In this CGTN special - China Agenda – Juliet Mann and her guests consider what this year's Two Sessions mean for China, and the rest of the world.

Tech innovation, domestic consumption and promoting the private sector are all key themes for this year's event - but everyone will be watching one of the largest political gatherings on earth particularly closely this year, as China's next five-year plan - the 15th - is agreed.

On this special program, we hear from the former President of Greece, Prokopis Pavlopoulos, Canada's former Ambassador to China, Dominic Barton, Former UN Under-Secretary-General, Fabrizio Hochschild, Margit Molnar, Head of the China Desk at the OECD, and Qian Jun, Professor of Finance and Executive Dean at Fudan University's International School of Finance.
