"Mr President, our report calls on the European Union and China to base economic relations on partnership and mutual benefits. I support this call. Striking a balance in mutual trade would lead to shared development as a result of mutual benefits. Despite clear progress, however, existing trade barriers still make it impossible to exploit the potential for economic cooperation. European companies still face a range of tariff and non-tariff barriers which hamper access to Chinese markets. Small and medium-sized enterprises in particular lack the capacity to deal with the bureaucratic certification requirements or to take part in public tenders.
European consumers, on the other hand, are interested in the safety of the Chinese products flowing onto the common European market. It is necessary to strengthen cooperation with the Chinese authorities in the area of health protection. Let us therefore take the opportunity to convey our concerns to China regarding artificially created trade barriers and the general lack of transparency. Europe and China can move towards developing an equal and balanced partnership only through mutual cooperation and a coordinated approach."@en1
