Chinese Commerce Minister Wang Wentao and European Commissioner for Trade and Economic Security Maros Sefcovic met in Paris on Tuesday for what the Commerce Ministry termed "focused, candid and in-depth" discussions.
The duo tackled three pressing trade issues: the European Union's anti-subsidy case targeting Chinese-made electric vehicles, China's anti-dumping investigation into brandy imports from the EU, and evolving export control measures.
While no final decisions were announced, both sides highlighted the value of transparent dialogue in an era of complex trade dynamics. Follow-up talks are planned in the coming months to explore potential paths forward.
As markets keep a close watch, the Paris talks underscore the importance of ongoing engagement to navigate economic headwinds and maintain open channels.
