    ChinaVoice #2 | China-Europe Relations: A Tipping Point?

    【Episode Description】 Over the past year, European discourse on China has increasingly prioritized concepts such as economic security, de-risking, and industrial resilience, reflecting a significant shift in bilateral dynamics. Since the European Union officially defined China as a partner, competitor and systemic rival in 2019, the relationship has navigated a complex and often turbulent path. What are the structural sources driving current tensions, and how do issues like trade imbalances, investment hesitations, and the Ukraine crisis complicate the landscape? Furthermore, to what extent is Europe’s cautious approach rooted in an over-securitization of economic issues, driven by internal anxieties over sluggish growth and declining industrial competitiveness? As the EU's 27 member states navigate internal divisions to formulate a cohesive policy, maintaining pragmatic engagement remains crucial. In this episode of the ChinaVoice, we deeply engaged in China-Europe relations dissect the realities of European policymaking, the operational environment for Chinese enterprises in Europe, the mechanisms needed to prevent frictions from escalating into strategic confrontation, and the enduring necessity for bilateral cooperation in global governance, green transition and artificial intelligence. 【Host】 SUN Chenghao, Senior Fellow, Center for International Security and Strategy, Tsinghua University 【Guest】 LIANG Linlin, Director of Communication and Research of China Chamber of Commerce to the EU 【Shownotes】 02:24 Is Europe Echoing Washington's China Debate? 05:46 The EU's "Partner, Competitor, Systemic Rival" Framework 10:54 Three Major Sources of Bilateral Tension 13:42 Unpacking Europe's "Irrational Anxiety" and Economic Security 19:24 Internal Debates within the EU on Trade and Tech 24:53 Managing Friction: Dialogues and Mechanisms 30:14 Global Governance: Finding Room for China-EU Cooperation 【Team】 Executive Producer: SUN Chenghao Producer: LI Yining, WANG Yinuo Content Editor: ZHANG Xueyu, LI Yijie, WANG Yexu Graphics Designer: ZHANG Xueyu

    ChinaVoice #1 | Strategic Stability and the Future of China-U.S. Relations

    Episode Description Over the past ten years, the narrative of strategic competition has dominated the development of Sino-U.S. relationship. But at the same time, both China and the U.S. need and are needed to cooperate to solve the geopolitical conflicts and promote global governance. During U.S. President Donald Trump’s visit to China after 9 years, a new concept proposed by China, a constructive China-U.S. relationship of strategic stability, was accepted by the U.S. and laid the foundation for the development of future bilateral relationship. What are the goals and evaluation for China and the U.S. regarding this Summit? Can this new strategic positioning improve Sino-U.S. relationship? As Sino-U.S. relationship has become one of the most important bilateral relationships in the world, keep high-level and institutional communication may itself inject momentum into global peace and development. In the first episode of the ChinaVoice, scholars with extensive Sino-U.S. study experience analyze the outcomes of the summit, the expectations of both countries, the significance of the new strategic positioning, balance between strategic competition and cooperation on global governance, as well as the prospects for bilateral relationship. 【Host】 ·SUN Chenghao, Senior Fellow, Center for International Security and Strategy, Tsinghua University 【Guest】 ·SUN Bingyan, Assistant Professor, Department of International Politics, University of International Relations 【Shownotes】 03:17 Definition of the Summit: Stabilization vs. Temporary Easing 08:26 China’s expectations from the Summit 10:50 The Summit has met China’s target 14:50 The signals released by new strategic positioning 21:29 U.S.’ expectations from the Summit 22:43 Trump takes the Summit seriously and treats China differently 26:06 The G2 Concept and China’s Reluctance 30:12 China and U.
