The provided text consists of three primary sources: a speech by Xi Jinping, a portion of the UN Charter, and a speech by Franklin D. Roosevelt. Xi Jinping's speech focuses on the "Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence" which he advocates for in international relations. These principles, first established in the 1950s, emphasize mutual respect, non-aggression, and non-interference in each other's internal affairs. The UN Charter, meanwhile, outlines the principles of international cooperation and peaceful dispute resolution, such as sovereign equality and the rejection of the use of force. Lastly, Roosevelt's speech discusses the "Four Freedoms" as a basis for a peaceful world order, arguing that freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom from want, and freedom from fear are essential.
