18China-EU Trade Relations
- Romano Prodi, President of the European
Commission, May 4, 2004 - But especially in recent years, the relationship
between the Union and China has expanded far
beyond trade and other economic issues. - Last year the Union issued its Policy Paper on
China. We called our relationship "A Maturing
Partnership". This maturing, increasingly
strategic partnership is developing with each
passing day. - if it is not marriage, it is at least a very
serious engagement.
- Romano Prodi, President of the European
Commission - There is no question that business and business
relations are an extremely important part of
EU-China relations. Two-way trade between the
European Union and China grew strongly again last
year and will grow even more this year. - We have a very important, ever-growing
relationship when it comes to trade and
investment. And the presence of such a large
number of important business people today
testifies to that. - But especially in recent years, the relationship
between the Union and China has expanded far
beyond trade and other economic issues. - Last year the Union issued its Policy Paper on
China. We called our relationship "A Maturing
Partnership". This maturing, increasingly
strategic partnership is developing with each
passing day. - And today, on the occasion of this visit, it will
provide yet further fruit -- as we sign another
agreement and four other documents that further
cement our partnership. - Most of you will know the weekly magazine The Far
Eastern Economic Review. Its issue of 12 February
this year had a cover story under the title
"China's love affair with Europe". And the
sub-title read "It's More Than Love". - So first, trade and economics, and now, "love"
too -- or "even more than love". That sounds
pretty serious, and if it is not marriage, it is
at least a very serious engagement. - This engagement is being consolidated constantly.
Today we welcome Chinese Prime Minister Wen -- on
his first ever visit to the headquarters of the
European Union.
19China-EU Trade Relations
- China-Europe economic cooperation is
win-win-Mr. Lamy, EU Trade Commissioner, April
29, 2004 - China-Europe trade US125.22 billion in 2003,
over US150 billion in 2004, 2003-2004 annual
growth rate over 30 - China and EU are 2nd biggest trading partners
mutually in 2003, the 1st in 2004. - Supported by mutual political commitments, and
friendly, regularly negotiation and dialogue
systems and broad market demand - Visiting and doing business with EU with 25
members are the dreams of Chinese citizens and
companies, this is a highly attractive and
magnificent land!
