Last month, French president Macron visited President Xi in China with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. A strong signal to enforce the China-France and China-EU cooperation, especially under the stress between China and USA.<\/p>\n

The Chinese and French heads of state witnessed the signing of a number of bilateral cooperation agreements in the fields of agri-food, science and technology, aviation, civil nuclear energy, sustainable development, culture and others.<\/p>\n

Among them, French aircraft manufacturer Airbus signed a volume purchase agreement with China Aviation Equipment Group Co. for 160 civil aircraft, worth a total of about $20 billion, and will build a second production line in Tianjin to produce up to 75 A320 Neo aircraft per month by 2026.<\/p>\n

In addition, among the large business delegation accompanying Macron on his trip, railroad equipment maker Alstom, France’s Duffy Maritime, nuclear power supplier EDF, companies such as L’Or\u00e9al and the French pork industry have also signed agreements with China to expand cooperation.<\/p>\n

In recent years, China and France have had close economic and trade ties. According to official data, bilateral trade between France and China reached 541.67 billion yuan in 2022, accounting for 9 percent of the total trade between China and Europe. On May 17, 2023, PRC Ministry of Commerce reported that foreign direct investment from France surged 567.3 percent year-on-year during January-April 2023.[1]<\/p>\n
