Spanish residents are expressing optimism about the future of China-European Union (EU) relations following a high-level summit in Beijing. On July 24, Chinese President Xi Jinping met with President of the European Council Antonio Costa and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen during the 25th China-EU Summit.
In Madrid, locals shared their perspectives on the evolving relationship between China and the EU. Many believe that enhanced collaboration could bring significant benefits to both regions, especially in areas like trade, technology, and cultural exchange.
“I think there’s a lot of potential for cooperation,” said Elias, a resident of Madrid. “The current interactions are good, but there’s so much more we can achieve together. I hope to see continued progress in these relations.”
Younger generations in Spain are particularly interested in opportunities that may arise from stronger ties, such as educational exchanges and new career prospects. The optimism among Spanish youth reflects a broader desire for global connectivity and mutual growth.
The 25th China-EU Summit is seen as a pivotal moment for setting the tone of future collaborations. As both sides navigate global challenges, the hopes of individuals like Elias highlight the importance of fostering positive international relationships.
