Xi reaches out to non-Communist parties for report

President Xi Jinping called on the country's non-Communist parties to make joint efforts with the Communist Party of China to work toward the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

The CPC will enhance cooperation with all democratic parties, strengthen and develop a united front of patriotism, collect the wisdom and capacity of the people from all walks of life, and develop the creativity of the whole society to achieve the goal of national rejuvenation, Xi said.
