Decoupling hurts others' interests without benefiting oneself: Xi

BEIJING, April 20 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Xi Jinping said Tuesday that in the age of economic globalization, attempts to "erect walls" or "decouple" run counter to the law of economics and market principles, and would hurt others' interests without benefiting oneself.
