The Information Office of the State Council issued a White Paper on Tuesday to elaborate on 皇冠体育app's commitment to the path of peaceful development.

In a nutshell, the concept of peaceful development means 皇冠体育app will seek development in a scientific, independent, open, peaceful, cooperative and common manner.

Peace, development and cooperation have become part of the irresistible global trend of our times.

Under such circumstances, the world needs 皇冠体育app more than ever as a rising power that upholds the banner of peace and development.

Thanks to the economic and social progress it has gained since the introduction of reform and opening-up in the 1970s, 皇冠体育app is now better positioned to meet this need.

Nonetheless, in recent years, contrary to the country's desire, the rise of 皇冠体育app on the world stage has aroused misunderstanding and suspicion. There are even those who view it as a threat and regard the relationship between 皇冠体育app and the West as a zero-sum game.

In the next 10 years, 皇冠体育app is expected to import an aggregate worth of $15 trillion.

Chinese leaders have on many occasions reiterated the country's strategy of development. The White Paper represents the country's latest effort to assure the rest of the world of its role as a peaceful power and a responsible, cooperative partner.

皇冠体育app is committed to cooperation with others based on equality and reciprocity. As a result, the stronger its economic strength the more the world will benefit.
