President Xi Jinping says China will continue to strengthen its nuclear security capability, and remains firmly committed to building an international nuclear security system and supporting global cooperation.

He made the remarks at the third Nuclear Security Summit in The Hague on Monday.

Elaborating on his country’s approach, Xi called for global cooperation to ensure nuclear energy’s lasting security and development.

After the two-day summit, the president left for France on Tuesday afternoon to continue his four-country European tour, which will also take him to Germany and Belgium.

Aimed at preventing nuclear terrorism, the summit seeks to reduce the amount of dangerous nuclear material in the world, improve security of all nuclear material and radioactive sources, and strengthen international cooperation.

On Tuesday, Xi called on nations to work together to prevent and crack down on nuclear terrorism in all forms.

Together with Xi, leaders from more than 50 countries and international organizations gathered in The Hague to assess past achievements in safeguarding global nuclear security and to seek more action in preventing nuclear material from falling into the wrong hands.

At the end of the summit, world leaders called for countries to minimize their stocks of highly enriched nuclear fuel to help prevent al-Qaida-style militants from obtaining atomic bombs.

In a joint statement, leaders from 53 countries said much headway has been made in the past four years. But they also made clear that many challenges remain and stressed the need for increased international cooperation to ensure highly enriched uranium, plutonium and other radioactive substances do not go astray.
