Political certainty and calmness matter for Italy. This is not only relevant to the implementation of the recovery plan with EU funds but also to the need of stabilizing the economy amid the ongoing instability caused by the war in Ukraine.
Just as China said there is no change in its commitment to developing ties with Germany, which includes no change in China’s sincere wish for closer cooperation with Germany, and there has been no change in China’s conviction that both countries can make a great difference together.
The responsibility of the Chinese and European leadership is to work together to stabilize the situation and prevent new worldwide crises. Competition can be managed as long as there is common will.
China and the EU do not envisage a world where their differences would cease to exist. What they are striving to achieve is a framework of common understanding that will allow synergies towards common prosperity.
China and the EU, representing two great civilizations that have advanced progress of humanity, have the potential to play a leading role in steering the now turbulent world towards peace and prosperity by working together.
The Ukraine crisis may disrupt the Belt and Road but an old China hand sees it re-energizing the China-EU trade relationship.
It is possible to envisage outcomes where competition will not lead to confrontation, but rather to an internationally accepted balance.
China is the land of opportunity at different levels. I mean today, since a long time, a lot of architecture and design is being done in China.
Today’s Olympic motto, ‘Faster, Higher, Stronger – Together,’ would be meaningless if ‘Together’ was absent.
Italy and China are working together on very ambitious cooperation projects on culture, also in the year of 2022, Italy-China Year of Culture and Tourism.
These neoliberal ‘world citizens’ in politics and the press will send this country into suicidal attacks against China and Russia, regardless of loss.
Irrespective of differences, China’s relationship with Germany is likely to remain productive, open, cordial, and beneficial, with proper management of differences and issues in a mature and orderly fashion.
