Duda: CEE countries can act together

The countries of Central and Eastern Europe can join hands in economic efforts, said President Andrzej Duda at a summit in Suhzou in China, bringing together 16 Central and Eastern European countries, and China. "We want to show that despite our differences, we can act together, arm in arm, not only to achieve common political aims, but also to do it when it comes to common economic projects. This joint  thinking and acting is the greatest advantage of our region," Duda said. He added that the CEE is of importance in developing economic relations between China and the whole of Europe. "China and the countries of our region play an increasingly important role in the global economy," Duda said.
