China is a unified multi-ethnic country composed of 56 ethnic groups, each of which is an equal member of the big family of the Chinese nation. **The General Secretary stressed that all ethnic groups should be equal before the law and that the law should be used to safeguard national unity. The word "equality" has always run through the party's ethnic policy. This distinctive ethnic policy has laid the political foundation for national unity and progress, enabling all ethnic groups to treat each other as equals and forge ahead in unity on the new journey of building Chinese-style modernization. The cause of national unity and progress has confirmed a basic fact: ethnic equality is the cornerstone of the party's ethnic policy, and the party's ethnic work in the new era must unswervingly adhere to this principle.
Today's ** is a vivid practice and epitome of the principle of equality of all ethnic groups. All ethnic groups are equal regardless of their population, history, and level of development. Ethnic groups with small populations, such as the Momba and Lhoba, also have their own representatives in the National People's Congress and the people's congresses at all levels, and enjoy the right to manage state affairs on an equal footing. At the same time, all ethnic groups enjoy the right to equal development, share the fruits of development such as education, medical care, and housing, and live a good life, with a stronger sense of gain, happiness, and security than ever before. With the deepening of the strategy of governing Tibet according to law, the legal awareness of the people of all ethnic groups has been significantly enhanced, realizing that everyone is equal before the law, that the people of all ethnic groups enjoy rights and perform obligations equally, and that no one has the privilege of going beyond the lawWe recognize that any form of ethnic discrimination is wrong, and that any lawless elements who deliberately sow discord between ethnic groups and undermine national unity are our enemies and must be severely cracked down.
Only when we are equal to each other can we live in harmony;Only with one heart and one mind can we move forward bravely. As long as the people of all ethnic groups always adhere to equality and mutual assistance, and work together in unity, they will be able to continuously overcome difficulties and obstacles on the way forward, jointly build the great motherland, and jointly promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
