Xi Jinping's reply to the foreign youth representatives of the "International Youth Leaders Dialogue" project

Foreign youth representatives of the "International Youth Leaders Dialogue" project:

  Hello!

The letter is received.

You are all studying, working and living in China. I am very happy to have the opportunity to visit various places in depth this time, and to deepen my knowledge and understanding of China.

  As you mentioned in your letter, the Chinese people rely on their wisdom and sweat to build rich and beautiful homes on the land of China, create a colorful culture, and realize the dream of a well-off life.

To be happy is to struggle.

China has a vast territory and a large population. In order to develop and rejuvenate, the most important thing is to base itself on its own national conditions.

Practice has shown that the new path of Chinese-style modernization will become wider and wider, and it will better develop itself and benefit the world.

  Youth is always accompanied by dreams.

The Communist Party of China has gone through a century of struggle, but our original aspirations and dreams have become stronger over time.

A hundred years is exactly the glory of prosperity.

On the new journey, we will continue to work tirelessly to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and to promote the development and progress of mankind.

We welcome more international youths to come to China for exchanges, and hope that Chinese and foreign youths will enhance mutual understanding, gain friendship and grow together through mutual learning, and contribute their youth to the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.

  I wish you all the best in China!

General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, President Xi Jinping
