"Mr President, China already determines the state of the global economy. It regularly achieves growth of 10%, and will be the strongest economy in the world by the middle of this century. Policies in relation to Beijing thus need to be based on a carefully developed strategy, looking many years ahead. As China’s largest trade partner at present and the main recipient of Chinese products, the European Union must create trade relations based on an equal partnership, which will bring benefits to both parties.
The report takes a range of factors into account which will help to achieve this objective. The most important of these is the call for the abolition of trade barriers as regards access to the Chinese market. Poor protection of intellectual property rights is also a problem, making it difficult to invest in Chinese enterprises that offer advanced technologies. Chinese policies on raw materials, which clearly discriminate against European counterparties, also cause problems for this sector. In the hope of consistently strengthening the EU’s position in relations with Beijing, I support this report."@en1
