Colombo (LNW): Fostering meaningful dialogue between China and Western nations, including the United States and the European Union would be necessary for the formulation of a robust international strategy capable of addressing the looming global challenges in 2024, emphasised President Ranil Wickremesinghe, during his opening address at the Berling Global conference in Berlin, Germany today (28).
