Building bridges between China and France


French President Emmanuel Macron is on a three-day visit with trade topping his China agenda.

It is being described as a new stage in French diplomacy - along with potential trade deals being signed.
President Emmanuel Macron is on his first official visit to China and economic issues are the focus of the three-day trip.
Climate change is also a key topic for cooperation between both countries, after President Donald Trump announced the US is pulling out of the Paris climate change accord.
Macron is backing Chinese President Xi Jinping's new "silk road" project. The One Belt, One Road initiative aims to extend China's reach across Asia and beyond by using a network of new railways, ports, and other infrastructure.
