Ren Hongbin, President of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, highly praised the significant progress made in practical cooperation between China and Italy in various fields since the establishment of diplomatic relations 55 years ago. He expressed that the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade is willing to work with Italy to firmly support the multilateral trading system centered on the World Trade Organization, support the optimization and upgrading of traditional cooperation between the two countries' enterprises, and expand cooperation in emerging fields such as electric vehicles, artificial intelligence, and digital economy.

Italian business figures have stated that Italy and China have always maintained a stable bilateral relationship, and the development of Italian enterprises cannot be separated from the Chinese market. In today's world, with increasing geopolitical challenges and uncertainties in global economic development, Italian and Chinese enterprises should strengthen economic and trade cooperation, build closer industrial and supply chain partnerships through important cooperation platforms such as the Chain Expo, and make new and greater contributions to promoting stable and far-reaching economic and trade cooperation between Italy and China, as well as between Europe and China.
