It is reported that on the evening of September 22 Beijing time, the Global Digital Compact was officially adopted at the UN Summit of the Future.
Lin noted that the compact underlines development as a priority, universal benefit and inclusiveness, innovation-driven development, and preservation of cultural diversity in the digital space, and it aims to foster an open, fair, inclusive and non-discriminatory digital environment. These principles have much in common with the visions of China's Global Development Initiative and Global Civilization Initiative. The compact proposes to adopt common standards for global data security and hold a Global Dialogue on AI Governance and intergovernmental negotiations. These measures are consistent with what needs to be done to deliver on China's Global Initiative for AI Governance and Global Initiative on Data Security.
Lin said that the compact follows the prevailing trend of promoting digital development and cooperation in the world, reflects the urgent call of all countries, especially Global South countries, for efforts to close the digital divide and wipe out governance deficits, and demonstrates the common aspiration of the international community to respond to digital opportunities and challenges, and build an inclusive, open, fair and secure digital space through joint effort and cooperation. The compact shows international support for multilateralism and digital solidarity and cooperation, and provides fresh impetus for global digital governance.
"China is committed to promoting global digital governance with the UN as the main channel. We have constructively participated in the whole-process negotiation of the compact, and played an important role in its adoption. Going forward, China will, as always, uphold the principle of planning together, building together, and benefiting together, and work with the international community to promote global digital governance, implement the Global Digital Compact, and build a community with a shared future in the digital world."
