BEIJING (Reuters) -China is confident in its ability to maintain sustained economic growth and continue supporting global development, Premier Li Qiang told the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Friday.
Li criticised unilateral and protectionist measures such as tariffs, saying they were contributing to a global economic slowdown.
He called for closer international cooperation.
Describing China as a “responsible participant” in tackling global challenges, Li said the country remained committed to green and low-carbon development.
