President continues with busy diplomatic agenda

President Xi Jinping said on Wednesday that China is willing to bolster coordination and cooperation with all other nations to send a message of solidarity and unity in fighting COVID-19 and to shore up global confidence.

Xi made the remark in a telephone conversation with German Chancellor Angela Merkel ahead of the G20 special summit on the pandemic.

He urged more coordinated macroeconomic policies between different countries to stabilize markets, growth and employment and to guarantee public well-being while ensuring the openness, stability and security of global supply chains.
