The 15th World Socialism Forum, hosted by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS), was held on Monday and Tuesday in Beijing. More than 90 foreign participants, including internationally influential Marxist scholars and foreign diplomats in China, gathered to discuss the forum's theme: "At the Crossroads of World History: The Choice of All Nations."

During the forum, CGTN spoke with some foreign political party leaders to gain their insights on China's blueprint for economic and social development over the next five years and the country's modernization drive.
