File Photo taken April, 1974 shows Deng Xiaoping, then head of the Delegation of the People's Republic of China, addressing the Sixth Special Session of the UN General Assembly. The restoration of the People's Republic of China's sole lawful rights by the 26th UN General Assembly was a major breakthrough in China's diplomacy. As a founding member of the UN and one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, China has played an important role during its process. Later this month, Chinese President Xi Jinping will deliver a speech on the world stage during his visit to the UN. (Photo: Xinhua/Qian Sijie)
