Beijing: Chinese, French and German leaders agreed during a virtual summit to jointly work toward an equitable and reasonable climate governance mechanism for win-win cooperation and make the response to climate change a pillar for cooperation between China and the European Union.
During the meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, President Xi Jinping said China will honour its commitments to limit its carbon emissions before 2030 and attain carbon neutrality before 2060, while describing the mission as a “hard battle” for the world’s largest developing country.
