The ongoing China International Import Expo (CIIE) shares opportunities and boosts global recovery, say foreign companies and exhibitors. CIIE, hailed as "an innovation in the history of global trade," opened its third edition in Shanghai on Wednesday. As the world's first import-themed national-level expo, the CIIE embodies China's solemn promise to opening-up, and epitomizes its firm commitment to supporting economic globalization and building an open world economy. At a time when the COVID-19 pandemic is still raging on and the world economy is tottering along, China's steadfast promise and practice of opening-up resonate with and buoy up all those dedicated to battling the coronavirus, boosting common development and building a brighter future for humanity.
