BEIJING, July 11 (Xinhua) — Closed exclusivity is not an option for China and the country will continue to take practical measures to expand opening up at a high level, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said Friday.
In this way, the diplomat commented at a regular press briefing on media reports according to which China's visa-free policy shows the world the country's viability, which is the opposite of the recent tightening of visa requirements and the growing trend towards isolation in some countries.
At present, China has unilaterally introduced a visa-free regime for citizens of 47 countries, and visa-free transit for citizens of another 55 countries, Mao Ning recalled, adding that China has consistently made efforts to simplify the visa application procedure, provide one-stop services to those entering the country, and provide those leaving the country with a tax refund immediately after making a purchase. Thus, trips of foreign friends to China have become more comfortable, the diplomat noted.
“Decoupling and disrupting industrial and supply chains, as well as closed exclusivity, are not options for China,” Mao Ning said.
“China will continue to take high-level measures to expand opening-up, share opportunities and create a common future with all countries,” she added. -0-
