China is a fast-developing exporter to Europe and China's investment projects in Europe are very influential, said Karel de Gucht, European Commissioner for Trade. The healthy and sustainable development of trade between China and Europe can drive the growth of the world’s economy, he noted, adding that China and Europe are committed to creating a fair trading environment under the backdrop of globalization.
