Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Strengthening strategic communication and deepening dialogue and cooperation between China and Europe is beneficial to both sides and the world

At the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs held on the 8th, some media asked that not long ago, the King of Spain and the President of France visited China, and the German Foreign Minister will also visit China in the future. May I ask how China evaluates these visits and views China EU cooperation?

Regarding this, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun stated that since the beginning of this year, China has had frequent high-level exchanges with European countries, and the leaders of both sides have reached important consensus on further developing strategic partnerships and deepening mutually beneficial cooperation, providing strategic guidance. The current international situation is becoming increasingly turbulent. Strengthening strategic communication and deepening dialogue and cooperation between China and Europe is beneficial to both sides and the world.

He stated that China is willing to work with Europe to implement the consensus reached by the leaders of both sides, strengthen unity and cooperation, and promote the healthy and stable development of China Europe relations. Both sides should jointly uphold multilateralism, support free trade, defend the post-war international order and rules, oppose unilateralism and bullying, jointly address global challenges such as climate change, improve global governance, benefit the people of China and Europe, and inject more stability and certainty into the turbulent world.
