Li Qiang pointed out in the government work report that the supporting conditions and basic trends for our country's long-term economic growth have not changed, and the institutional advantages and major country advantages continue to be increasingly evident.

In the government work report on the 5th, Premier Li Qiang of the State Council pointed out that while fully affirming the achievements, we are also clearly aware of the difficulties and challenges we face. The impact of changes in the external environment has deepened; geopolitical risks continue to rise; momentum in the world economy remains weak; multilateralism and free trade have been severely affected. There are still many old problems and new challenges in China’s economic development and transition. The difficulties must not be overlooked, and confidence must be firm. The supporting conditions and fundamental trend that have long favored China’s economy continuing to perform well have not changed; our institutional advantages and the advantages of a major country continue to stand out. Having been tested and tempered by storms and rough weather, our will is stronger and our steps more resolute. As long as we make full and proper use of our advantages and handle challenges in a prudent manner, China’s development prospects will certainly be even more promising! (Xinhua News Agency)
