Li Qiang attended the New Global Financing Compact Summit and delivered a speech
On the morning of June 23, local time, Premier Li Qiang attended the closing ceremony of the New Global Financing Compact Summit in Paris and delivered a speech. French President Emmanuel Macron presided over the meeting, which was attended by more than 60 heads of state and government and heads of major international organizations.

Li Qiang said that China has always attached great importance to global development and governance issues. In recent years, President Xi Jinping has put forward the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative and the Global Civilization Initiative, which have been widely responded to by the international community. As an important engine of the global economy, China has injected sustained impetus into the development of the world economy. No matter how the world changes, China will unswervingly promote high-quality development, expand high-level opening-up, and align with high-standard international economic and trade rules, so that countries around the world can share the opportunities of China's development. As a responsible major country in the world, China earnestly implements the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and its Paris Agreement, and has made great efforts to address climate change. As a contributor to global development, China has provided a strong impetus to international poverty alleviation and development, and has made great contributions.
Li Qiang pointed out that in the face of the global development financing gap, China calls on the international community to cooperate sincerely and work together to solve the problems of developing countries, especially fragile countries. Li Qiang put forward a three-point proposal in this regard: First, firmly promote the reform of global financial governance and create a stable financing environment for developing countries. China stands ready to work with all parties to build a fair and efficient global financial governance pattern and strengthen international macroeconomic policy coordination. The International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and other international financial institutions should implement the G20 leaders' consensus, complete a new round of quota and voting rights reforms, and enhance the voice of emerging market countries and developing countries. Second, we need to firmly build a global partnership for development and provide more resources for development for developing countries. The developed countries should earnestly fulfill their pledges to provide aid and funds to developing countries. Developing countries should enhance their capacity for independent development. China will continue to take pragmatic measures to provide various forms of support to other developing countries to the best of its ability. Third, we should resolutely promote economic globalization and free trade and inject new growth impetus into developing countries. China is ready to work with the international community to promote trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, and take a clear stand against trade protectionism and various forms of "decoupling and breaking chains".
Li Qiang stressed that in a world full of disputes and uncertainties, China and the EU should seek common ground while reserving differences, converge on differences and overcome differences, promote more creative cooperation, respond to the uncertainty of the international situation with the stability of China-EU relations, and jointly promote sustainable development of mankind.
The leaders said that all parties should work together to reduce global inequality and poverty, jointly address climate change, protect biodiversity, solve the debt problem of developing countries, and promote the sustainable development of the world. We need to uphold multilateralism, fully respect the national conditions of all countries, promote poverty reduction, development and environmental protection in a coordinated manner, and promote common prosperity. It is necessary to improve global economic governance, share responsibilities fairly, and promote cooperation between multilateral development banks and commercial creditors to better meet the development financing needs of developing countries. The leaders of the participating developing countries called on the developed countries to earnestly implement their commitments to provide assistance and finance to developing countries.
