This day, 17 October, in 1980, Deng Xiaoping met with French President, Giscard d’Estaing. Deng Xiaoping said that the “multipolar politics” proposed by d’Estaing is an objective reality. Multipolarity requires unity. There is no leader or treaty, but rather mutual coordination of actions and policies is what is needed; the relationship between the USA and Europe can only be an equal partnership.
1980年10月17日的这一天，邓小平会见了法国总统吉斯卡德·德斯坦。 邓小平说，d’Estaing提出的“多极政治”是一个客观的现实。 多极化需要团结。 没有领导人或条约，而是需要相互协调行动和政策；美国和欧洲之间的关系只能是平等的伙伴关系。
