Can China help Europe achieve ‘greater strategic autonomy’? | DW News

From DW News.

French President Emmanuel Macron met China’s President Xi Jinping in Beijing on Thursday, with talks expected to focus on Ukraine and trade as Europe seeks to recalibrate ties with the world’s second-largest economy. Ahead of his meetings, Macron wrote on X that discussions with the Chinese leader would focus "on peace and economic rebalancing, which the world so desperately needs." At the meeting, Xi said China was willing to work together to "make the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and France more stable." Macron meanwhile said both sides must overcome their differences. "Sometimes there are differences, but it is our responsibility to overcome them for the greater good," Macron told Xi during the meeting.
