Xi calls on military to help realize 'Chinese Dream, world peace'
President Xi Jinping urged the People's Liberation Army on Sunday to spare no efforts to build itself into a world-class military after he inspected its first field parade in several decades.
Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, said the country is close to its goal of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, so a strong military is badly needed to safeguard the process.
