Endow the spirit of establishing diplomatic relations between China and France with new contemporary connotations (harmony)
2024-05-10
Both sides have issued four joint statements and signed nearly 20 bilateral cooperation documents. China and France are sincere friends and win-win partners. Since the establishment of diplomatic relations 60 years ago, China France relations have always been at the forefront of China's relations with Western countries, becoming a model of mutual achievement and common progress among countries with different civilizations, systems, and development levels. From the Nice Night Talks, the Yu Garden Tea Party and the Pine Garden Meeting, to this small meeting in Upper Pyrenees, the two heads of state established solid mutual trust and sincere friendship. Under the strategic guidance of the two heads of state, China France relations have maintained a good development momentum. The strategic communication between the two countries has been fruitful, practical cooperation has yielded fruitful results, cultural exchanges have deepened, and good communication and cooperation have been maintained in international and regional affairs. At a critical moment when the world's unprecedented changes are accelerating and China France relations are in a transitional phase, how to jointly promote the healthy and stable development of bilateral relations and inject more stability and positive energy into the ever-changing world is a major issue faced by both sides. This has important guiding significance for maintaining high-level development of Sino French relations. China and France should adhere to independence and autonomy, and jointly prevent the "new cold war" or factional confrontation. In the current international situation, China and France jointly oppose the "New Cold War" and resist camp confrontation, which is conducive to using the stability of China France relations to cope with world uncertainty. During this visit, the two heads of state unanimously agreed to uphold the original intention of establishing diplomatic relations, deepen high-level mutual trust and cooperation between China and France, strengthen communication and cooperation on major international issues, jointly inject hope into the confused world, and explore directions for human progress. China and France should adhere to mutual understanding and work together to promote harmonious coexistence in a colorful world. Although China and France belong to Eastern and Western civilizations with different values and social systems, they both value cultural exchange and mutual learning. China supports France in hosting the Paris Olympics and has decided to extend the visa free policy for citizens of 12 countries, including France, for short-term visits to China until the end of 2025. China also supports the opening of a direct flight route from Shanghai to Marseille and welcomes France to take over as the host country
