Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said on Monday the international community should abide by UN Charter principles, maintain the authority of the United Nations and promote a political solution on the Syria issue.

Li made the remarks while meeting with Chairman of the World Economic Forum Klaus Schwab, who is in Dalian in northeast China's Liaoning Province to attend the Summer Davos Forum.

The world economic recovery is still fragile, and the recovery process might be more difficult if any regional turmoil occurs, Li said.

He noted that on hot-button issues like Syria, the international community should abide by the principles of the UN Charter and the basic norms governing international relations, maintain the authority of the United Nations and promote a political solution to the Syria issue.

The premier added that China will strengthen coordination and cooperation with all sides and create peaceful and stable global conditions for a sustainable recovery of the world economy.

The annual Summer Davos meeting is scheduled to open on Sept. 11. Li will attend the opening ceremony and deliver a speech.

Summer Davos, also known as the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting of the New Champions, is an annual gathering of business leaders, government officials and scholars from around the world. China has played host to Summer Davos, alternately in Tianjin and Dalian, since its inception in 2007.
