Madrid, Dec 16 (EFE) - (Camera: Nacho Martin) The European Union and Asia "need each other much more" in the face of a more complicated international scenario, the EU's Head of Common Foreign and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, said today. At the opening of the 14th meeting of EU and Asian foreign ministers (meeting in the ASEM forum), which includes 51 countries, Borrell stressed that recent international events "have increased the value of our organisation" in defending a rules-based global system. The one-day meeting in Madrid today allows us to debate issues such as the defence of multilateralism, as well as conflicts and sources of instability on the Asian continent, such as the continuation of violence in Afghanistan and instability on the Korean peninsula.FOOTAGE OF KING FELIPE VI WELCOMING MINISTERS AT THE PARDO PALACE.
