China on Thursday issued a white paper on the country's progress in developing sports for persons with disabilities.
Titled "China's Parasports: Progress and the Protection of Rights," the white paper was released by the State Council Information Office one day before the opening of the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, along with making progress in the cause of the disabled, the country has steadily developed parasports, blazing a path that carries distinct Chinese features and respects the trends of the times, according to the white paper.
The white paper also noted that historic progress has been made in parasports since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2012.
