On June 13th, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin presided over a regular press conference.
A reporter asked, according to reports, a spokesperson for the US State Department recently stated that the US has sent a letter to UNESCO informing them of its plan to rejoin the organization. Yesterday, UNESCO Director General Azoule briefed representatives of member countries on this matter. What is China's comment on the return of the United States to UNESCO?
Wang Wenbin responded that we have taken note of the US statement and hope that the US decision this time is responsible, with the original intention of supporting multilateralism and promoting international cooperation. The United States has twice withdrawn from UNESCO, which has had a negative impact on the organization's work. As a member of an international organization, it is a serious matter. If the United States sincerely rejoins this time, it should demonstrate its sincerity in complying with international rules and respecting the international rule of law, and effectively fulfill its international obligations as a responsible country, including paying in full the outstanding contributions to UNESCO as soon as possible.

"Joining international organizations cannot be seen as visiting the park, coming and going whenever you want, let alone as a geopolitical game field, pretending to be the public of the international community and seeking to maintain the so-called private global leadership." said Wang Wenbin.
