Pointing out that profound changes in the world unseen in a century are now evolving at a faster pace with the emergence of more uncertainties and instabilities in the international environment, Liu said the training was a conducive attempt to promote in-depth theory-practice integration in strengthening the capability for promoting foreign-related rule of law.

The training was also a concrete step taken by the ministry to collect opinions and suggestions from a wider range of sources, innovate its work mode, and bring tangible benefits to the public, he said. 

Liu stressed that those who participate in the promotion of foreign-related rule of law should carry out their work in a law-based manner while effectively safeguarding China’s sovereignty, security and interests.
