Foreign Ministry Spokesperson: China's economic vitality will continue to be externally released.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jianri stated that, since the beginning of this year, China's economy has maintained overall stability and steady progress, with vitality and resilience being prominently displayed. With a series of policies working in concert, China's economic vitality will continue to be unleashed externally.
At the regular press conference, a journalist asked: Recently, the Chinese government has rolled out a package of incremental policies to support the expansion of domestic demand and boost investment and consumption, garnering widespread attention from the international community. Singapore's Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew believes that the measures introduced by the Chinese government help enhance confidence and demand. Michael Schumann, Chairman of the Association for the Promotion of Economic Development and Foreign Trade of the Federal Republic of Germany, stated that the package of incremental policies has played a crucial role in strengthening market confidence, and China's economic growth is of great significance to the global market. Could the spokesperson comment on this?
Lin Jian said that since the beginning of this year, China's economy has maintained overall stability and steady progress, with vitality and resilience prominently demonstrated. In the first three quarters, China's trade volume with multiple countries and regions has increased, with total import and export volume reaching a new high. The growth rate of China's GDP ranks among the top in the world's major economies, once again illustrating that the fundamental trend of China's long-term economic improvement remains unchanged.
"In recent times, the Chinese government has actively introduced a package of incremental policies across multiple departments, further unleashing the potential for economic growth, stimulating consumer spending and investment enthusiasm, and boosting international confidence in China's development," said Lin Jian. Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, UBS, and other international financial institutions have raised their expectations for China's economic growth this year. In a recent survey of over a hundred Swiss enterprises, business decision-makers generally expressed confidence in their operations in China, with nearly half listing China as one of their top three investment destinations.
Lin Jian noted that the positive trend of China's economy in terms of "stability" and "progress" also injects stability into the global economic recovery. By advancing high-quality development and expanding high-level openness, China's interaction with the world has become more robust and powerful; as a series of policies coordinate their efforts, China's economic vitality will continue to be released externally.
"We will continue to respond to the international community's expectation of 'betting on China' and the enthusiasm of enterprises from various countries to 'invest in China' with concrete actions, bringing new momentum and opportunities to global economic development," said Lin Jian.
