Paris isn’t just about croissants and the Eiffel Tower anymore! China and France just wrapped up a major cultural pow-wow in the City of Lights. The China-France High-Level Forum on People-to-People Exchanges brought together diplomats, media leaders, and cultural ambassadors to celebrate 60 years of friendship between these two global giants.
CMG President Shen Haixiong (think of him as the French baguette to China’s jianbing) kicked things off with a video speech, calling the bond between the nations \"two pearls shining brightly in the long river of human history.\" Talk about #FriendshipGoals!
Why does this matter? With tensions rising globally, events like this remind us that art , education
, and TikTok dance challenges
(okay, maybe not that last one) can bridge divides. Plus, young entrepreneurs and students are set to benefit from new exchange programs – perfect for Gen Z globetrotters!
As the two countries mark their diamond jubilee of diplomatic relations, expect more collabs that’ll make your travel bucket list explode.
