Yeah, they pledge. And China has strong interest to 'tackle global challenges.'
When Chinese leader Xi Jinping visited Russia a few weeks ago to celebrate victory day in Moscow, Chinese state-controlled media outlet South China Morning Post reported that China's Xi Jinping kicked off his state visit by thanking Moscow for supporting Taiwan’s reunification with mainland China.
In a signed article in Russia’s state-run Rossiyskaya Gazeta newspaper ... [Xi Jinping wrote that Taiwan's] unification [with China] must be upheld as part of the post-war international order ... Celebrating the “enduring friendship” between Moscow and Beijing, he said the two countries had supported each other since World War II ...
Two of the global challenges -the war in Ukraine and China's aggression against Taiwan- appear to be closely linked, at least from China's point of view. Would be interested to know what other global challenges they were talking about. Unfortunately the linked report doesn't mention any tangible outcomes of this meeting.

Is destroying Europe the challenge?
I think the challenge is the massive leverage the US has over the EU.
why would china want to destroy eu, we are very important customer for them and given that america is trying to block all and every chinese product sale, Im pretty sure that we are the most important trading partner they have
To answer both your questions at the same time I will say: Russia.
Nobody needs customers. People need resources and are willing to serve customers in exchange.
What has Europe to offer that China needs? We had advanced technologies, but China is quickly surpassing everything.
