Meanwhile, the special envoy to the Belt and Road Initiative -- Sir Douglas Flint -- said that China is contributing more to the world's economy. He also said China's role in global governance is more and more important. 

SIR DOUGLAS FLINT BRITISH SPECIAL ENVOY TO BRI "China's role in the global governance institutions is evolving, it's growing. China is taking more of the responsibility that accrues to the second largest economy in the world, the largest nation of the world in terms of population. Its contribution is huge, it's one of the largest markets in the world for the rest of the world, it has tremendous capacity to work with other countries so it is playing more of a role internationally than it has done historically which is reflective of its expanded status."
