Ministry of Foreign Affairs: China and the European Parliament have decided to simultaneously and comprehensively lift restrictions on mutual exchanges

On May 6, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lin Jian presided over a regular press conference. A reporter asked whether it can be confirmed that China and the European Parliament have reportedly lifted restrictions on exchanges. Lin Jian said that in the past few years, there have been some twists and turns in the exchanges between the Chinese and European legislatures due to well-known reasons. Under the current circumstances, both sides believe that it is very important for China and the European Parliament to strengthen dialogue and cooperation. After mutual agreement, the Chinese side and the European Parliament have decided to simultaneously lift restrictions on mutual exchanges. "We believe and expect that with the full resumption of exchanges between the Chinese and European legislatures, the exchanges and understanding between the two sides will deepen, which will inject new impetus into the sustained, healthy and stable development of China-EU relations," Lin Jian said.
