China stands ready to strengthen communication with other countries and jointly enrich the paths toward modernization, a senior Communist Party of China (CPC) official said on Saturday.
Li Shulei, a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and head of the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee, made the remarks at a parallel session of the fifth Hongqiao International Economic Forum in Beijing.
Li said that the important speech delivered by President Xi Jinping at the opening ceremony of the fifth China International Import Expo strongly expressed the nation's unwavering pledge to further expand its opening up and its sincerity to share development opportunities with the rest of the world.
Over the past decade, China has pursued its development through enhancing exchange with the rest of the world, thus making contribution to global development, Li said.
China will stand firm in its efforts to improve people's wellbeing, promote high-quality development, advance high-standard opening up, take the path of peaceful development, inject more vitality into common development of all countries, and contribute to global peace and stability, he said.
The parallel session was held by the State Council Information Office, with the theme of new prospects for China and new opportunities for the world. More than 200 Chinese and foreign representatives from nearly 60 countries and regions attended the session.
