Today (5 September) in Brussels, Environment, Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Commissioner Karmenu Vella (pictured) will host the first ‘Blue Partnership Forum for the Oceans'. The Forum, established under the Ocean Partnership signed between the EU and China in July 2018, will bring together EU and Chinese stakeholders. They will help shape future actions in the areas covered by the Ocean Partnership, such as ocean governance, a thriving blue economy and sustainable fisheries. Ahead of the event, Commissioner Vella said: “China and the EU are major ocean players. We should use our joint influence to take the lead globally and ensure the conservation and sustainable use of the oceans. We want our partnership with China to go beyond words and deliver tangible results.” The forum will be followed by a high-level dialogue co-chaired by Commissioner Vella and Administrator of State Oceanic Administration of China Hong Wang.
