The Ministry of Foreign Affairs: hope that the European side will take off its ideological tinted glasses to form an independent and objective understanding of China. On 15 May, Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin held a regular press conference. A reporter raised a question on the remarks made by Borrelli, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, concerning China. Spokesman Wang Wenbin said that China has always viewed China-EU relations from a strategic and long-term perspective, regards Europe as a comprehensive strategic partner, and maintains a stable and continuous policy toward Europe. The Chinese side appreciates the European side's disapproval of the zero-sum game, and we believe that the "triple positioning" of "partners, competitors and institutional opponents" is self-contradictory. In fact, China and the EU share a wide range of common interests, cooperation outweighs competition, and consensus outweighs differences. It is hoped that the European side will take off the tinted glasses of ideology, eliminate external interference, adhere to strategic autonomy, form an independent and objective understanding of China, and pursue a positive and rational policy toward China, which is in the best interests of Europe.
