China’s Xi calls for greater economic integration and warns against decoupling

President Xi Jinping called for greater global economic integration and warned against decoupling while calling on the US and its allies to avoid "bossing others around."

"International affairs should be conducted by way of negotiations and discussions, and the future destiny of the world should be decided by all countries," Mr Xi said on Tuesday at the Boao Forum on Asia, without naming the US specifically. "One or a few countries shouldn't impose their rules on others, and the world shouldn't be led on by the unilateralism of a few countries."
