China has lifted sanctions on five current and former Members of the European Parliament, signaling a move to ease tensions with the European Union and revive stalled trade negotiations.
China has announced plans to lift sanctions on five current and former Members of the European Parliament , originally imposed in 2021 in response to EU criticism of China’s human rights practices. The move is widely seen as an effort to thaw strained diplomatic ties with the European Union and reopen dialogue on trade, particularly the long stalled Comprehensive Agreement on Investment.
The targeted MEPs had been barred from entering China and prohibited from engaging with Chinese institutions. These sanctions had been a major obstacle to advancing economic and political engagement between the EU and China.
While the decision to lift sanctions appears aimed at boosting / re energizing bilateral trade discussions, it comes at a time of growing economic pressure on China amid escalating trade tensions with the United States. Though Beijing has not explicitly linked the move to the current US -China trade conflict, according to some analysts this could be seen as China’s effort to strengthen relations with other key global partners as part of a diversified diplomatic strategy.
