Xi conveys to EU message of partnership


China and Europe should be the two major forces that safeguard global peace and stability, and Beijing is willing to communicate with Brussels over major issues, he said.
China and the EU have extended each other support and help since the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, Xi said.
Beijing stands ready to work with Brussels to make bilateral relations even more stable, mature and elevated to a higher level during the post-pandemic period, he said.
China, as an ancient country with a long history and a developing country full of vitality, will always pursue peace instead of hegemony, he said.
The country has focused all its policies and efforts on enabling its people to live better lives, and it will continue unwaveringly to follow a path of peaceful development, he added.
Xi expressed his belief that the EU will keep heading toward unity, stability, openness and prosperity, saying that China stands ready to bolster strategic cooperation with the EU to jointly cope with global challenges.
