Xi offers Youth Day greetings
Xi urged authorities, officials and the whole of society to pay attention to youth development and help them build their careers.
The Communist Youth League of China must assume its glorious missions endowed by the Party in uniting and leading its members to make greater contributions to the course of the Party and the country in the new era, he added.
Youth Day commemorates the patriotic campaign that began on May 4, 1919, when a group of Chinese students protested the weak diplomatic response of the then Chinese government to the Treaty of Versailles that imposed unfair treaties on China and undermined the country's sovereignty.
Xi has always paid special attention to the development of younger generations.
In his report to the 19th National Congress of the Party in 2017, he urged the whole Party to care about young people and set the stage for them to excel.
In a speech delivered at a gathering to mark the centenary of the May Fourth Movement in Beijing last year, he said young people should establish a belief in Marxism and a faith in socialism with Chinese characteristics and underscored that patriotism is the spirit that bonds the nation together.
