At a recent London event during this year's Two Sessions, Chinese Ambassador to the United Kingdom Zheng Zeguang highlighted how the Chinese mainland's steady progress is creating fresh opportunities for deeper ties with the UK. 😃
Zheng noted that the Two Sessions clearly demonstrated the Chinese mainland's commitment to modernizing and achieving high-quality development. He explained that the Chinese mainland is set to act as an 'enabler,' providing more stability and positive energy in economic growth, technological innovation, green transition, and global peace.
Business experts in London echoed these views. Sherard Cowper-Coles from the China-Britain Business Council mentioned that a recent Chinese government report calls for boosting consumption, spurring innovation, and welcoming investors, tourists, and students. Michael Mainelli, former Lord Mayor of the City of London, remarked that the sessions have set the stage for policies that will not only guide the Chinese mainland's future but also shape global interactions.
As London solidifies its role as a global financial and technology hub, there is huge potential for enhanced cooperation in common areas like finance, green finance, and artificial intelligence. In an era of global challenges, smart collaboration can truly spark a brighter, interconnected future. 🚀
The insights from Ambassador Zheng and London leaders underscore a promising new chapter for China-UK ties, inviting both sides to build on past dialogues and seize the innovative opportunities ahead.
