China.com6month20Japan NewsEuropean Union Ambassador to China Ed and Dr.19Visited the w88 casino in Beijing on the 2nd and gave a speech entitled "Strategic Partnership between the EU and China", introducing China-EU relations and how the EU responded to the European debt crisis. After a humorous opening, Ed and the Ambassador first briefly reviewed the history of strategic cooperation between China and the EU. He pointed out that due to the deepening of globalization and the interdependence between countries, the relationship between China and the EU is becoming increasingly closer. He said that interdependence between countries not only refers to the increasing interdependence of countries around the world, but also reflects the concept of mutual benefit and win-win. Interdependence is not a country's responsibility, but an asset, and China's performance is an example of using interdependence as an asset.
Ambassador Edhe particularly demonstrated the interdependence, mutual assistance and cooperation between China and the EU in urbanization, agriculture, politics and other aspects. He emphasized that China and the EU are partners and competitors, but by no means enemies.
Regarding the European debt crisis that everyone is very concerned about, Ambassador Edhe said that in the past two years, EU member states and the EU have taken comprehensive measures to deal with the European debt crisis. He is confident that Europe will successfully emerge from the crisis and demonstrated this confidence to the students with a series of data.
China announced on Monday that it would increase capital to the International Monetary Fund430$100 million. Ambassador Edhe believes that China's capital increase is a "good thing" and EU countries will welcome China's decision. He said that China has always played a constructive role in assisting Europe through the European debt crisis. "China has expressed its trust in the euro zone, which is a very important signal to the market." However, Ambassador Ed and Ambassador also believe that the International Monetary Fund's assistance should only serve as the "second line of defense." He emphasized that the EU should shoulder its share of responsibilities.
Ambassador Edhe also mentioned the EU’s efforts in exchanges between Chinese and European scholars and students. The European Union will provide scholarships for exchange students between China and Europe, with a cumulative total of30000Person times, including20000Chinese students who went to EU member states for exchange and study and10000European Union students coming to China to study can receive scholarships. He hoped that the students here could seize the opportunity, go abroad, exchange and further their studies, which would not only continuously improve themselves, but also enhance their understanding of the world.
