"Madam President, it is now a fact of life that China, already the second economic and exporting power in the world, is moving towards the status of a superpower, forcing the US to pay it increasing attention. Consequently, Europe will soon have to compete with China for the favours of the US, while its power of attraction is fading away.
Under the circumstances, the EU’s own relations with China are given even more weight, not only commercially and economically, but politically, and perhaps even militarily too. However, in order for that to happen, we need to overcome the apparent division of labour between the institutions of the EU, often entrusted to play the ‘bad cop’ role in relations with China, and the individual member countries competing for the role of ‘good cop’ in their relations with this rising superpower."@en1
