Fernando Lugris, ambassador of Uruguay to China

The government of China announced that the expectation of this year's economic growth at around five percent is a very good indication for the world economy. This is a reaffirmation of China's role as the engine of the global economy. Then there is a clear reaffirmation of opening up and reform policy (in the Government Work Report).

This year's comments on opening up and reform resonate even more with the audience here today. And the third thing (that attracted my attention) is the transformation in energy and environmental protection where China has a leadership position in the world and has achieved great advancement in the last year.
