What happened
Chinese President Xi Jinping stated that China's initiative to expand imports is a future-oriented step toward embracing the world and promoting common development. This strategy is outlined in the context of the Outline of the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026–2030). Officials also pushed back against the 'China Shock 2.0' narrative, arguing that import growth is outpacing export growth and that the focus on unilateral export shocks is inaccurate.
