Sino-EU multilateralism relation

Abstract

This paper explores the relationship between China and the EU. In specific, it explores the Sino-EU in economic activities. China’s economic activities include several factors, primarily oriented to foreign direct investment (FDI) and the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The acts of China have caused certain countries to become more apprehensive of China and its success on this concern because of China’s development. The study focuses on Chinese initiatives in different EU countries, including Germany, Italy, and France. The participation of these three countries is specifically linked to the presence of Italy as a more powerful EU member nation in the BRI, as well as Germany and France. Therefore, these responses to this inclusion and implications, along with proceedings of China and the two nations, would show the EU’s position in this regard. This study postulates that China’s lack of compromise, conformity with her peers, poses questions about China’s understanding, doubts that China can very well not bear, and should potentially be cautious because of the deteriorating partnership with the US.
