China for peaceful Asia-Pacific

At the 2013 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting in Bali, Indonesia, President Xi Jinping's speech focused on trade and the importance of trade being cooperative and inclusive in the Asia-Pacific region. China seems to be the leader of genuine win-win free trade and does not attach political strings to its economic relations.

President Xi also spoke about the importance of maintaining peace in the region and beyond. The Asia-Pacific is a calm and peaceful region, and China has proved to be a country that always seeks sensible diplomatic solutions to conflicts.
