China has achieved an economic growth of 5% for 2025, but reported a slowdown to 4.5% in the last three months due to weak domestic spending.

In January, Chinese authorities announced that they have reached the economic growth target of 5% for the year 2025. However, Beijing reported a slowdown in economic expansion, which decreased to 4.5% in the last three months of the previous year. This slowdown was driven by weak domestic spending and a prolonged real estate crisis, which continues to affect the economy. These data suggest that, despite achieving the long-term target, the Chinese economy is currently facing significant challenges, which could influence future development prospects.
