Belgium's Former Prime Minister Yves Leterme shared his insights during the Global Civilizations Dialogue Ministerial Meeting in Beijing. He emphasized that "Belgium, being multilingual and multicultural, serves as the real gateway to Europe. Together with China's unprecedented progress, the European integration and the European Union represent one of the most positive developments in human history." He concluded with a call to action: "Let us promote openness, dialogue, respect, and tolerance as pathways to further progress for mankind."
