This meeting coincides with the 20th anniversary of the establishment of China-EU comprehensive strategic partnership and the 25th anniversary of the establishment of China-EU leaders’ meeting mechanism, which has attracted wide attention from all walks of life in China and the international community. Wang Wenbin pointed out that the changes in the past century have accelerated, the international situation has become more turbulent, the world economy has insufficient kinetic energy, global challenges have emerged one after another, and China-EU relations are also facing new opportunities and challenges. China and Europe are partners, not rivals. The common interests of both sides far outweigh the differences. China expects the leaders’ meeting to play an important role in connecting the past and the future. Enhance mutual understanding and trust through strategic communication, strengthen mutually beneficial cooperation through pioneering and innovation, explore ways to solve problems through dialogue and consultation, and cooperate to meet global challenges.
