General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party Central Committee Xi Jinping held a meeting dedicated to the fight against the coronavirus and the resumption of the country’s economy, the Xinhua News Agency reported.
At the meeting it was noted that in general China has dealt successfully with the situation related to the spread of COVID-19, but new difficulties have arisen. New problems are caused by the fact that the country has to take restrictive measures to prevent the import of infection to China from other countries. These measures constrain the growth of the country’s economy.
Xi Jinping urged those gathered to be prepared for long-term changes in the world caused by the spread of the novel coronavirus. According to the Chinese leader, the actions of authorities and nation should be doubled in the field of socio-economic development.
“The meeting participants agreed that efforts should be made to increase the overall dynamics of growing demand and supply by stimulating greater domestic consumption and accelerating investment and construction projects,” the agency reports. The authorities’ actions will also be aimed at improving the social protection of the most needy citizens.
