Li Qiang, the new premier of China, gave his first press briefing in his role and acknowledged that it will be difficult to reach the 5% GDP growth target this year. He also pledged to provide “unswerving” support for the private sector, with measures to ensure fair competition and protect property rights. He spoke about the need for “high-quality development” and echoed Xi Jinping’s efforts to mollify private-sector concerns.
-
Li Qiang’s words were well-received, but some analysts said companies and investors will want to see those words translated into concrete action before they are swayed. He did not propose new and powerful policy initiatives, which means that confidence will not come back immediately.
-
The premier’s remarks were focused on restoring business confidence in the world’s second-largest economy, and shoring up growth to overcome domestic difficulties and diplomatic tensions. He aims to deliver stable prices, create jobs and supply ample housing, in order to get the economy back on track.
-
Mr. Li extended conciliatory remarks towards Washington, appealing for goodwill between China and the US.
-
This came days after Mr. Xi and Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang criticized American-led attempts to encircle China and contain its rise.
-
Mr. Li stated that cooperation between the two countries was possible and that encirclement and suppression was not in anyone’s interest.
-
Since becoming the Communist Party’s second-most senior official in October, Mr. Li has been a leading figure in freeing China from its zero-Covid policy and refocusing the government on economic growth.
-
Some entrepreneurs and political analysts have expressed optimism that Mr. Li could moderate Mr. Xi’s decisions.
-
However, questions remain over how effective an administrator Mr. Li will be.
-
Past premiers have had vast influence over the Chinese economy.
-
However, Mr. Li is stepping into the role with diminished power and prestige due to Mr. Xi’s efforts to centralize decision-making authority.
-
In a televised speech, Chinese President Xi Jinping emphasized his demands for boosting China’s “comprehensive national power” and its national security, with advances in industrial, technological and military capabilities.
-
He also restated his goal of delivering “common prosperity”, which has unnerved some Chinese entrepreneurs and foreign businesses.
-
He is set to become China’s longest-serving head of state since the Communist victory in 1949 after securing his third term in the largely ceremonial presidency on Friday.
-
Premier Li Keqiang is set to take on the job at a challenging time, with the government setting a conservative economic-growth target of “about 5%” for this year.
-
At his annual news conference, Mr. Li fielded questions from the media and expounded on government priorities, though the questions and answers were mostly scripted.
-
He defended China’s record on handling Covid-19, saying the Communist Party saved lives and ensured economic order with firm measures and timely adjustments to its pandemic response.
-
He also repeated Mr. Xi’s declaration of a “major, decisive victory” over the virus.
-
Mr. Li’s briefing was flanked by his four deputies, including Executive Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang and Vice Premier He Lifeng, both top aides to Mr. Xi.
-
The Communist Party is expected to soon release details about its plan to restructure some internal agencies.
-
