EU-China Relations: Parliament Calls for Dialogue and Fair Trade
- On Wednesday, the European Parliament voted 454 to 86 to adopt a report demanding a tougher stance on China, warning that relations with Beijing have reached a "critical point" due to economic coercion and support for Russia.
- Lawmakers described Beijing as a "decisive enabler" of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, citing "Chinese diplomatic backing and material assistance that sustains the Russian military-industrial complex" as a primary driver for the policy shift.
- The resolution urges the European Union to "urgently" deploy its Anti-Coercion Instrument if China weaponizes critical dependencies, while calling for reduced reliance on Chinese imports in strategic sectors like semiconductors and electric vehicles.
- Welcoming the Parliament's stance, the World Uyghur Congress noted the report recognizes that 3 million Uyghurs have been subjected to forced labor and mass imprisonment, demanding the release of detainees including scholar Ilham Tohti.
- Strengthening "Global Gateway" partnerships in Africa and Latin America serves as an alternative to China's Belt and Road Initiative, positioning the relationship as increasingly defined by systemic rivalry rather than cooperation.
