Chinese President Xi Jinping told an international political summit on Tuesday that China’s modernisation had proven itself as a viable alternative to the Western system of governance and Beijing was willing to share its experiences with other countries.
“History and practice have proven and will further demonstrate that this path [by China] is the right and correct one … and we will continue our journey on this bright avenue both for ourselves and for the benefit of the world,” Xi said at the World Political Parties Summit via a video link from Beijing.
“There is no one-size-fits-all model for modernisation, and countries must find whatever is best for them.
