NEW DELHI, Sept. 9 -- China's development and openness bring opportunities, not risks, to Europe and the world, and risk prevention as well as cooperation is not mutually exclusive, Chinese Premier Li Qiang said Saturday.

People should not simply equate interdependence with insecurity, nor should they overstretch the concept of security and politicize economic issues, said Li while meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on the sidelines of the Group of 20 Summit.
