Navigating EU-China Relations: Challenges and Opportunities.
China's Premier Li Qiang has criticized the European Union's plan to "de-risk" supply chains, stating that dependency is a must in today's economic globalization. Li argued that the EU was not particularly dependent on China, but rather the EU's dependency on high-end technology was even deeper. The comments come ahead of an EU leaders' summit to discuss relations with Beijing, where economic security will be a key topic.
