The #135thCantonFair will be held in three phases in Guangzhou, China from April 15 to May 5, and operate its online platform on a regular basis. Looking forward to seeing you there! China and Ethiopia have a close partnership. Since Covid-19 struck, Ethiopia and many other African countries have supported China and vice versa to contain the spread of the virus. During the most difficult period of China’s epidemic prevention and control, many African countries provided valuable support to China. It reflects the construction of an even stronger China-Africa community of shared future. Since the global spread of the virus, China has provided protective supplies to the African Union (AU) and African countries, and organized experts' video conferences to exchange epidemic control experience. Chinese enterprises and non-governmental organizations have donated medical supplies, kept cargo transportation flowing smoothly, and adopted stringent quarantine and containment measures. On June 17, 2020, the Extraordinary China-Africa Summit on Solidarity against Covid-19 was held via video link. Leaders of more than 10 African countries including Ethiopia, as well as the African Union Commission Chair Moussa Faki Mahamat, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus attended the summit. Chinese President Xi Jinping delivered a keynote speech at the summit, titled "Defeating COVID-19 with Solidarity and Cooperation". Xi said China and Africa must stay committed to fighting Covid-19 together, enhancing their cooperation, upholding multilateralism, and taking their friendship forward. Both should take concrete steps to deliver the commitments made at the Beijing Summit of the Form on China-Africa Cooperation in 2018 to work together to build an even stronger China-Africa community of shared future and do their part in the international cooperation against Covid-19. The summit issued the Joint Statement of the Extraordinary China-Africa Summit on Solidarity Against COVID-19, which signaled to the international community the strong solidarity and cooperation between China and Africa.

WHO Pandemic treaty danger One, if not the most important speeches you should listen to right now. This Swiss lawyer summarises the dangers involved very well if countries like ours sign the proposed amendments by the WHO to the International Health Regulations. Do you want to allow that the WHO rules over everything? If not then watch and share this video as a starter. We’ll be sharing more info this month about what we can all do to stop this. https://lnkd.in/gTFJr2C4

China Is Developing Killer Covid Virus: Get Prepared! Unraveling the Alarming Developments: Chinese Scientists and the Lethal COVID-19 Strain In a recent interview, an individual referred to as the original whistle blower for COVID-19, expressed deep concern over Chinese scientists allegedly experimenting with a more lethal strain of the virus.The interviewee, Jamie Metzel, highlighted the lack of transparency from China and the potential risks associated it. https://lnkd.in/ge43qcXs #covid #covidvirus

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves (Mathew 7:15) Last week world leaders moved closer to a Pandemic Treaty that would hand sovereign power to the unelected World Health Organization. This is the treaty we’ve been warning about. It will give the WHO the power to supersede your country’s government and their laws about pandemic rules and allow the WHO to set their own. They will dictate pandemics, lockdowns, vaccines, masking, and more. It will also let them track and monitor you, define “infodemics” where they think that concepts, even true concepts, are dangerous. Last week was the UN General Assembly. World leaders voted to pass a political declaration on pandemic prevention, preparedness and response. If you don’t believe us, read them for yourself. Start with edits to the WHO International Health Regulations, made this year to prepare for the Pandemic Treaty. Note how “non-binding" is crossed out. That oughta tell you all you need to know, despite the Associated Press telling you that this is all conspiracy theory. Sadly, it's not conspiracy theory. Just conspiracy.

The convention is now at a critical juncture: the final text for countries to ratify is due to be presented at the World Health Assembly in May. With only limited days of negotiation left and a long way to go to secure a meaningful agreement, it is now or never for a treaty that can make the world a safer place.

Many high-level members of the Khazarian-ScamBankers have also now defected to the global white hat alliance, including Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank, according to British M.I.6 ..... The battle is also raging intensively over control of the Bank of Japan and the entire Japanese political system. This is why there have been massive demonstrations in Japan against the WHO’s attempt to use a pandemic treaty to impose totalitarian world dictatorship. https://lnkd.in/dbRJUaXm

Well expressed piece!!! As we all structure our national systems to global coorporations, within bilateral or multilateral initiative, we ought to ask ourselves these pertinent questions:- 1. Do we really need a new global deal? 2. Looking at our current governance, is there any need for augmentation? 3. Do we need greater and sustainable investments( is it thoughtful enough for example that the LMICs contribute an additional 1% of their GDP to the pool of the commons?). 4. Do we need new mechanisms for global governance and finance, and how can we make these new mechanisms fit to the scale and complexity of the challenges experienced now? There is great need to acknowledge, that we are faced with existential crisis, in multiple form. taking action is a necessary step forward.

Sweden is leading the world in reducing smoking-related harm. How did they do it? They adopted a harm reduction approach. Swedish snus, a low-toxin tobacco oral pouch had been used in Sweden for decades. The strong epidemiological data proved that switching from smoking to snus reduced the incidence of smoking-related diseases. In recent years, Sweden has allowed adults who smoke to access #vaping and oral nicotine pouches. End Smoking NZ, which I was part of, lobbied for 10 years for adults who smoked to have access to snus. Prohibitionist thinking and denial of the Swedish evidence prevented NZ from copying Sweden's approach. In 2015, we began lobbying for adults who smoked to have access to #vaping. Thankfully, vaping products were regulated, but oral nicotine (tobacco-free) pouches were banned. Still, NZ smoking rates began a faster downward trajectory. In this short video, I and many others from around the world in attendance at the Warsaw Global Forum on Nicotine, June 2023 share our thoughts on Sweden's "Smokefree" success: https://lnkd.in/gN4gkvQB

Diseases can often debilitate a country that is marred by conflict and facing developmental challenges. It is, thus, necessary to make global health an essential aspect of peacekeeping and peacebuilding. #Globalhealthdiplomacy #conflictresolution
