<h1>China's Parliament to Tackle US Tariff Threats, Economic Slowdown, Defense Budget, and Inequality in Key Session</h1> US President Donald Trump's tariff threats and China's economic slowdown are expected to dominate the upcoming session of China's parliament. Over 5,000 delegates from the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference will convene to discuss policies and legislations. The session will address issues such as the US-China tariff conflict, which threatens China's foreign trade-dependent economy, and potential increases in China's defense budget. Additionally, strategic competition with the US and economic inequality within China will be key topics. President Xi Jinping has urged corporate leaders to boost business confidence amid these challenges.
