Hey there, global news enthusiasts! 🌍 China's got some big moves happening, and we're here to spill the tea! 🍵
On Tuesday, in the bustling city of Geneva, China held a special meeting ahead of the World Trade Organization's (WTO) ninth trade policy review. The goal? To help WTO members get the inside scoop on China's economic and trade policies. 🧐
Experts and scholars from China, along with reps from foreign-funded businesses in the country, gathered to share how China is pushing for high-quality development and opening up its economy. They chatted about new measures like developing \"new quality productive forces,\" building a unified national market, and boosting the private sector. 🚀
Over 100 participants from the WTO secretariat, member countries and regions, international organizations, and the media joined in the convo. Talk about a packed house! 🏠
Li Chenggang, China's permanent representative to the WTO, emphasized how important these trade policy reviews are. He said they're not just about keeping tabs on policies, but also about building understanding and trust—key for the WTO to run smoothly. 🤝
This was actually the first time China hosted such a side event before a trade policy review. Cool, right? 😎
Alexander Keck, the WTO's chief of Global Economic Analysis, gave props to China for its positive and open attitude. He noted that this event helped everyone get a deeper understanding of China's economic and trade policies, building trust and clearing up any doubts. 💡
So what's next? China's ninth policy review is happening from July 17 to July 19. We'll be keeping an eye out for more updates! 👀
Stay tuned, amigos! ✌️
