China's President Xi Jinping is embarking on a rare visit to Paris, with French President Emmanuel Macron poised to address pressing issues such as trade imbalances and seek Chinese support regarding the conflict in Ukraine.
However, achieving these objectives during Xi's brief two-day visit to France will prove challenging, given the backdrop of escalating trade tensions between Europe and China.
France is actively supporting a European Union investigation into Chinese exports of electric vehicles, while Beijing's recent initiation of an inquiry into brandy imports, predominantly from France, is widely perceived as retaliatory.
Against this backdrop, Macron's administration is keen to emphasise the necessity of obtaining further assurances from Chinese authorities on trade matters.
Xi's visit marks his first trip to Europe in half a decade, underscoring the significance of the occasion.
During a recent Quad Leaders' Summit, President Biden was overheard on a hot mic making revealing comments about Xi Jinping, highlighting concerns over China's aggressive tactics. These candid remarks shed light on the West's strategic planning to counter China's growing influence in the Indo-Pacific region, raising questions about future diplomatic efforts.
