Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, has called for the continuous improvement of the nation's border, coastal and air defense systems.
Xi, who is also Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, said on Tuesday that the modernization of the border, coastal and air defense systems is an inherent requirement of the overall modernization of China's national defense and armed forces, and an essential measure to safeguard the country's development and rejuvenation.
He said that border, coastal and air defense systems are important symbols of national sovereignty, major guardians of national security and a crucial foundation of national development, adding that the Party always attaches great importance to these.
Xi made the remarks at a study session of the Political Bureau of the 20th CPC Central Committee on Tuesday.
Since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, the Party has implemented a series of related reforms and measures. It has effectively protected the country's sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, and also ensured national security and a strategic advantage, said the general secretary.
