At the Boao Forum for Asia (BFA) this week, former Spanish Foreign Minister Arancha Gonzalez called for stronger China-EU collaboration to tackle global challenges like protectionism, climate change, and tech innovation. Speaking to CGTN, she emphasized that 'working hand in hand' could unlock solutions for fairer trade, greener energy, and a more stable world economy.
The focus? Ditching trade wars for dialogue. Gonzalez highlighted the urgency of fighting climate change through shared tech investments and sustainable policies—think solar power and electric vehicles.
She also pushed for digital transparency to bridge trust gaps, making global supply chains smoother.
Why it matters: With rising tariffs and geopolitical tensions, this partnership could be a game-changer for young entrepreneurs and students eyeing global opportunities. Plus, as BFA 2024 wraps up, experts say such alliances are key to balancing growth and equality.
