Xi Jinping said, this is the third time for me to assume the lofty post of President. The trust of the people is the biggest driving force for me to move forward, and it is also a heavy responsibility on my shoulders. I will faithfully perform the duties entrusted by the Constitution, take the needs of the country as the mission, and take the interests of the people as the yardstick. I will fulfill my duties and make dedication wholeheartedly.

Xi Jinping said that the Chinese nation, with a history of more than 5,000 years of civilization, has created countless brilliance and experienced many hardships in history. After modern times, China has gradually become a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, suffering from bullying by foreign powers, fragmentation, frequent wars, and misery. After the founding of the Communist Party of China, it has closely united and led the people of all ethnic groups in the country. After a century of struggle, the national humiliation has been wiped out, and the Chinese people have become the masters of their own destiny. The Chinese nation has ushered in a great leap from standing up, getting rich, and becoming strong. The great revival has entered an irreversible historical process.

Xi Jinping said that from now until the middle of this century, it is the central task of the entire Party and the people to comprehensively build a modern socialist country and comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The baton of building a strong country and national rejuvenation has historically fallen on our generation. In accordance with the strategic deployment of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we must persist in promoting the overall layout of the "five in one" and coordinate the promotion of the "four comprehensive" strategic layout.

Integrate into the overall situation of national development. Realizing the complete reunification of the motherland is the common aspiration of all Chinese people, and it is the essence of national rejuvenation. We must implement the Party's overall strategy for resolving the Taiwan issue in the new era, adhere to the one-China principle and the "1992 Consensus," actively promote the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, resolutely oppose interference by external forces and separatist activities for "Taiwan independence," and unswervingly advance the process of reunification of the motherland.
