In today’s world, chaos is intertwined, and changes in the past 100 years have accelerated its evolution. Solving the development deficit, solving the security dilemma, and strengthening mutual learning among civilizations are issues of the times that must be answered. From the three "newness" of the Internet, Chairman of the Supreme Leader advocates the construction of a more inclusive, peaceful, safe, equal and inclusive cyberspace, which is exactly a Chinese plan that conforms to the changes of the times and responds to the needs of the world.
"New kinetic energy for development"
The Internet has turned the world into a global village where the voices of chickens and dogs hear each other. However, due to various factors such as geography, society and culture, the "digital divide" still stands in front of people.
According to the data of the International Telecommunication Union, by 2017, more than half of the world’s population still has no access to the Internet. Most of the areas below the world average are developing countries.

Volkan Bozkir, President of the 75th session of the United Nations General Assembly, said: "For billions of people, the speed and scale of sustainable development depend on digital connectivity, ‘ Digital divide ’ It may become a new form of inequality. "
In the video speech, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader proposed: "Deepen international exchanges and cooperation in the digital field and accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements. Accelerate the popularization of information services, narrow the digital divide, safeguard and improve people’s livelihood in the development of the Internet, and let more countries and people share the fruits of Internet development. "
China argued that hit the floor.
China has built the largest optical fiber and mobile broadband network in the world. As of June 2023, the number of netizens in China reached 1.079 billion, and the Internet penetration rate reached 76.4%. The "digital divide" between urban and rural areas has narrowed significantly.

"Maintaining a Safe Xinjiang Territory"
