China further relaxed its more than three-decade-old family planning policy, according to a statement issued on Thursday by the Communist Party of China Central Committee. The statement said the country's aging trend would be actively¹ addressed by the universal two-child policy.

29日，中共中央委员会发布公报称，中国将进一步放开实施了30多年的计划生育政策。公报指出，“全面二孩政策”将有效应对人口老龄化趋势。

 

“全面二孩政策”（the universal two-child policy）即允许全面实施一对夫妇可生育两个孩子政策。这是继2013年，十八届三中全会决定启动实施“单独二孩”政策（two-child fertility policy for couples where either the husband or the wife is from a single-child family）之后的又一次人口政策调整。
