What do world leaders say about Chinese President Xi Jinping? Many describe his leadership as one defined by vision, long-term thinking, and a commitment to global development and cooperation.

As the Communist Party of China marks its 105th anniversary, Leaders Talk revisits conversations with presidents, prime ministers, and global policymakers who have shared their perspectives on President Xi Jinping's leadership and China's role in the world.

They reflect on China's modernization, reform, and growing international engagement. Many also highlight initiatives proposed under President Xi's leadership, including the Belt and Road Initiative, the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, and the Global Civilization Initiative, as well as the vision of building a community with a shared future for humanity.

Together, these ideas have shaped global discussions on development, connectivity, cooperation, and dialogue.
