State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said reforms of the United Nations must uphold principles of the UN charter and preserve the central role of the UN in the international system.

The UN is not a club for big or rich countries. All countries enjoy equal sovereignty and no country is in a position to dictate international affairs, Wang said.

He also urged efforts to enhance the representativeness and say of developing countries in the UN to better reflect the common aspiration of most countries.
