In this second 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.

At a time of shifting global dynamics, everyone has been watching one of the world's largest political gatherings particularly closely this year, not least as China's latest five-year-plan was approved. 

From growth targets and plans for technological innovation to employment, social policy, and China's role on the world stage, the decisions made in Beijing at the meetings will shape China's future and its relationship with the global economy.

So what exactly have we learned? Joining Juliet on this special programme are Former President of Slovenia, Danilo Türk, Grzegorz Kołodko, former Deputy Prime Minister of Poland, Patrick Nijs, Former Belgian Ambassador to China, Markus Herrmann Chen, Co-Founder and Managing Director of China Macro Group and Li Haitao, Dean and Dean's Distinguished Chair Professor of Finance at the Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business.
