European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen flew to China to meet Xi Jinping.
Von der Leyen emphasized the growth in cooperation between the two countries over the last fifty years and the fact that China and the EU are currently two of the major global economic powers.
And in this regard, he pointed out that bilateral trade in goods between the two countries exceeds 2 billion euros a day. Chinese President Xi Jinping, aware of the accelerating transformation of an ever-changing world, expressed hope that the two powers would choose the most strategically appropriate course of action.
There was no shortage of discussion of issues of capital importance such as climate change and renewable energy.

It's interesting to see how cooperation between China and the EU has grown so much over the years. We hope there will be more meetings like this to address important issues like climate change.
