The EU expects to finish a cooperation settlement with China by 2025. This became introduced via the EU supreme representative Josep Borel. According to him, this document must be followed on the summit with China, to be able to be hung on Monday in the format of a video conference.

Borel admits that achieving an agreement with China will no longer be smooth. He promised to preserve negotiations "until the last minute." This talk is sincerely turning into a tough test for the European community, explains Daniel gross, Director of the Center for European coverage research:

"There is nothing we will do, China has turn out to be too big and is getting bigger every day. And so we can not hope for an alternate in China's behavior. Of course, we are able to say that the more China tramples on human rights, the less open we can be to it, such as in terms of exchange. We will be less supportive of Chinese funding in Europe. But for China itself, those are all secondary troubles. So we can express our dissatisfaction, but we can not certainly change the course of events."

According To Josep Borel, the European Union recommended that the United States create a separate format for discussing strategic challenges from China. The head of European international relations speaks approximately the want to coordinate actions towards Beijing.

"The EU does now not act from a position of hard power, so what it may achieve in solving political issues is a question. On the opposite hand, foreign policy decisions are made at the level of member states, since another question is what it can achieve as a subject of international relations" — Weinan Hu, Center for European policy research.

Chinese Ambassador to the EU Zhang Ming on the eve of the summit called on European countries to mutually beneficial cooperation. According to him, despite political differences, Europe and China have common interests.
