With regard to trends,the structure of China’s foreign trade will not undergo fundamental changes in the short term,but in the long run will be transformed in line with restructuring of the growth pattern.展开更多

In its role as responsible major power, China achieved fruitful results in building generally stable major-country relationships for balanced development. It remains actively involved in hotspot issues in its surrounding area, with Korea, India and the South China Sea especially, to defuse tension. Amid a diminished willingness of many countries to participate in serious global problems, and with difficulties facing multilateral regimes, China was proactive, holding multilateral summits and hosting diplomacy platforms to cope with worldwide challenges and to gather international consensus on safeguarding world peace and seeking common development. The 19th Party Congress gained unprecedented international attention. Socialism with Chinese characteristics has taken on a new look, and China's diplomacy will continue progressing toward a favorable external environment for the country's development.展开更多

It is not the primary objective of this paper to discuss the benefits and effects of trade or WTO membership as such. Rather, the focus is on how the growth of a country (either China or any other country) may increase the benefits of its trading partners. In particular, which countries/regions will benefit more from the growth of China? And from the growth of which countries/regions will China benefit more?Greater openness increases efficiency and productiv-展开更多
