[Ministry of Foreign Affairs: China-EU differences on economic and trade issues can be completely resolved through dialogue] On October 20, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning hosted a regular press conference. A reporter asked: Foreign Minister Wang Yi has just concluded his visit to four European and Asian countries. Can the spokesperson introduce the relevant situation of this visit? At present, China-EU economic and trade frictions have attracted much attention. What message has China sent to the EU through this visit? Mao Ning said that the most important message conveyed by Foreign Minister Wang’s visit is that trust is the cornerstone of peace, friendship is precious wealth, cooperation is a solid driving force, and partnership is a common goal. Mao Ning emphasized that China-EU relations are generally healthy and stable. Differences on economic and trade issues arise during the continuous development of cooperation between the two sides and can be resolved through dialogue and should not affect the overall situation of China-EU relations. China and Europe share extensive common interests, both advocate multilateralism, adhere to the core and leading role of the United Nations, and are willing to resolve international and regional disputes through dialogue and politics. China and Europe should respect each other, appreciate each other, achieve together, and jointly shoulder the international responsibility for world peace and development.
