BEIJING, May 9 (Xinhua) — China remains committed to advancing the accession process to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), the Ministry of Commerce said.
Speaking at a regular press conference of the ministry on Thursday, spokesman He Yadong noted that since applying to join the CPTPP in September 2021, China has conducted an in-depth analysis of the provisions of this agreement, communicated with its participants at various levels and through various channels, and organized relevant experiments in those pilot free trade zones and free trade ports that have the necessary conditions.
“All this demonstrates the determination, ability and concrete actions of the Chinese side in ensuring compliance with the high standards stipulated by the agreement,” He Yadong said.
“No matter how the international situation changes,” he continued, “China will only open its doors wider to the outside world.” The country will steadily expand its institutional openness, take the initiative in working to ensure compliance with high-level international trade and economic rules, and actively advance the process of joining the CPTPP, the official representative of the Ministry of Commerce concluded. -0-
