Part 4/10:
In a strategic push to bolster international confidence, General Secretary Xi Jinping recently addressed over 40 global business leaders in Beijing. During this address, Xi positioned China as the champion of global trade, subtly criticizing certain nations for "weaponizing trade," a clear reference to U.S. policies.
These remarks were made at significant economic forums, including the China Development Forum and the Boao Forum for Asia. The notion of China as a stabilizing force amidst an unpredictable global economic climate is particularly salient as U.S. President Donald Trump prepares to impose new tariffs, causing unease for international businesses reliant on global supply chains.
