As two major markets and civilizations of today's world, China and Europe should firmly advance their partnership and instil more stability and positive energy into the international community, Xi said.

Pledging more reform and opening-up outcomes, Xi said China and the EU should follow the trend of world multi-polarization and economic globalization, increase strategic communication and coordination, join hands with each other to safeguard multilateralism and the rule-based system of free trade as well as an open world economy, push ahead with trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, improve global governance and promote the cause of peace and development.

Hailing the significance of the EU-China comprehensive strategic cooperation, Tusk and Juncker expressed their gratitude for China's support for European integration.

They said that the EU was willing to expand cooperation with China and step up communication and coordination with China in international affairs.

Both the EU and China are committed to multilateralism, upholding the rule-based international order, handling international relations on the basis of mutual respect, and improving multilateral trade system through multilateral consultations, according to the EU leaders.
