INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Chinese Ambassador to the United Kingdom Zheng Zeguang has called on business communities in both countries to seize the opportunities
presented by China's continued stable development.Zheng made the statement on Monday at an event hosted in London on the Two Sessions & the
annual meetings of the National People's Congress, China's top legislature, and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political
Consultative Conference.Zheng said this year's Two Sessions showed the world that China is committed to advancing the country's
modernization with high-quality development
China will firmly act as an "enabler," providing "more stability and positive energy for the world," in areas such as economic development,
sci-tech innovation, green transition and global peace and stability, he added.The Two Sessions also showed the success of China's political
system, the ambassador stressed, adding that it is "the secret behind the two miracles of rapid economic development and long-term social
stability" in China.Highlighting the importance of a stable and constructive China-UK relationship in a world full of challenges, the
ambassador called on both sides to maintain the momentum of high-level exchanges, implement the outcomes of previous dialogues and
strengthen cooperation while properly handling differences between the two countries.Sherard Cowper-Coles, chairman of the China-Britain
Business Council, said that a Chinese government report released during the Two Sessions calls for tackling serious challenges in a coherent
and disciplined way."It talks about increasing consumption, putting more money in the pockets of the Chinese people, stimulating innovation
and opening China up more to investment, and inviting visitors around the world not just commercial businesses, but the tourists and
students as well, all very very important," Cowper-Coles said.Michael Mainelli, former Lord Mayor of the City of London, said it was a
pivotal moment for the UK in its relationship with China and the global community
He said the sessions "have set the stage for policies that will influence not only China's trajectory, but also its interactions with the
world."As a global financial and technology center, London looks forward to strengthening cooperation with China in finance, green finance,
artificial intelligence and other fields, Mainelli said.
