Global Trade at a Crossroads: Why China & Europe Are Teaming Up 
Pierre Gramegna, managing director of the European Stability Mechanism (ESM), just dropped a truth bomb : China and the EU must 'double down' on cooperation to tackle today’s biggest challenges—from trade wars to climate action. In an exclusive chat with CGTN’s Guan Xin, he stressed that both economies, powered by exports, are 'natural allies' in defending fair trade rules as the US hikes tariffs.
No More Protectionism? WTO Gets a Shoutout 
Gramegna called out rising protectionism, urging China and Europe to settle disputes 'by the book' through the WTO. With the US stepping back from ESG (environmental, social, governance) investments, he believes Beijing and Brussels can fill the gap. 'Financial systems must fuel the green transition—not hold it back,' he said.
Green Economy: The Ultimate Collab? 

Think renewable energy, carbon-neutral tech, and sustainable finance. Gramegna’s vision? A China-EU powerhouse driving global climate goals. As Gen Z rallies for greener policies, this partnership could be the plot twist the planet needs. Stay tuned!
