BRUSSELS, Jun.&nbsp;21&nbsp; -- The European Union (EU) on Saturday welcomed the decision by China to proceed further with the reform of its currency RMB exchange rate regime and to resume the RMB exchange rate flexibility.

The People's Bank of China, China's central bank, earlier on Saturday announced a decision to proceed further with the reform of the exchange rate regime to enhance the flexibility of the RMB's exchange rate.
&quot;The implementation of the decision will help achieve more sustainable growth in the global economy, contribute to reduce external imbalances and strengthen the stability of the international monetary and financial system,&quot; the commission said.
