"Mr President, China is an important trade partner for Europe, and I firmly believe that our relations must be strengthened, without neglecting the numerous and persistent obstacles to fair, balanced trade.
A new chapter in EU-China trade relations needs to be written, based on reciprocity and compliance with the rules. It is regrettable that China continues to apply non-tariff barriers that limit European companies’ presence in the Chinese market, giving rise to additional costs without creating opportunities for trade. Non-tariff barriers, breaches of intellectual property rights and human rights abuses remain among the biggest problems to solve.
I hope that cooperation with the Chinese Government will eliminate the remaining obstacles by 2016, when the World Trade Organisation is due to grant China market economy status."@en1
