Shang Yong, vice-minister of emergency management, said the UN certification proved the capability of the two teams to carry out international humanitarian relief work. He said China will beef up its efforts in promoting emergency management capabilities by learning from advanced international experiences.
He said China will also further enhance international cooperation on emergency management and disaster relief by establishing a cooperation mechanism with countries involved in the Belt and Road Initiative.
"China will offer more necessary support to these countries, making full use of its advantages in remote sensing technology and its capabilities in disaster forecast and monitoring and international rescue," he said.
