Oil demand for road transport should peak around 2025
"It is necessary to carry forward the fine traditions, carry on the red gene, build the unique military culture of the Marine Corps, cultivate a fighting spirit that is not afraid of hardship and death, and bring the troops to life," Xi added.
Xi's emphasis was on combat training. "It is necessary to persist in leading training by combat, strengthen task traction, strengthen targeted and confrontational training, and beat and exercise the troops hard and severely," the Chinese President said.
He added that it is necessary to promote innovations in combat theory, training models, and task organisation to improve training levels and actual combat capabilities.
Xi said it is necessary to strengthen the integration of subordinate combat forces, combat units, and combat elements, strengthen coordination with other services, straighten out related command and support relationships, and deeply integrate into the joint combat system.
It was not clear if Xi's rallying the troops is aimed at India or the US as China is engaged in a tense standoff with both the countries.
