreign aid has helped recipient countries develop their national economy, improve their people's livelihood and promote social progress, and this policy has earned respect and reliance from these countries and shown the world that China is a responsible major developing country.
Furthermore, the Chinese model of providing foreign aid adheres to the principles of not imposing any political conditions, not interfering in the internal affairs of the recipient countries, and fully respecting their right to independently choose their own paths and models of development.
