BEIJING (Xinhua): With China's annual legislative and political consultative sessions, known as the "two sessions," underway in Beijing, foreign envoys and international journalists are closely watching the event for signals on the world's second-largest economy's development trajectory and its global implications.

They describe the gathering, during which the draft outline of the country's 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030) is being examined, as a crucial window into China's policy direction and a source of stability in an uncertain world.
