"We are against trade protectionism and there are no protectionist measures in our economic stimulus plans," Liu said.

Liu cautioned against the rise of protectionism in various forms as the world strove to address the impact of the financial crisis and maintain economic growth.

"Protectionism may have some effects in the short term, but it is a short-sighted option," he said.
