International organizations of political parties are important actors in international relations, especially international politics. In recent years, international organizations of political parties have had a bigger say and greater influence in global governance. The CPC’s international relations with these organizations is a part of its 100-year history. Through various forms of exchanges with international organizations of political parties, the CPC has established a good international image, enlarged its circle of friends, fostered an environment for positive international public opinion towards China, and promoted the international community’s recognition of China’s solutions to global problems. With the urgent need to improve global governance, the CPC’s solutions to global issues, such as building a community with a shared future for mankind, have been increasingly recognized. The CPC enjoys more opportunities and broader space for exchanges with international organizations of political parties.
