China's journey with the World Trade Organization (WTO) has been a game-changer – and now the world is reaping the benefits, says Ambassador Li Chenggang. In an exclusive chat with CGTN's Tian Wei, the diplomat highlighted how China's rise aligns with global progress: “As a member of the world community, China follows multilateral rules while sharing development opportunities.”
🌐 Since joining the WTO in 2001, China has transformed from a newcomer to a key player, championing open markets and tech innovation. Li emphasized that globalization isn't a zero-sum game: “When China grows, the world grows too.” From green energy to digital trade, Beijing's partnerships now span 145 countries and regions.
💡 What's next? The ambassador teased major moves at upcoming WTO talks, including reforms to empower developing economies. With 20% of global trade flowing through China, this isn't just diplomacy – it's the pulse of tomorrow's economy.
