Openness and cooperation for win-win economic progress.

The focus of a new round of discussions on China engaging with the world.

Chinese Premier Li Keqiang's dialogue brought together heads of six major international economic and finance organizations.

LI KEQIANG CHINESE PREMIER "The world is facing a complicated economic and financial situation as China reaches 40 years of reform and opening up. The international and domestic situations have made this meeting all the more worthwhile."

Premier Li says China wants to seek common interests with other countries and contribute to a healthy world economy.

Following the strides of the last four decades, China aims to open its market to the world even wider, while firmly upholding a multilateral trading system.

ZHAO YUNFEI BEIJING "The dialogue between the Chinese Premier and top international financial figures is held once a year, but the timing this year is quite special. China's international import expo coincides with the U.S. provoking a trade war with much of the rest of the world. At the 1+6 round table, participants are discussing ways to pursue an open world economy."
