President Macron’s State Visit to China: Strengthening Sino-French Ties

In December 2025, French President Emmanuel Macron undertakes a three-day state visit to China (3–5 December), meeting President Xi Jinping in Beijing and Chengdu. This marks his fourth visit to China.

Key discussions included:

• Trade and Economy: Agreements were reached in sectors like energy, agriculture, education, and environment.
• Geopolitics: Emphasis on Sino-French people-to-people exchanges
• Cultural Legacy: References to Paris’ recent milestones (2024 Olympics, Notre-Dame reopening) and forward-looking initiatives like the Louvre AI Summit highlighted Paris’ enduring excellence.

Les Lumières de Paris Hong Kong Chapter is honoured to witness the ongoing Sino-French dynamism, whose mission has always been fostering cultural and artistic exchange between Hong Kong, Greater China, and Paris.
