(Adnkronos) – The work of the ‘Two Sessions’ (‘Lianghui’), the annual sessions of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and the National People’s Assembly, kicks off in China. The annual session of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference has begun in Beijing, with thousands of delegates. Chinese leader Xi Jinping, in power since 2012, attended the opening in the Great Hall of the People, the official Xinhua news agency reported. Tomorrow it will be the turn of the National People’s Assembly. For the Asian giant it is the political event of the year.
Observers await the announcement on GDP growth targets for the current year, policies to stimulate consumption and market reaction. All in the midst of slowing domestic demand, with a real estate market that offers no respite, not to mention growing tensions with the new Trump administration, starting with duties and counter-duties.
