ANTALYA, Turkey - Chinese President Xi Jinping and other leaders of the emerging-market bloc of BRICS countries on Sunday strongly condemned the terror attacks in Paris.

The leaders of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa met in Antalya on the sidelines of the 10th summit of the Group of 20 (G20) major economies.

The summit began in this Turkish resort city with Xi joining other world leaders in seeking ways to promote global economic growth.

During the two-day meeting, Xi, leader of the world's second-largest economy, is expected to share his views on boosting sluggish global growth and enhancing global economic governance.

The Chinese president and other G20 leaders will discuss development and climate change at a working luncheon before they delve into such subjects as global economy, growth strategies, and employment and investment strategies.

On Monday, they will continue discussions and focus on financial regulation, international tax, anti-corruption and International Monetary Fund reform.

The Antalya leaders' meeting will conclude with a presentation by Xi, whose country holds the rotating G20 presidency in 2016.

Besides the G20 summit, Xi's schedule also includes a meeting with other leaders of the BRICS nations and talks with other foreign leaders.

The G20, a main forum for global economic and financial cooperation, accounts for around 85 percent of global GDP, 80 percent of world trade, and two-thirds of the world’s population.
