President Xi Jinping and other top leaders visited the Museum of the War of Chinese People’s Resistance Against Japanese Aggression to watch a new exhibition -- “Great Victory, Historical Contributions” -- on July 7, which marked the 78th anniversary of the beginning of the war against Japanese aggression.
“Remembering history is to open up to the future ... forgetting history is a betrayal,” Xi, also general secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, said during the visit.
The other members of the Standing Committee of the CPC Central Committee — Li Keqiang, Zhang Dejiang, Yu Zhengsheng, Liu Yunshan, Wang Qishan and Zhang Gaoli — were also present.
