The Chinese premier said: "I look forward to working with other leaders of SCO member states to reaffirm the Shanghai Spirit, expand mutual openness, raise the level of trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, advance regional economic integration, and build an open and inclusive platform for mutually beneficial cooperation."

Noting that the world is faced with complex changes, rising protectionism and unilateralism, and mounting downward pressure on the global economy and trade, Li said openness today requires the courage to rise above barriers such as various restrictions and prejudices.

He said that it is China's hope to work with all SCO member states to firmly uphold the UN-centered international system and the WTO-centered multilateral trading system, give strong support to multilateralism and free trade, and promote open cooperation between the SCO and the rest of the world.

"We stand ready to work with Uzbekistan, other SCO member states and the rest of the world to pursue greater openness and better achieve common development," he added.
