Chinese President Xi Jinping has wrapped up his first trip to Europe in five years, visiting France, Serbia and Hungary. The trip came in the middle of mounting trade disputes and security concerns between China and the EU.
On this episode of Zoom In Zoom Out, TaiwanPlus reporter Laurel Stewart sits down with Zsuzsa Anna Ferenczy, the author of “Europe, China, and the Limits of Normative Power,” and a China and Taiwan fellow at Agora Strategy. We first zoom in on the reasons for Xi’s choice of destinations, then zoom out to understand how Russia and the U.S. factor into EU-China relations.
