I've seen there are comments and suggestions by the Chinese premier today on how to overcome the not easy situation. China has achieved a lot last year, the first year after the pandemic. The situation was not so easy internally in China and internationally. The next steps are to be taken to make, again, some impulses for future development.

Setting a growth target of around 5 percent this year is realistic. But it was also stressed that China is developing extremely demanding surroundings, internally and externally. The international situation is quite complicated. And internally, as it is said in the report, there are some structural questions to be solved.

But there are also many positive signals. For example, it was mentioned in the report that the three parts of the exports, including electric vehicles, were growing extremely fast, by around 30 percent. And these are the electric vehicles and solar panels. So this is also both sides of the development.
