"Immediately after the ninth EU-China Summit held in 2006, which, according to some experts, was the zenith so far in bilateral relations, there have been various tensions in the relationship between the EU and the People’s Republic, revolving around the unresolved questions very precisely identified by the report. I therefore voted in favour of the report. While, in the sphere of bilateral relations, it is inevitable that countries should define themselves in relation to the other, this is all the more true of China, whose internal tensions are intertwined with foreign and security policy, trade policy, energy policy and monetary policy.
The most attentive observers stress that certain positions adopted by China are often the result of a heated clash between internal positions. Today, the yuan exchange rate, the policy on rare earths and the resurgence of State ownership, with restrictions on the free enterprise zones, are topics for hot debate between differing viewpoints. Therefore, we should remember that a clear and fixed position on Europe’s part could also help to achieve, fairly, a satisfactory solution of the unresolved issues within the Chinese institutions and, at the same time, be more beneficial to us."@en1
