Chinese President Xi Jinping indicated today that China's cumulative imports of goods will exceed $ 22 trillion over the next 10 years.
He added, during a video message delivered by Xi at the opening ceremony of the China International Import Expo in Shanghai, that the country is speeding up its opening up despite the global Coronavirus pandemic.
It is worth noting that, in a poll conducted by Reuters at the end of September 2020, imports grew by 18.7%, from a year ago, exceeding analysts' expectations of a 13.5% growth and accelerating from 13.3% in August, the increase exceeded even the most optimistic forecasts in the opinion poll of analysts.
