Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, November 4. The opening ceremony of the Third China International Import Expo was held in Shanghai on the night of the 4th. President Xi Jinping delivered a keynote address in video format. Xi Jinping pointed out that the new corona pneumonia epidemic has increased the instability and uncertainty of the world economy, but China is still accelerating the pace of opening up, and the general trend of openness and cooperation between countries has not changed. All countries must work together to promote a common openness for mutually beneficial cooperation, shared responsibility and cooperative governance. China will uphold the beliefs of openness, cooperation, unity and mutual benefit, and will unwaveringly expand openness comprehensively, so that the Chinese market becomes a world market, a shared market and everyone’s market, promote the recovery of the global economy and inject more positive energy into the international community. .
Xi Jinping noted that the current CIIE was held during a special period. The sudden new epidemic of corona pneumonia has had serious effects on all countries and has also caused serious damage to the world economy. China’s holding this global trade event as scheduled under the premise of ensuring the safety of epidemic prevention reflects China’s sincere desire to share market opportunities with the world and promote the recovery of the world economy.
Xi Jinping stressed that despite the impact of the epidemic, China’s pace of opening up this year is still accelerating. The series of measures that I announced at the second CIIE have been fully implemented. China continues to expand imports. The general plan for the construction of the Hainan Free Trade Port and the Shenzhen implementation plan were published and implemented to further expand the reform and opening up. Measures such as the negotiation and signing of high-level free trade agreements, the promotion of innovation demonstration zones for the promotion of import trade, the protection of intellectual property rights and the joint construction of high quality of the initiative ” The Belt and Road “Positive progress has been made.
Xi Jinping pointed out that the epidemic has increased uncertainties and instability in the world economy. From a historical point of view, no matter what risks, disasters or adverse currents are encountered, human society will always move forward and certainly can move forward. The general trend of openness and cooperation between countries has not changed. We must come together to jointly respond to risks and challenges, strengthen cooperation and communication, and jointly expand openness. We must commit to promoting common openness for mutually beneficial cooperation, trust rather than suspicion, joining hands instead of hitting, and bargaining instead of verbal abuse. We must commit ourselves to promoting common openness through cooperation and exchange, major countries must take the lead in demonstration, major economies must lead by example, and developing countries must act actively. We must commit ourselves to promoting open cooperation and joint governance. We must not allow unilateralism and protectionism to undermine the international order and international norms. Instead, we must reform the global economic governance system constructively and promote the construction of an open world economy.
Xi Jinping pointed out that the recently concluded Fifth Plenary Session of the XIX Central Committee of the Communist Party of China has drawn up a comprehensive plan for China’s development during the period of the XIV Five-Year Plan. China’s decisive victory in building a moderately prosperous society in all respects and a decisive battle against poverty will soon be achieved. Starting next year, it will embark on a new journey of comprehensive construction of a modern socialist country, and China will enter a new stage of development. We propose to build a new development pattern in which the great domestic cycle is the main body and the national and international double cycles promote each other. It is not in any way a closed internal cycle, but a more open national and international double cycle. It is not just about China’s development needs, but it will also better benefit the people of all countries. China is the great market with the greatest potential in the world. Made in China has become an important part of the global industrial chain supply chain and made positive contributions. China’s vast domestic demand market will continue to stimulate a steady stream of innovation potential. China will unwaveringly expand its openness comprehensively, making the Chinese market a world market, a shared market and a market for all, injecting more positive energy into the international community.
First, build and open new heights. China will effectively play the leading role of pilot free trade zones and free trade ports, issue a negative list of cross-border trade in services, continue to expand openness in the digital economy, the Internet and other fields, deepen the reform and innovation of the liberalization and facilitation of trade and investment, and will promote further construction of a new horizontal open economy system.
Second, promote the innovative development of foreign trade. China will continue to support companies from various countries to expand business opportunities in China through open platforms such as the China International Import Expo. China will seize the growth potential of foreign trade and make positive contributions to promote the growth of international trade and the development of the world economy. China will accelerate the development of new business models and models such as cross-border e-commerce and foster a new momentum for foreign trade. China will compress the “Catalog of prohibited and restricted technologies for imports into China” to create a good environment for the free flow of technological items across borders.
Third, continue to optimize the business environment. After the epidemic, China has introduced various policies to help companies profit from the bailout and treat Chinese-registered companies equally. This year, China implemented the Foreign Investment Law and related supporting regulations, further narrowing the negative list of access to foreign investment. China will continue to improve an open and transparent foreign-related legal system, strengthening intellectual property protection, safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of foreign-funded enterprises, and creating a better environment with high-quality services.
Fourth, deepen bilateral, multilateral and regional cooperation. China is willing to negotiate with more countries to sign high-level free trade agreements, promote the signing of regional comprehensive economic partnership agreements as soon as possible, speed up the negotiation process of China-EU investment agreements, free trade agreements China-Japan-Korea trade and strengthen exchanges and mutual learning with world-class free trade areas. . China will actively participate in the reform of the World Trade Organization and actively participate in the cooperation of mechanisms such as the United Nations, the Group of Twenty, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation and the BRICS. China will work with relevant countries to jointly build the “Belt and Road” with high quality and promote the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.
Xi Jinping finally pointed out that the Chinese often say, “If you don’t reach the Great Wall, you are not a hero.” Today, global economic development faces serious challenges. We must strengthen our confidence, strengthen our courage, and overcome difficulties together. China is willing to work with other countries to create openness opportunities, cooperatively solve problems, and work together to create a better tomorrow for humanity!
