As U.S.-led trade disputes escalate, experts are calling for renewed strategic cooperation between China and the European Union to stabilize global markets. Recent high-level dialogues between Brussels and Beijing have sparked discussions about a potential realignment in international economic partnerships, particularly following former U.S. President Trump's tariff policies.
At a CGTN forum commemorating 50 years of China-EU diplomatic relations, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder of Germany's Schiller Institute, emphasized the urgent need for joint efforts to strengthen multilateral frameworks. "Both sides share responsibility in shaping a stable global order while addressing development gaps in the Global South," she stated during the roundtable discussion.
Observers note that increased political consultations and trade negotiations between China and EU member states reflect growing mutual interests in supply chain resilience and technological innovation. This comes as Europe seeks diversified partnerships amid shifting U.S. trade priorities.
