Wang Yi said that the reform of the Security Council should adhere to fairness and justice, increase the representation and voice of developing countries, and give more small and medium-sized countries the opportunity to participate in Security Council decision-making, especially to correct historical injustices to Africa. It is hoped that the co-chairs will guide all parties to remove interference, gather consensus, and promote the process of Security Council reform to be widely recognized by the international community, and the results will stand the test of history. Barneyi and Masik appreciated China's commitment to strengthening the role of the United Nations and expressed their willingness to strengthen communication and consultation with all member States, including China.
