The article points out that in the long run, China's unique advantages in responding to external containment are continuing to emerge. The current emphasis on "better coordinating domestic economic work and international economic and trade struggles" is to further activate and integrate these strategic advantages, turn external pressure into internal drive, and shape China's development and security proactive measures. On one hand, starting from safeguarding national sovereignty, security, and development interests, it is necessary to solidly carry out domestic economic work. This requires us to continue to improve our internal strength, focus on expanding domestic demand, optimizing industrial structure, accelerating the development of new productive forces, continuously strengthening the economic foundation, and using the certainty of high-quality development to respond to the uncertainty of the external environment's rapid changes. On the other hand, efforts should be made to actively shape an external environment that is beneficial to domestic development. In international economic and trade cooperation, steadily promote institutionalized openness, deepen trade and investment integration, cultivate digital trade and green trade, promote the high-quality development of the Belt and Road initiative, deeply participate in the reform of the global economic governance system, and strive for strategic initiative in a complex game. This coordinated train of thought not only prevents following the tide, but also avoids isolation and closure, helping to build a virtuous development pattern that is stable internally and promoted externally.
