China will likely return to a more “proper” range of economic development next year, Premier Li Keqiang said, indicating a strong rebound in growth after this year’s pandemic slump.

After taking a severe knock in the first quarter, the economy is recovering and set to post positive growth this year, Li said at a joint media briefing Tuesday alongside the leaders of six international economic institutions, including the International Monetary Fund and World Trade Organization.
