China’s policy goals and restructuring mean its growth, mostly in domestic consumption, will increasingly come from fields in which EU firms excel. Rather than see China’s industrial transformation as a threat, EU firms should identify opportunities and align their strategies.

The good news is Beijing’s experience shows we can tame second waves in a way that minimises disruption through greater preparedness and understanding. In the next stretch of the battle against the coronavirus, global anti-pandemic efforts need to be smarter and more collaborative.

Since the end of the cold war, the rationales used to justify the binary of East and West have been undercut by globalisation. However, Europe still has a role to play in balancing China and the US, and promoting global cooperation.

Chinese tourist traffic to the world is growing but not the other way round. To decrease its deficit in trade in services and improve the world’s understanding of the nation, China must develop new ways to enhance visitors’ experiences.

China, having benefited tremendously from WTO membership, is now in a position to spearhead WTO reforms as a bridge between developed and developing nations. It won’t be easy but Beijing can get the ball rolling in areas of agreement such as e-commerce regulations and marine plastic pollution.

The Middle East faces a transition to a post-oil economy, impeded by great power interference and inter-regional rifts. Solutions should come within the region, but Beijing is uniquely positioned as a partner, mediator and customer.
