【知識點】

中國國際進口博覽會，是迄今為止世界上第一個以進口為主題的國家級展會，是國際貿(mào)易發(fā)展史上一大創(chuàng)舉。舉辦中國國際進口博覽會，是中國著眼于推動新一輪高水平對外開放作出的重大決策，是中國主動向世界開放市場的重大舉措。這體現(xiàn)了中國支持多邊貿(mào)易體制、推動發(fā)展自由貿(mào)易的一貫立場，是中國推動建設(shè)開放型世界經(jīng)濟、支持經(jīng)濟全球化的實際行動。
The CIIE is the world’s first import expo held at the national level, an innovation in the history of global trade. It is an important decision made by China to pursue a new round of high-level opening-up, and is China’s major initiative to still widen market access to the rest of the world. It demonstrates China’s consistent position of supporting the multilateral trading system and promoting free trade. It is a concrete action by China to advance an open world economy and support economic globalization.
