Comments by Chinese premier Li Keqiang via state radio

  • Confident to achieve economic growth targets this year
  • Says that economy faces increasing downward pressure
  • Says will take targeted measures to prevent big swings in economic growth

Nothing more from Li so far on the day. For some context, China is still targeting a 6.5% GDP growth for this year and so far they still look on track to reach that target despite growing tensions in the trade dispute with the US.
