  • Chinese President Xi Jinping called on global business leaders to push back against protectionism, seeking to take advantage of growing backlash to rising US tariffs to promote his country as a reliable partner.

The article discusses Chinese President Xi Jinping's efforts to attract global business leaders to invest in China amidst escalating trade tensions with the United States, particularly under former President Donald Trump's administration.
