“今日之中国,不仅是中国之中国,而且是亚洲之中国、世界之中国。未来之中国,必将以更加开放的姿态拥抱世界、以更有活力的文明成就贡献世界。”
--习近平
China today is more than the country itself; it is very much a part of Asia and the world. In the time to come, China will open its arms wider to embrace the world and contribute the dynamic achievements of Chinese civilization to a better world in the future.
