President Xi Jinping has condemned the US-led "suppression of China" in a speech to delegates at an annual congress in Beijing, state media reported.

"Western countries led by the United States have implemented all-round containment, encirclement and suppression of China, which has brought unprecedented severe challenges to our country's development," Xi said, Xinhua News Agency reported late on Monday.

Xi added that China must "have the courage to fight as the country faces profound and complex changes in both the domestic and international landscape", according to a readout of the speech to delegates at the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

He added that the year 2022 was of great importance in the history of the Communist Party and the country as it saw fruitful achievements. (Xinhua/AFP)
