Chinese President Xi Jinping doubled down on China's economic resilience this week, calling the nation the 'biggest engine' of global growth. During talks with leaders from the World Bank, IMF, WTO, and New Development Bank in Beijing, Xi emphasized China's 'full confidence' in hitting its 2024 targets while pushing for stronger international partnerships. 🌱
'The world needs teamwork more than ever,' Xi declared, highlighting challenges like rising protectionism and tech competition. He pitched China's vision for a 'multi-polar world' powered by AI innovation, green energy, and open trade—with Beijing ready to 'share development dividends.' 📊
Global economic heavyweights praised China's 30% contribution to recent worldwide growth. IMF leaders also nodded to China's push for high-tech collaboration and the Belt and Road Initiative's role in boosting developing nations. 🌐
But Xi didn’t shy from addressing tensions: 'Trade wars are lose-lose scenarios,' he warned, urging the U.S. to 'manage differences' through dialogue. With China's economy now in 'high-quality development' mode, Xi teased more market reforms and a 'world-class business environment' to attract global partners. 💼
