Fifty years of partnership! In 1975, at the height of Cold War tensions, China and the European Economic Community established formal diplomatic relations, setting the stage for an enduring alliance. This bold move paved the way for dynamic cooperation and rapid economic growth.
Fast forward to today, and bilateral trade has soared from a modest $2.4 billion to an astonishing $786 billion – a 300-fold surge! 🚀 At the recent China-EU Forum, the head of the Chinese Mission to the European Union highlighted that China and Europe are major forces in advancing multipolarity, fueling globalization, and celebrating rich cultural diversity. 🤝
This milestone not only reflects deep-rooted trust but also symbolizes a robust economic bridge that continues to inspire global cooperation and innovation. 🌏
