AFP, BREST, France /

The EU and China are planning to hold a summit in late March, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell said on Friday amid concerns over a Chinese blockade of Lithuania’s exports.

“An EU-China summit is planned, at first glance for the end of March. It will give me a chance to travel to China to prepare for it,” Borrell announced after an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brest, France.

The last EU-China summit took place via videoconference in June 2020 between the presidents of the EU institutions and Chinese leaders.

European Council President Charles Michel, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Borrell spoke at the time with Chinese Premier Li Keqiang (李克強) before holding an exchange of views with Chinese President Xi Jinping (習近平).

The summit “will be an important moment to see where we are in our relations with China. There are things that are going well, others less well,” Borrell said.

During the meeting in Brest, the foreign affairs ministers discussed the Chinese actions against Lithuania and their impact on other EU member states, he said.

The ministers expressed complete solidarity with Lithuania and talks are under way to “pursue de-escalation in this crisis,” he said.

In November, China downgraded diplomatic ties with Lithuania and stopped issuing visas there in protest at Vilnius’ decision to allow Taiwan to open a representative office under its own name.

China balks at any official use of the word Taiwan, which it considers part of its territory.

Several Lithuanian companies and business leaders complained last month that China was blocking their exports as their goods were not clearing customs in the country.

EU Trade Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis told a German newspaper that Chinese customs was also not processing goods from other EU countries that contain parts from Lithuania.

The EU is discussing a draft regulation against what it considers coercive and intimidating measures — a tool aimed at punishing quickly any country using economic sanctions to exert pressure against the EU or one of its members.
