What can the world expect from China amid the increasing uncertainties facing globalization?
In sharp contrast to US President Donald Trump's inaugural speech on Jan 20, which centered on the United States and trumpeted protectionism, President Xi Jinping's speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos in January focused on the world and advocated globalization.
Encouraged by the election of Trump who advocates anti-globalization and pro-protectionism, as US president, right-wing forces and populist leaders are trying to consolidate their political positions in several European countries and thus pose a threat to globalization, global governance and multilateral cooperation.
