Visiting Chinese Premier Li Qiang, who wrapped up back-to-back visits to Germany and France on Friday, was reassured by his hosts that the two major powers of the European Union both oppose "decoupling" with China.
The reaffirming by Paris and Berlin that they do not seek to sever the global industry and supply chains to meet the narrow ends of some China-bashing politicians in Washington, and their recognition of the importance of China as a reliable partner in trade, technology and green development is a confidence boost for world.
Their endorsement of common development and multilateralism is especially important at a time when the United States is putting its own short-term interests first, to the exclusion of the widespread long-term benefits that would result from a healthy post-pandemic global recovery. And that positive message also comes at a time when China is hungry for more foreign investment, technology and cooperation with developed economies to help spur the next stage of its high-quality development and its modernization, which will ensure it remains a key driver of the global economy.
