French Minister for Ecological Transition, Agnès Pannier-Runacher, expressed her desire to develop stronger cooperation between China and the European Union (EU) in the fight against climate change. Speaking at the ChangeNow conference in Paris on April 24, she emphasized the need for a joint declaration between the two entities in response to the United States’ withdrawal from the diplomatic stage on climate issues. “I carry the ambition that we could have a joint EU-China declaration because I believe that both the EU and China today have real ambitions on climate,” she stated.
