Xi Jinping: We will participate more actively in the international division of labor and integrate into the global industrial chain, supply chain and value chain more effectively. We will actively cooperate with all countries, regions and companies that wish to cooperate with China.
This passage comes from Xi Jinping’s keynote address at the APEC Business Leaders Dialogue on November 19, 2020.
Against the backdrop that the new corona pneumonia epidemic is ravaging the world, the world economy is in deep recession, the global industrial chain and supply chain are being hit, and unilateralism and protectionism continue to rise, the President Xi Jinping’s speech demonstrates China’s determination and determination to continue deepening foreign cooperation. The sincere sincerity of achieving mutual benefit and win-win results with other countries in the world has given impetus to a world that has undergone unprecedented changes in a century and has injected all the positive energy.
The Asia-Pacific region is a major engine of global economic growth, and its vitality, potential, and direction of economic growth directly affect global economic development. APEC is the highest-level, broadest and most influential trade and economic cooperation mechanism in the Asia-Pacific region. Its birth more than 30 years ago was in line with the historical trend of openness and integration. For 30 years, its development has promoted the liberalization of regional trade and investment. The facilitation has promoted the interconnection of regional hardware, software and personnel exchanges, improved the level of regional economic integration, and deepened the concept of a community with a shared future in Asia and the Pacific. In November this year, the 27th APEC Informal Leaders Meeting adopted the “APEC Putrajaya Vision 2040”, promising to strongly support the multilateral trading system, promote the vigorous development of the digital economy and achieve economic sustainability and inclusion. For growth, we are committed to building an open, dynamic, resilient and peaceful Asia-Pacific community.
In today’s world, the trend of economic globalization is irreversible, and China has been deeply integrated into the world economy and the international system for a long time. Since 2013, at APEC informal leaders meetings and business leaders summits and on other occasions, President Xi Jinping has always held high the flag of peace, development, cooperation and mutual benefit, he has championed the spirit of partnership and has led regional cooperation along multilateralism and mutual consultation. Create the right track to share. Now, faced with the challenge of the common epidemic and the tasks of economic and social recovery and development, we have put our hands on it, we provide Chinese wisdom, we propose to build a new development pattern and establish an open national and international dual cycle that is mutually reinforce. On the one hand, it stimulates the potential of the domestic market and provides countries with broader market opportunities. On the other hand, it further opens the door to helping each other and helping each other in the same boat to promote the establishment of a more just and reasonable international economic governance system. Practice will demonstrate once again that openness is a prerequisite for national progress, and cooperation to meet challenges is the only right option for the international community.
