As it happened: China’s ‘two sessions’ 2024 – Premier Li Qiang sets GDP target of around 5% for the year

Quick Glance: Surprise: China Cancels Premier's Annual Press Conference

China announced the discontinuation of the premier's annual press conference, a rare opportunity for questioning top Chinese leaders.

This move suggests a decline in the premier's authority and that of the government bureaucracy, as the Communist Party and leader Xi Jinping consolidate control over the nation's affairs.

During the weeklong meeting of the mainly ceremonial congress starting Tuesday, Li is expected to present an annual report including the government's economic growth target for 2024.

The spokesperson emphasized that China remains open to foreign business and investments, reassuring that recent changes to national security laws are not aimed at normal business, scientific, or academic activities.
