Think tank hosts talks on two sessions
US experts gathered at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, or CSIS, on Monday to discuss China's ongoing two sessions. The two sessions, the annual gatherings of the National People's Congress and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, serve as a critical platform for China's leadership to outline its agenda. Scott Kennedy, CSIS senior adviser and trustee chair in Chinese business and economics, said that economic recovery would dominate the two sessions' agenda. Beyond the main sessions, Hart highlighted Foreign Minister Wang Yi's news conference as critical for gauging China's foreign policy stance, particularly on US-China tensions and trade disputes. Ilaria Mazzocco, deputy director and senior fellow with the CSIS trustee chair in Chinese business and economics, talked mainly about China's climate and technology goals.
