A high-stakes summit in Beijing marking 50 years of EU-China diplomatic ties was dominated by escalating trade tensions and disagreements over China's stance on Russia's war in Ukraine. European leaders, including Ursula von der Leyen, pressed China to address economic imbalances, open its markets, and reduce its trade surplus, warning that continued inaction could threaten future cooperation. Despite some narrow agreements on climate change and rare earths, the summit yielded little progress on core issues, with both sides acknowledging the relationship is at an 'inflection point.' President Xi Jinping urged the EU to make 'the right strategic choice,' while EU officials stressed the need for a more balanced partnership. The summit highlighted deepening geopolitical rifts, with the EU caught between U.S. trade pressures and China's assertive global posture.
