China Receives Worldwide Attention At Historical Juncture

The draft outline of the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025) for National Economic and Social Development and the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035, which are expected to be reviewed during the two sessions, remain a focus of global attention, and through the two sessions, the world will observe how the country will further advance its high-quality development.

A blueprint of the country's future development is unfolding, as the Communist Party of China (CPC) is embracing its 100th anniversary of the founding this year and China enters the starting year of its 14th Five-Year Plan period.

The international society believes that China, embarking on a new journey to fully build a modern socialist country, will inject more momentum for win-win cooperation into the world.

The two sessions offer an insight into China's experiences of economic and social development.

After five years of ceaseless efforts, China has reached the major goals set in its 13th FiveYear Plan, made remarkable historic achievements in building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, and achieved a comprehensive victory in poverty alleviation.
