hello, i am a sixth form student who is taking part in a model un conference. i’m representing china on the security council, and as i’m having some difficulty accessing certain sites and papers, i was wondering if anyone could give me a simple runthrough of china’s foreign policies on the major international issues at the moment? also, i would greatly appreciate anyone with any information on china’s stance on haiti letting me know.
thank you
