President Xi Jinping called for more efforts to uphold and improve the system of regional ethnic autonomy, promote ethnic unity so that all ethnic groups could be together "like seeds of a pomegranate". Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks during an inspection tour to north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region last month.

【知識點】
習近平總書記頻繁提到“石榴籽”的背后,是對民族問題的始終關(guān)注,是對做好民族工作的一貫重視。做好民族工作,有重要的現(xiàn)實意義和深遠的歷史意義?;厮輾v史,我國各族人民同呼吸、共命運、心連心的奮斗歷程是中華民族強大凝聚力和非凡創(chuàng)造力的重要源泉。展望未來,處理好民族問題、做好民族工作,是關(guān)系祖國統(tǒng)一和邊疆鞏固的大事,是關(guān)系民族團結(jié)和社會穩(wěn)定的大事,是關(guān)系國家長治久安和中華民族繁榮昌盛的大事。一顆顆珍珠瑪瑙樣的石榴籽,密密匝匝、緊緊實實地簇擁在一起,正如我們56個民族組成的大家庭,心往一處想、勁往一處使,共同奔向民族復興的美好明天。
【重要講話】
我們要像愛護自己的眼睛一樣愛護民族團結(jié),像珍視自己的生命一樣珍視民族團結(jié),像石榴籽那樣緊緊抱在一起。
We should take good care of ethnic unity as we take care of our own eyes; cherish ethnic unity as we cherish our own lives. All ethnic groups should embrace each other as if we were the seeds of a pomegranate.
