President of the New Development Bank: In a highly uncertain environment, fiscal and monetary policy tools need to be coordinated and deployed promptly.

On March 22, Dilma Rousseff, President of the New Development Bank and former President of Brazil, stated at the China Development High-Level Forum 2026 Annual Meeting that peace, stability, and security are necessary prerequisites for economic development. A fundamental and obvious fact is that war and development are incompatible, and only in an environment of peace, stability, and security can development be possible. China is a stabilizing force and core engine for global stability, growth, trade, and technological change. China's constructive role is rooted in its own development process, with high-quality development becoming a distinct feature of its current stage of development. This signifies a structural transformation, shifting from growth driven by scale to growth centered around productivity, innovation, sustainability, and resilience.
