On the leaders of the Group of Twenty Seoul summit, Hu said leaders of the Group of Twenty summit to jointly cope with the international community an effective mechanism for the international financial crisis, to promote international economic cooperation and promote world economic recovery has played an important role. The world economy is slowly recovering, but foundation is not solid, the process is not balanced, there is a big uncertainty. Out of the shadow of the international financial crisis, and promote strong economic growth in the world still faces serious challenges. Will be held in Seoul, Korea should focus on the summit remain united and solve the international financial crisis caused by fundamental problems, the strengthening of world economic recovery. 4 major problems can be caught. First, continue a spirit of solidarity and the principle of mutual benefit to strengthen the macroeconomic policy coordination, issued to the market together the Group of Twenty members of the major challenges the world economy deal with the positive signal, boost market confidence, strengthening world economic recovery. Second, reform of the international financial system, strengthen the international financial market regulation, increase in emerging market countries and developing countries in international financial institutions, the voice and representation.

China's exchange rate policy is consistent and responsible. China has been steadily advancing the reform of RMB exchange rate formation mechanism. China will follow the initiative, controllability and gradual, we should improve the managed floating exchange rate system, market supply and demand play a greater role in enhancing the flexibility of RMB exchange rate to maintain a reasonable and balanced level in the basic stability. China's economy maintained steady and fast growth of world economic recovery and long-term development of great significance.

On China's development path and direction of development, Hu said the Chinese nation has a history of 5,000 years of civilization, created a splendid culture, modern times has experienced a tortuous history of the process difficult. 61 years of New China, especially the reform and opening up 32 years, the Chinese people united as one, work hard, have won worldwide recognition of the achievements of people's lives improved significantly. The results of hard-won struggle for self-improvement comes from the Chinese, from the reform and opening up, even from the Chinese people's choice is consistent with China's development path.

Hu emphasized that China's development is the development of human society, an important part of the process. China's development in France, Portugal and Europe are the opportunities. China will unswervingly follow the road of peaceful development, unswervingly follow a win-win opening strategy, continue to develop friendly cooperation with countries in the world, join hands to promote enduring peace, common prosperity and harmonious world. This is the Chinese government and people to make a strategic choice. This decision is based on China's national conditions, trend of the times, reflecting China's domestic policy and foreign policy unity. China respects the development path of all peoples to choose the right, non-interference in internal affairs, not to impose our own will, committed to the peaceful settlement of international disputes, and pursuing a defensive national defense policy, and never seek hegemony and never engage in expansion.

International order on the construction of the 21st century, Hu said, the second 10 years of the 21st century is about to open, the fate of peoples is closely linked than ever before. States should take a broad mind and strategic vision to build mutual respect and mutual trust politically, mutual benefit and complementary economic relationship between the new countries, promote world multi-polarization and democratization of international relations.

Hu stressed that countries establish a win-win philosophy we advocate, the interests of their people with the common interests of all peoples to share the successful experience of a more open attitude towards cooperation. We call on all countries live in harmony, uphold mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality and coordination, the new security concept, with the peaceful settlement of disputes and maintaining world peace and stability. The international community, especially developed countries to increase support and assistance to developing countries to help developing countries achieve the Millennium Development Goals as soon as possible. Developing countries should strengthen dialogue and cooperation with developed countries, to expand global governance in developing countries in the representation, the establishment of a new global partnership for development. I believe that the joint efforts of the international community, in the 21st century will be peace, development and cooperation of the century.

On the cooperation of China and the Lusophone countries, Hu said, China - speaking countries since the establishment of economic and trade cooperation forum, China has become a contact and an important bridge speaking countries and the promotion of common development of all major platforms.
