Chinese President Xi Jinping touched down in Paris this weekend, marking a milestone state visit timed with 60 years of China-France diplomatic relations. The trip underscores a thriving partnership that’s become a blueprint for global cooperation.
Over the past five years, bilateral trade between the two nations has surged by 34%, with France now ranking as China’s third-largest EU trading partner. Key sectors like aerospace, renewable energy, and luxury goods have driven this growth, while tech innovation partnerships are blossoming.
Cultural exchanges are also thriving: French art exhibitions in Beijing and Shanghai attracted over 2 million visitors last year, while Chinese language programs in France have seen enrollments double since 2019.
Analysts say this visit could unlock new deals in AI and green tech ahead of the UN Climate Conference. As Xi noted, \"Our shared vision for innovation bridges continents.\"
