The leaders of China and the European Union should prepare for a summit, says Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi. Bloomberg reports it. As a result, China is increasingly seeking rapprochement with the EU, while ties with the US are actually deteriorating.
Wang Yi made the remarks during a meeting at the Munich security conference, calling on EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell to return “bilateral relations to pre-epidemic levels as soon as possible”. “Both sides should be open to cooperation, fight decoupling and maintain the stability of global supply chains.”
China is increasingly seeking rapprochement with countries for technology cooperation, especially now that the Netherlands and Japan have joined the US in banning the export of advanced chips to China. Among other things, to counter military use by China.

China’s declared ambition could further increase tension with the United States. Especially as Wang told his American equivalent Antony Blinken earlier in the conference that “the United States needs to approach the situation surrounding the spy balloon differently.”
Blinken, in turn, argued that the intrusion into US airspace was an “irresponsible act” that “should never happen again.” He also warned China against helping Russia.
