EU and China Hold Urgent High-Level Trade Talks

The EU and China held urgent high-level trade talks via video conference. These talks directly matter for Chinese professionals and business operators in Denmark and Sweden.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen gave her State of the Union speech. She warned of new trade-balancing tools and public procurement restrictions.

EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič then met Chinese Commerce Minister Wang Wentao. They discussed EU-China economic relations and market access. They also discussed Chinese export management and rare earth controls.

Local business operators and researchers should watch evolving regulatory changes closely.
