China recently wants to build better relationships with European countries, such as France and the Netherlands.
When Chinese President Xi Jinping spoke on the phone with French President Emmanuel Macron, he said that China and France should work together to protect the rules of international trade and the world economy.
China and the Netherlands also said they will strengthen cooperation on climate change and green development.
When Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Dutch Foreign Minister Wopke Hoekstra in Beijing, they said the two countries will cooperate in many areas, especially in semiconductor technology.
Semiconductors are important materials used to make computers and mobile phones.
Recently, because the United States has restricted semiconductor exports to China, China's economy has faced some difficulties.
China hopes to work together with European countries to protect free trade and improve the world economy.
The Netherlands also expressed willingness to work with China to address global issues, such as climate change and protecting women's rights.
China does not like that the United States is encouraging other countries to restrict semiconductor exports to China because this affects the global supply chain.
