Vice President of the European Commission and High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Federica Mogherini, on July 13, 2016 gave a speech at the Academy of Social Sciences in Beijing (CASS).
Mrs. Mogherini said that it was the first occasion to present the EU’s Global Strategy after introducing it to the European Council, the European Union Heads of State and Government, at the end of June. The High Representative was in Beijing on the occasion of the EU-China Summit. “This is a very intense and complex moment both for our European Union and for our world. And in a moment like this, I really appreciate this exchange of views with an audience like this one, like yours,” Mogherini said. Besides the Global Strategy, she also shared a few thoughts on the new EU Strategy on EU-China relations. She also said it was important “to try and look at Europe from the outside, through your eyes,” because “our friends and partners around the world see the value of our Union much better than we Europeans do”.
