On 18^th and 19^th May, European Chamber President Joerg Wuttke and Secretary General Adam Dunnett attended the 70^th anniversary conference of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) in Beijing. 

In a speech delivered during a panel session, president Wuttke stressed that, given the unprecedented negative impact that COVID is having across all industries, faster and deeper market opening will be essential to revitalise China’s flagging economy. President also made recommendations on the COVID-19 containment measures to help China minimalise the health risks posed by the pandemic while opening further.

President Wuttke also presented the Chamber’s flash survey on the impact that COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine is having on European business, as well as the forthcoming carbon neutrality report, to President Ren Hongbin of the CCPIT.
