China's economy while addressing the annual
session of the National People's Congress.
The plan includes increased spending on
developing advanced technology, fortifying
the military and other longstanding goals.
According to Li, the Chineses government
would continue with a "pro-active fiscal
policy and prudent monetary policy.”.
The plan looks to boost growth by issuing
long-term bonds over several years,
beginning with about $139 billion in 2024.
Those bonds would be used to
implement "major national strategies"
and boost security "in key areas.".
The plans also include a "new development model"
aimed at easing a prolonged real estate slump
by building government-subsidized housing.
The foundation for China’s sustained
economic recovery is not yet stable,
with insufficient effective demand,
overcapacity in some industries,
weak social expectations, and still
many risks and hidden dangers, Li Qiang, Chinese Premier, via Associated Press.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing on Friday as he wrapped up a three-day visit to China dominated by contentious issues and warnings from his hosts of another “downward spiral” in relations. The two met Friday afternoon local time at the Great Hall of the People, an ornate and cavernous building next to Tiananmen Square. Blinken told Xi that President Joe Biden had sent him to China to “seek to deepen areas of cooperation as well as to responsibly manage the differences that we have.” Xi noted that this year is the 45th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and China, and said the two countries “should be partners rather than adversaries.”

Chinese President Xi Jinping conveyed to former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou on Wednesday that external interference would not impede the "family reunion" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. He emphasised that all issues are open for discussion. Since the Republic of China government retreated to Taiwan in 1949 following a civil war loss to Mao Zedong's communists, no sitting Taiwanese leader has visited China. However, Ma, who served as president from 2008 to 2016, broke this pattern last year, marking the first visit by a former Taiwanese leader to China. This visit, Ma's second, occurs amid heightened military tensions in the region.
