Chinese President Xi Jinping and his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron, hold talks at Elysee Palace, Paris, France, May 6, 2024. /Xinhua
Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Monday that China and France should uphold independence and jointly fend off a "new Cold War" or bloc confrontation.
Xi made the remarks during talks with his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron, at the Elysee Palace in Paris.
"China and France should adhere to the original aspirations of establishing diplomatic relations, which are independence, mutual understanding, foresight, and mutual benefit and win-win cooperation, and inject new connotations of the times into them," Xi said.
The two countries should uphold mutual understanding and jointly promote harmonious coexistence in a diverse world, he said.
He urged the two countries to stay farsighted and jointly promote equitable and orderly multi-polarization of the world.
China and France should uphold mutual benefits, jointly oppose acts of "decoupling" and disrupting industrial and supply chains, and say no together to building barriers, Xi said.
The Chinese president is on a state visit to France, his third such visit to the European country since 2014.
This year marks the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between China and France.
During talks with Macron, Xi expressed hope that through the visit, he can work with Macron to pass on the baton of history, start a new journey for the bilateral relationship for the next 60 years, and make new contributions to world peace and stability and the development and progress of humanity.
