Navigating the EU's Complex Relationship with China
TL;DR Summary
Lithuania's Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis has warned that the EU must prepare for the risk of a potential "de-coupling" from China, similar to the break with Moscow over Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2014. While not advocating for a de-coupling, Landsbergis pointed to the need for the EU to be prepared for a potential deterioration in relations with China, particularly if conflict were to erupt over Taiwan. The EU has been struggling to recalibrate its relations with China, with some leaders calling for a "de-risking" but not a de-coupling from China.
