Special Address by He Lifeng, Vice-Premier of China
He Lifeng argued that tariff and trade wars fragment the world economy, urging support for free trade, multilateralism, WTO-centered rules, and equal consultation. He positioned China as both “the world’s factory” and an expanding market, citing 5.4% average annual growth over five years and pledging to boost domestic demand, imports, and cooperation.
