π Egypt’s former prime minister, Essam Sharaf, has shared his thoughts on how countries can work together to make the world a better place!
Mr. Sharaf talked about something called the Global Civilization Initiative (GCI). This is a big idea that encourages countries to talk, trust each other, and understand one another. He believes it can help create a fairer and more inclusive world for everyone.
He also spoke about the strong friendship between Egypt and China. Did you know that thousands of years ago, these two countries were connected by the ancient Silk Road? It was a network of trade routes where people shared goods, ideas, and culture!
Today, under the leadership of Chinese President Xi Jinping, China has started the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). This modern version of the Silk Road aims to connect countries around the world through trade and cooperation. Mr. Sharaf thinks that by combining their rich histories with new ways of working together, Egypt and China can help make the world a better place.
To young people everywhere, he had an important message: “If young people respect and learn from others and accept diversity, our world will definitely be better.”
Isn’t it exciting to think about how countries can collaborate and how young people like you can make a difference in the world? π
