Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang held talks with his German and French counterparts in Berlin and Paris this week. On Friday, he's heading to Norway.

Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Qin Gang and German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock held talks in Berlin on Tuesday, CGTN reports. Qin Gang said that China and Germany, as the major countries with global influence, should strengthen dialogue and cooperation under the current turbulent international situation, the news site adds. The two countries should jointly prepare for the coming seventh round of China-Germany Inter-governmental Consultation for practical cooperation between the two sides in various fields.

Countries need cooperation rather than confrontation in the face of various global issues and challenges, Qin Gang said. He believed China and Germany should jointly resist the “New Cold War” and “decoupling” ideas, providing confidence and impetus for world peace and prosperity.

On Wednesday, Qin Gang held talks with French Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Catherine Colonna in Paris.

Noting that President Emmanuel Macron’s state visit to China is a complete success, Qin Gang said China is ready to work with France to follow through on the important common understandings reached by the two heads of state, accelerate the advancement of exchanges and cooperation in various fields, and work for continuous development of the close and enduring comprehensive strategic partnership between China and France. The two sides should keep close high-level exchanges, expand exchanges at all levels and continuously explore new areas of cooperation. Both sides should open markets wider to each other and build a more resilient China-France supply chain.
