Li Qiang is china’s new premier. Xi Jinping nominated li qing during the ongoing annual meeting of china's rubber-stamp parliament. As premier, li qiang will manage the world's second-largest economy. 63-year-old li qing is a close ally of xi jinping and served as his chief of staff between 2004 and 2007. Back then, xi Jinping was the provincial party secretary of eastern china's Zhejiang province. The incoming premier is widely perceived to be pragmatic and business-friendly. The Chinese economy is still emerging from the coronavirus pandemic. Weak global demand for exports, lingering u.S.
