"When all countries pursue the cause of common good, we can live in harmony, engage in cooperation for mutual benefit and join hands to create a brighter future for the world," he added.

Xi's remarks came shortly after the first plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, which was elected on Saturday at the end of the weeklong 20th CPC National Congress.

At the plenary session, which was attended by 203 members and 168 alternate members of the CPC Central Committee, members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, the Party's top leadership, were elected.

During the meeting, Xi was elected general secretary of the CPC Central Committee and was also named chairman of the CPC Central Military Commission.

Also elected at the meeting was the 24-member Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, which endorsed the members of the CPC Central Committee Secretariat nominated by the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee.

The session named the members of the Central Military Commission. It approved the secretary, deputy secretaries and members of the Standing Committee of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection elected at the first plenary session of the 20th CCDI.
