China sets its own path to inspire world

With border conflicts, climate change and rising prices threatening the food security of millions of people displaced from their homes in Burkina Faso, emergency humanitarian assistance funded by China poured into the country earlier this month.
The aid, from China’s Global Development and South-South Cooperation Fund, delivered lifesaving food and other nutritional assistance to 170,000 refugees in the West African nation, marking another effort by Beijing to bolster Burkina Faso’s food security.
“This is the demonstration of China’s role as a major country and its support for the developing nations; a vivid practice of building a community with a shared future for mankind,” said Lu Shan, Chinese ambassador to Burkina Faso, at a handover ceremony of the aid this month.
