Pressing Beijing over the EU&#8217;s big trade deficit with China, EU leaders said Europe would not tolerate &#8220;unfair competition&#8221; from China, and Beijing warned the EU that it expected prudence from Brussels when introducing &#8220;restrictive&#8221; trade policies. There was also no sign that the EU had made any progress in persuading China to use its influence on Russia more to end the Ukraine war &#8211; a source of tension in EU-China ties &#8211; and to help stop Moscow getting around sanctions over the war.<\/p>\n<p>China and the EU have a shared interest in a stable and constructive relationship based on respect for the international rule-based order, European Council President Charles Michel told a press conference after the EU delegation met Chinese President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Qiang. &#8220;We need to make our trade and economic relationship more reciprocal and balanced,&#8221; Michel said, adding that the bloc expects China to take more concrete actions to increase market access for foreign companies.<\/p>\n<p>European Council President Ursula von der Leyen said the sides discussed root causes of their trade imbalance, from a lack of access to the Chinese market and preferential treatment to Chinese firms, to overcapacities in Chinese production. &#8220;Politically, European leaders will not be able to tolerate that our industrial base is undermined by unfair competition,&#8221; she said. The EU says its nearly 400-billion-euro ($431.7-billion) trade deficit with China reflects restrictions on EU businesses operating there.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/top-eu-officials-meet-with-xi-china-summit-with-low-expectations-2023-12-07\/\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/top-eu-officials-meet-with-xi-china-summit-with-low-expectations-2023-12-07\/\">Reuters<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/china-and-eu-leaders-agree-on-need-of-balanced-trade-ties\/\">China and EU leaders agree on need of \u2018balanced\u2019 trade ties<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[9623,758,555,274,12562],"class_list":["post-119322","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-balance","tag-china","tag-csr-news-en","tag-eu","tag-trade-ties"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119322","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119322"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119322\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119322"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119322"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119322"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
