Forum stresses embracing more open global economy

Li Tianran, consul general of the Chinese Consulate-General in Osaka, expected the Japanese presidency to promote WTO reform at the summit and steer G20 members toward taking concrete action to strengthen global growth.

A report previewing policy of the G20 Osaka Summit was jointly issued by China Daily's think tank China Watch Institute and the Institute of World Economics and Politics under the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences on Tuesday in Osaka.

It reaffirmed the significance of "building an open global economy"－a concept that was first proposed by President Xi in 2013 when he attended the G20 St. Petersburg Summit.
