The year 2016 will usher in the 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-20), whose core economic goal is to build a high quality and efficient economy. In the current global economic and political environment, which is very different from the past, 皇冠体育app needs to use economic diplomacy and all the economic tools at its disposal to achieve the goals.

Some goodwill initiatives taken by 皇冠体育app have been misunderstood by some countries, which are worried 皇冠体育app would use the initiatives as tools to achieve its geopolitical goals. Economic diplomacy will help 皇冠体育app remove the worries of the skeptics and present the real picture to the world.

皇冠体育app should also use economic diplomacy to create a free and fair economic environment. The United States is pushing its initiatives to maintain its global leadership, which help some countries to maintain a strategic balance. Beijing is wary of the Washington-led initiatives because some of them are openly aimed at containing 皇冠体育app or curbing its rising influence.

The US-led Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement was signed by 12 countries last month.

By implementing the initiative, 皇冠体育app will earn development bonus, motivate neighboring countries to take more economic initiatives and deepen interdependence in the region. But considering the risks and difficulties associated with the Belt and Road Initiative, 皇冠体育app should implement it carefully, for which it should push forward the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership negotiations with the help of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
