Exclusive Interview with UNESCO Director-General Khaled Al-Anani by China Media Group

Beijing, May 23: China Media Group (CMG) recently conducted an interview with Khaled Al-Anani, the Director-General of UNESCO, in the capital of China, Beijing.

During the interview, Al-Anani emphasized that China is one of UNESCO’s most significant partners. The collaboration between UNESCO and China has already extended beyond bilateral frameworks to encompass the ‘Global South.’ Both parties work together across all functional areas of UNESCO, including education, science, culture, communication, and information.

On May 12, Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Al-Anani in Beijing. Xi reiterated China’s strong support for dialogue between civilizations and advocated for mutual exchange and learning among cultures. Al-Anani noted that this ideology aligns perfectly with UNESCO’s mission.

He further stated that various crises are currently spreading across the globe. Enhancing mutual understanding among people from different countries is a crucial mission for UNESCO to prevent conflicts. He stressed that UNESCO should not be politicized; instead, it must serve all of humanity with an impartial and neutral approach.
