民主没有最好,只有更好。人类对民主的探索和实践永无止境。
中国的民主发展取得了显著成就,同时,与现代化建设的新要求、与人民对民主的新期待相比,中国的民主还需要不断发展完善。在全面建设社会主义现代化国家新征程上,中国共产党将继续高举人民民主旗帜,始终坚持以人民为中心的发展思想,坚定不移推进全过程人民民主,在不断推动人的全面发展、全体人民共同富裕中实现民主新发展,让民主之树根深叶茂、永远常青。

文明因交流而多彩,文明因互鉴而丰富。中国人民愿同世界各国人民一道,弘扬和平、发展、公平、正义、民主、自由的全人类共同价值,本着相互尊重、求同存异的精神,共同丰富发展人类政治文明,共同推动构建人类命运共同体。

There is always scope for improving the system of democracy. Humanity's quest for and experiments with greater democracy will never end.
China has achieved considerable progress in developing democracy; to meet the new requirements of modernization and the people's new expectations for democracy, China still needs to make further improvements. On the path towards comprehensive socialist modernization, the CPC will continue to uphold people's democracy, embrace the people-centered development philosophy, promote whole-process people's democracy, ensure the sound development of democracy, and pursue well-rounded human development and common prosperity for everyone.
Today's world is experiencing change on a scale unseen in a century. It can anticipate hopes and opportunities as well as risks and challenges. All paths to democracy chosen by the peoples themselves deserve proper respect. We should pursue peaceful development, safeguard fairness and justice, increase democracy and freedom, and improve the people's wellbeing. This is the only way to build synergy among all civilizations in the quest for a better future.
Civilizations are enriched by exchanges and mutual learning. The Chinese people are willing to work together with all other peoples around the world to carry forward the common values of humanity – peace, development, fairness, justice, democracy and freedom. In a spirit of mutual respect and following the principle of seeking common ground while setting aside differences, we will add new elements to the world's political structure and advance towards a global community of shared future together.
