The president said international rules should be jointly written by all countries, and the fruits of development should be shared by all.

China would like to work with other countries to build a community with a shared future for mankind, Xi said.

The Belt and Road Initiative, put forward five years ago, has benefited the people of countries along the routes, Xi said, adding that the initiative is not a solo performance by a single country but a symphony of all those nations.

The president said China encourages international companies to cooperate with Chinese enterprises to achieve win-win outcomes.

In his speech, Xi also highlighted the importance of innovation-driven development and green development.
