Premier Wen Jiabao said in his government work report Friday that China would stick to the path of peaceful development and pursue an open strategy of mutual benefit.
China would promote the building of a harmonious world with lasting peace and common prosperity, Wen said at the annual session of the National People's Congress, the top legislature.
In 2010, China would continue to actively participate in the process of change in the international system and safeguard the interests of developing countries, Wen said.
He said China played a unique and constructive role in a series of major multilateral meetings in the past year and actively took part in international cooperation on dealing with the global financial crisis and climate change.
Wen stressed that China would push for regional cooperation by taking advantage of opportunities offered by the completion of the ASEAN-China free trade zone and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit.
"The Chinese government and people are willing to work with the international community to respond to risks and challenges, share development opportunities, and make new contributions to world peace and development," Wen said.
