Exclusive with Huzhou and Montargis mayors on China-France friendship

For more: In the 1920s, Deng Xiaoping, together with young Chinese progressives, spent some time in Montargis, France, as part of the Work-Study Movement, sowing the seeds of Sino-French friendship. In this edition of Mayors’ Dialogue, CGTN’s Wang Guan talks to Hong Hupeng, mayor of Huzhou in east China’s Zhejiang Province, and to Benoît Digeon, mayor of Montargis. Wang revisits this slice of history and looks to the future of the friendship between China and France as the countries mark 60 years of diplomatic relations. Huzhou and Montargis have been sister cities for 20 years and have always been keen to stay true to the China-France cooperation spirit. For both mayors, it means fostering greater interaction in the cultural sphere and boosting collaboration in key areas such as green and low-carbon development. #chinafrance60 #chinaeurope2024 Subscribe to us on YouTube: Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): Download our APP on Google Play (Android):
