Li Baodong said that according to the usual practice, the forum will hold the 2023 annual meeting in Boao, Hainan at the end of March, as usual, and invite leaders from various countries, government officials, heads of international organizations, business representatives, experts and scholars, including the host country China. He and the media attended the meeting to discuss the development plans of Asia and the world after the epidemic.
The exact date of the annual meeting will be announced as soon as it is determined.
The current COVID-19 epidemic is still ongoing, but with the joint efforts of the international community, the world is expected to emerge from the haze of the epidemic as soon as possible.
The 2023 annual meeting of the forum will be held offline while doing a good job in epidemic prevention.
This year's annual meeting plans to set up four topics of "development and inclusiveness", "governance and security", "regional and global" and "present and future", aiming to better promote rational discussions among all parties about their own interests and common interests, short-term interests and long-term interests, so as to promote international cooperation and build consensus on development.
