State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said that a country would lose credibility if it considers only its own interests or promotes its own profits at the expense of others.
Wang made the remark on Tuesday in a meeting in Beijing with Miroslav Lajcak of Slovakia, president of the 72nd Session of the United Nations General Assembly.
Wang called for upholding multilateralism, saying improving and developing the concept is crucial given the current international situation.
The objective of multilateralism should be to develop win-win cooperation, Wang said, adding that dealing with global challenges requires global effort, and one single country or alliance of countries won't be able to carry the load.
