Global Times: Xi to attend G20, APEC to present vision; events show China's devt brings opportunities to world

BEIJING,Nov. 14,2022 -- The Chinese Foreign Ministry on Friday announced that President Xi Jinping will attend the 17th G20 Summit in Indonesia and the 29th APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in Thailand next week,which experts view as a sign of bringing China's ideas on eliminating barriers and coordinating cooperation among economies and bringing new opportunities to the world through opportunities created by its development.

The president will also meet with many world leaders including US President Joe Biden,drawing widespread attention from around the world,reflecting China's increasingly paramount role in regional and global affairs.

The trip will be crucial both for China and the world as it will mark the first trip by the Chinese President following the recent successful conclusion of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC),which has united the Chinese people and set out inspiring development aspirations for both China and the world. It is also the first in-person attendance at the G20 summit and the APEC summit since the outbreak of the COVID pandemic in three years,and the world increasingly turns to China and the broader Asia-Pacific region for stability and prosperity.

China's role

At the invitation of President Joko Widodo of Indonesia,President Xi Jinping will attend the 17th G20 Summit in Bali,Indonesia from November 14 to 17,Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Hua Chunying announced Friday. He will attend the 29th APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in Bangkok,Thailand and visit Thailand from November 17 to 19,Hua said.

Zhao Lijian,another spokesperson from the ministry,said on Friday at a regular press conference that the G20 Bali Summit is the first multilateral summit the top Chinese leader will attend after the successful conclusion of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC),while Xi's attendance at the 29th APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting "is an important act of China's head-of-state diplomacy towards the Asia-Pacific," which "fully shows the high importance China attaches to the Asia-Pacific economic cooperation."

With growing instability and uncertainties in the world economy,regional economic cooperation in the Asia-Pacific is facing new challenges,Zhao said.

As the premier forum for international economic cooperation,the G20 need to strengthen solidarity and cooperation,coordinate macroeconomic policies,and work concertedly for strong,sustainable,inclusive and balanced growth of the world economy,Zhao said.

"APEC is an important platform for economic cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region. President Xi will deliver an important speech at the meeting,expounding China's major propositions on deepening Asia-Pacific cooperation and promoting regional and global economic growth," Zhao added.

Li Haidong,a professor from the Institute of International Relations at the China Foreign Affairs University,told the Global Times on Friday that the G20 Summit,whienech aims to help the world's major economies brainstorm ways to coordinate cooperation,is likely to focus on how to improve the existing multilateral financial and economic system to effectively deal with the economic problems and the tendency for depression.

China hopes to demonstrate at multilateral diplomatic occasions such as the G20 and APEC summits that its development and opening-up,especially after the 20th National Congress of the CPC,will bring more new opportunities to the world,Wang said.

What China has always emphasized is that both the G20 or APEC summits provide a stage to promote the Global Development Initiatives (GDI) put forward by President Xi a year ago,which will benefit the world in a more effective way,Li said.

China-US in spotlight

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying also announced Friday that Xi will hold bilateral meetings with French President Emmanuel Macron,US President Joe Biden,Senegalese President Macky Sall,Argentine President Alberto Fernández,among others,upon request.

It will also be the first in-person encounter between the two leaders since Biden ascended to the White House in 2021.

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said China views and grows its relations with the US in accordance with the three principles of mutual respect,peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation as proposed by President Xi.

The spokesperson also urged the US to work together with China to properly manage differences,advance mutually beneficial cooperation,avoid misunderstanding and miscalculation,and bring China-US relations back to the right track of sound and steady development,which "serves the interests of both sides and meets the expectations of the world."

Before China's announcement,the White House announced the Xi-Biden meeting on Thursday (ET),saying leaders will discuss a range of regional and global issues,as well as efforts to "maintain and deepen lines of communication," responsibly manage competition,and work together on "transnational challenges that affect the international community.

Direct communication between the two leaders can set the most authoritative tone for the direction of bilateral relations at the highest level,Li said,noting that leaders are likely to make more efforts in managing differences,so that countries in the Asia-Pacific region and the world have more reasons to be optimistic about the major global concerns under the influence of China-US relations.
