The more complex and challenging the international situation becomes, the more important it is for China and Switzerland to stand together, strengthen cooperation, and overcome difficulties jointly. China is willing to work with Switzerland and the international community to firmly support the multilateral trading system, safeguard the security and stability of industrial and supply chains, jointly foster an open, transparent, and predictable international economic and trade environment, and promote economic globalization toward a more sustainable and sound direction.

Mr. Loeffler said that Switzerland–China relations are built on openness, innovation, mutual trust, and a commitment to peaceful dialogue. The two sides share common principles and visions, and their cooperation will be further deepened.
