[Reported by U Yuanchun of the Global Times-Global Network] On April 25, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Guo Jiakun held the regular press conference. During the conference, a reporter from Agence France-Presse asked: The French government said yesterday that it hopes China and the EU can establish a united front in dealing with climate change. The French side said this would be able to make up for the losses caused by the United States withdrawing from the Paris Agreement. Is China willing to stand together with the EU on the issue of climate change?
Guo Jiakun responded that China has repeatedly emphasized that responding to climate change is not something others want us to do, but rather something we must do ourselves. This is an intrinsic requirement for China's sustainable development and also the responsibility and commitment to build a community with a shared future for mankind. China has built the world's largest clean power supply system and the most complete new energy industry chain, and will achieve the highest carbon emission reduction at the shortest time globally. Regardless of how the international situation changes, China will work with European countries and other parties to firmly uphold true multilateralism, fully, completely, in good faith, and effectively fulfill the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and its Paris Agreement, jointly address the global challenge of climate change, and jointly promote green and low-carbon development.
