During Chinese President Xi Jinping’s keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the 2018 Boao Forum for Asia conference, he reiterated China’s stance on globalization and connectivity, in a world where protectionism and isolationism are rising.
Xi also pledged to rebuff efforts to impose barriers to world trade, saying that “China will not abandon its opening-up policy. The door will open even wider.”
In terms of working to create an enduring peace, the president said that China will refrain from seeking dominance in the world and reject the zero-sum game.
