Liu said, the CPC and the United Russia Party have maintained institutionalized friendly exchanges and cooperation for a long time. The two Parties have held thematic sessions centering on sustainable development under the framework of China-Russia Political Parties Forum and made fruitful results. At present, the world is facing the combined impacts of a pandemic and major changes unseen in a century. Issues such as climate change and biodiversity pose severe challenges and threats to the existence and development of mankind. The CPC is ready to work with political parties of all countries, including the United Russia Party, coordinate economic development with ecological protection, boost sustainable development of the world, promote the building of a fairer and more just global governance system, and contribute the wisdom and strength of political parties to the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind and the progress of mankind's civilization.

The representatives of political parties said in their speeches that inter-party relationship is an important part of the relations between countries. Political parties of all countries should shoulder responsibilities, promote cooperation between countries, jointly cope with challenges such as climate change, strengthen concept exchanges, experience sharing and policy coordination, promote the steady global economic recovery and sustainable development in the post-pandemic era, practice true multilateralism, and promote the building of a better world.
