Foreign Ministry Spokesman Mao Ning said on the 16th that China will continue to work with the international community to promote cooperation to reduce poverty, promote the poverty reduction process, and achieve common development. At the regular press conference on the same day, a reporter asked: October 17 is the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty. Affected by factors such as slowing growth and geographical conflicts, the global cause of poverty reduction is facing many challenges. According to a report released jointly by the United Nations Development Programme and the University of Oxford, 1.2 billion people in the world live in severe multidimensional poverty. Some commentators say that China has contributed greatly to global poverty reduction and has also provided valuable experience to the global South. What comments did the spokesperson have on this? Mao Ning said that China's historic elimination of absolute poverty and achieving the poverty reduction goal of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development 10 years ahead of schedule reflects pragmatic people-centered actions, “no one is missing” people's livelihood, and the spirit of struggle to draw up a blueprint to the end.
