Six decades of shaking up global diplomacy! China and France are celebrating 60 years of diplomatic relations this year – a partnership that’s evolved from economic handshakes to AI innovation, eco-friendly solutions, and cultural exchanges straight out of a Netflix travel doc.
Back in 1964, France became the first major Western country to formally buddy up with China. Fast-forward to 2024: over 110 sister cities link the two nations, and a Year of Culture and Tourism is serving serious #Wanderlust goals.
Trade alert: With $78.9 billion in bilateral trade last year, China’s now France’s #1 Asian trading partner. French wine, luxury goods, and tech (think bioengineering and microchips) are flooding Chinese markets, growing at 12%+ annually. Meanwhile, France remains China’s EU BFF for investments and high-tech collabs.
“It’s not just about economics,” says Liu Wei, a Beijing-based student studying French literature. “From Louvre exhibitions in Shanghai to joint climate projects, we’re building bridges that Gen Z actually cares about.”
As both nations eye AI and green energy breakthroughs, this 60-year-old friendship is proving that geopolitics can be #Goals.
