maximize positive spillovers while minimizing negative external impacts.
In addition, the encouragement of mutual learning would help address
asymmetries in systems, policies, and standards. We should also enhance

the global infrastructure connectivity alliance initiative and backed the
adoption of a joint declaration of aspirations in which multilateral

and least developed countries in their industrialization. These moves are
of groundbreaking significance. Further, all parties are committed to
working for implementation of the Paris Agreement on climate change
as soon as possible. We have also formulated joint action plans on energy
accessibility, energy efficiency, renewable energy, and entrepreneurship,
and will strengthen cooperation on food security and agriculture. We care
