[00:00:04] of [00:00:09] You're watching TRT World with me John Paul Davis, [00:00:11] a reminder now of our main headlines. Yemen's [00:00:14] ancerolties say they've targeted Riyad's [00:00:18] of international airport and base in the south [00:00:22] of of the country in the past few hours. Saudi [00:00:22] me Arabia has confirmed that Kames Mushad base was targeted and [00:00:26] of says the danger has now passed. It's also vowed a strong response. to recent [00:00:30] hoothy attacks on Riyad's main international airport and [00:00:34] extended the suspension of all flights to and from its capital [00:00:37] city. The event of recent weeks [00:00:41] are serious. Our response must be equally [00:00:45] serious. [00:00:46] of Energy security cannot be taken for [00:00:49] of granted. [00:00:50] of For Saudi Arabia, this circum this circumstances have tested [00:00:54] our infrastructure, our [00:00:57] institution, our people. [00:01:00] of and our resilience, they have also [00:01:04] tested decision made long before the present [00:01:07] crisis. An Israeli drone attack [00:01:11] has targeted [00:01:12] a refugee camp in the south of Gaza, killing at least two Palestinians. [00:01:16] Paramedics [00:01:17] of say several people were wounded in the strike on the camp near Raffa, which is home [00:01:21] to [00:01:21] of thousands of Palestinians who've been displaced multiple times during Israel's [00:01:25] three-year war. US immigration [00:01:29] officials. raided the home of Somali born Congresswoman Ilan [00:01:32] Homer in the early [00:01:34] of hours of Monday. Omar is described or described the raid as [00:01:38] an active intimidation vowing [00:01:40] in not to be silenced. The investigation reportedly concerns her [00:01:44] immigration [00:01:46] a paperwork. Russia is continuing to attack Ukraine's [00:01:49] energy facilities that despite the so-called energy cease fire [00:01:53] declared by US President Donald Trump on Sunday. Russia has yet to [00:01:57] comment on Trump's claim, but Ukrainian president. Zelensky says [00:02:01] several gas facilities were hit since his cease far [00:02:04] announcement, [00:02:08] and hundreds of supermarkets in France have been hit by an unprecedented cyber [00:02:12] attack that raised fridge and freezer temperatures to [00:02:16] in 50 of degrees celsius, all fires and widespread food spoilage have [00:02:20] been reported with losses [00:02:21] of estimated at the millions of dollars. Some [00:02:23] of the country's biggest supermarket change were hit including Carfour, which [00:02:27] said 80 of its stores [00:02:29] me were affected. and the news continues on [00:02:33] TRT World after the [00:02:37] of newsmakers. [00:02:47] After two days of talks in Beijing, have the EU and [00:02:51] China averted a trade war. Intensive consultations [00:02:55] may cut EU imports of Chinese EVs by half, but does that ease [00:02:59] Beijing's complaints? of protectionism and can the adjustment help [00:03:03] correct Europe's $1 billion a day trade deficit [00:03:12] in [00:03:14] of [00:03:27] When US President Trump first launched his tariff trade. war, some [00:03:30] predicted the EU and [00:03:32] of China would lean into each other to offset the damage. Instead, the two [00:03:36] a are now working to avert a trade war [00:03:42] of of their own. Over the weekend, crucial talks in Beijing produced what seem like some break-through measures, but no break-through deal. [00:03:46] China feels it's being blamed for the EU's economic problems when Beijing [00:03:49] should be seen as a partner in solving them, but can the two [00:03:53] really find a balance that benefits all, with a free-market model on one [00:03:57] side, and a massive mostly state control. economy on the [00:04:01] other. Here's a look: trade wars between China and the [00:04:04] US may have received more headline coverage, but the EU [00:04:08] has also grown increasingly wary of trade imbalances with [00:04:12] China in recent years. As massive tariffs hit [00:04:16] Chinese exports to the US, China increasingly turned [00:04:19] of to Europe as an export market, but that presented [00:04:23] Europe with a problem. 1 billion Euros every [00:04:27] day. That was Europe's trade deficit with. china last [00:04:30] year and this gap is growing even further. for [00:04:34] too long we have opened our market without getting the same access in [00:04:38] china. for too long we have accepted [00:04:42] unfair competition while European companies paid the [00:04:45] price and for too long we have watched china [00:04:49] test the limits of international law. the European [00:04:53] parliament voted in october to touffen its stance on [00:04:57] china. the 27 nation block. has long considered [00:05:01] China's massive subsidies and surplus [00:05:04] a exports, especially in car manufacturing as a major [00:05:07] threat to European industries, but over the weekend, [00:05:11] EU-China trade. talks may [00:05:13] have helped soothe European anxieties. China's [00:05:17] commerce ministry said the two sides agreed to explore the [00:05:20] possibility of reducing tariffs on certain goods [00:05:24] within the World Trade Organization [00:05:26] Framework. The frequency and effectiveness [00:05:30] these consultations have met our expectations. Both teams have [00:05:34] engaged in very intensive and challenging discussions. [00:05:37] Announcing the deal in Beijing, the EU trade commissioner said China [00:05:41] had a reed to limit exports of hybrid electric [00:05:45] vehicles after two days of high stakes [00:05:48] negotiations. looking at the the period of four years [00:05:52] and according to the projection we [00:05:55] have that's more than a halfing [00:05:58] the exports of [00:06:02] hybrids and plugging hybrids into the [00:06:06] European Union under no change scenario so i think [00:06:09] by by this step we are actually preventing. several millions [00:06:13] of cars [00:06:16] exports from China to the European Union. In 2024, the [00:06:20] EU imposed tariffs on fully electric Chinese [00:06:23] vehicles, but China got around that by exporting hybrid [00:06:27] electric vehicles instead. In the first half of 2026, [00:06:31] Chinese EVs took around 10% the EU [00:06:34] market, but for hybrids and specifically [00:06:38] plug-in hybrid vehicles, one in four were Chinese brands. [00:06:43] but if Brussels and all 27 nations approved the deal later this [00:06:46] week, Chinese EV exports would fall to [00:06:49] around 350,000, cut by more [00:06:53] than half the projected exports over a 4-year period, [00:06:57] starting at the end of 2027. China's commerce [00:07:01] ministry said on Monday that the deal ensured Chinese [00:07:04] companies had room to export and be stable [00:07:08] while addressing the EU's realistic concerns, but [00:07:12] Concerns about China extend well beyond electric [00:07:15] cars. China has a critical chokehold on rare earth [00:07:19] minerals which are crucial for manufacturing everything from [00:07:23] computer chips to green energy infrastructure to weapons [00:07:27] and complex technology. Brussels has [00:07:30] proposed several measures to limit Chinese companies [00:07:33] access to Europe's 450 million [00:07:37] strong consumer market, but Europe provides Beijing [00:07:41] a useful outlet for overproduction, [00:07:45] and Europe also wants Beijing to open up Chinese markets [00:07:49] to billions of dollars of European products. The true [00:07:53] test of EU-Chinese trade corporation lies [00:07:56] not just in electric vehicle agreements alone. [00:08:00] The EU needs these vehicle sector agreements to [00:08:03] signal further agreements yet to [00:08:31] being with me, Earl, I'll start with you, you when you look at the [00:08:33] numbers, of course the most standout statistic [00:08:37] is that $1 billion a day trade deficit [00:08:41] between the EU and china, but is is that alone, [00:08:45] you know, enough for the EU to say that China is clearly [00:08:49] behaving unfairly, or is that kind of shock headline, actually a bit [00:08:52] deceptive? It's a great question, Andrean, and it's [00:08:56] wonderful to to to be here with you again, um, I think it's [00:09:00] fundamentally important to understand that the one billion is is really [00:09:03] headline news in many ways, there are fundamental [00:09:07] issues with both the EU and China [00:09:10] in terms of trade. but I think it's important for us [00:09:14] to to segregate their their untrade trade, unfair [00:09:18] trade practices, but there's also the the basic notion that China [00:09:22] has historically been able to produce goods at cheaper prices [00:09:26] and that alone does not necessarily imply unfair [00:09:30] trade practices. one the concerns that we're [00:09:33] seeing now is countries like Germany that are [00:09:37] seeing something like a the the US uh the city group [00:09:41] president said that on her recent visit to Germany and Germany was [00:09:45] losing something like 10,000 jobs a day due to [00:09:49] unfair trade practices, if you do the math that's about 120,00 jobs [00:09:53] a year, so that's significantly that's a significant issues [00:09:56] when you look at the issue of Chinese EVs um [00:09:59] historically um countries like Germany, [00:10:03] Volkswagen for example where the were the industry standard um [00:10:06] for for for cars over the last 40 years, however they weren't [00:10:10] able to adopt, [00:10:12] make the... necessary [00:10:13] changes to shift from auto manufacturing into evs and as result [00:10:17] Chinese local Chinese EVs were [00:10:20] able to significantly take over the market make the [00:10:24] necessary. changes so I think it's important to understand that [00:10:27] that that dichotomy, not necessarily there are [00:10:31] clear and inherent um just because there's [00:10:35] a trade imbalance does not necessarily imply trade [00:10:38] um unfair trade practices got it so I mean [00:10:42] China you're saying in the case especially of EVs it it managed to [00:10:46] innovate quickly so let ask yeah what do you [00:10:50] make what do you make first of all of the talks that just concluded in [00:10:53] Beijing and particularly the focus on EVs [00:10:56] in the end [00:10:57] that ended up being the headline uh as far as results were [00:11:00] concerned, will it now hurt Chinese [00:11:04] manufacturing, I mean can Beijing afford it? go [00:11:07] ahead. well, I think um, I think, [00:11:11] as mentioned before a trade imbalance, I [00:11:14] doesn't automatically mean unfair trade practice, and also [00:11:18] actually reflects, what European business and consumers [00:11:22] choose to buy, many European consumers. by Chinese electrical [00:11:26] vehicles, batteries and even solar panels, because they [00:11:30] offer a competitive price and a good quality, [00:11:34] so you know take BYD, for example, European drivers in [00:11:37] Germany, the UK, France and Norway are choosing [00:11:41] his cars because the price and the technology, and the company is [00:11:44] now in building a plant in Hungary, which [00:11:47] means will bring a lot of European jobs and also [00:11:51] there is uh MG is started as a British British. brand [00:11:55] morris on garages and today is Chinese owned and [00:11:59] one the top selling Chinese owned car brands in Europe and many European [00:12:03] drivers don't even realize it and all and all this you can [00:12:07] help Europe achieve its own uh green transition goals as [00:12:10] well so you know I think uh China's [00:12:13] competitiveness didn't happen and also China's competitiveness didn't [00:12:17] happen overnight it's the result of decades of investment [00:12:21] in infrastructure supply chains talent and [00:12:25] information combined with intense competition in its own [00:12:29] domestic market, so Europe has its own challenges [00:12:32] including high energy costs right now and [00:12:35] slower and slower industrial innovation, these are real [00:12:39] issues, but ts won't [00:12:40] you know solve them, so I think protecting your market doesn't [00:12:44] automatically make your own industries more competitive, it can simply mean [00:12:48] you higher costs for consumers and more even more [00:12:52] expensive green transition, so let ask: then, I mean, is the [00:12:56] EU in part, to blame for its losses here, and is [00:13:00] there a risk that it will actually punish [00:13:03] consumers who prefer cheaper, but well-made [00:13:07] Chinese models, according especially to what Serena was saying, uh, is it [00:13:11] ready to punish consumers to create jobs? [00:13:15] Well, the risk is there. I think that Europe [00:13:18] spent decades consolidating the EU and the euro and we [00:13:22] failed to recognize that China was becoming... huge [00:13:25] superpower with a high level of innovation, with huge, [00:13:29] of course economies of skills and suddenly we [00:13:33] do realize that we had trouble, but the other thing is that [00:13:37] referring to a question, we thought i would [00:13:41] say 25 years ago that think to the euro there [00:13:45] would be huge industrial consolidation in [00:13:48] Europe, we thought that we would have huge chemistry [00:13:52] industries, but name it in the banking. world, [00:13:55] insurance, chemistry, all them, we failed to [00:13:59] consolidate companies and we are still living with nation states, [00:14:03] meaning that some countries are becoming weaker than other ones, france is a good [00:14:07] example of that, and so we are more open to Chinese [00:14:10] goods then we could have been if we had consolidated the [00:14:14] EU, so I think that [00:14:16] fundamentally, unless Europe [00:14:19] decides to consolidate its own industries, [00:14:23] will he will be in? with China, and when I [00:14:27] walk down the streets in Brussels, I see more and more day by [00:14:31] day Chinese cars, because as you just mentioned, people would [00:14:35] prefer high quality and cheaper cars than German cars, but European [00:14:38] industrial consolidation, that is a big ask. [00:14:42] Bruno, I'm going to stick with you for second, because meanwhile EU [00:14:46] ministers and representatives are back at work today and Brussels after these [00:14:50] talks, what does the EU, what are they thinking [00:14:53] now, and our EU [00:14:55] member states at least united on an approach to [00:14:58] China? I think they are not [00:15:01] united, especially because some [00:15:05] countries like Germany will will try to find bilateral [00:15:09] agreements with China, that's a big danger for the EU as a [00:15:12] whole, but also [00:15:14] because we need to embrace [00:15:18] globalization, and we cannot do that with weak [00:15:21] oppositions, we cannot do that with [00:15:24] the nation state. as we are acting today, so I think that Europe will [00:15:28] still be at risk, and I hope that some EU [00:15:31] countries will not prefer [00:15:34] protectionism, and we see that no. emerging in [00:15:38] Germany, but also in France, because that would be the end the [00:15:42] intra-european globalization, but also with the extra [00:15:45] European globalization, so [00:15:48] there was a huge thinking process that should be in place in Europe, and [00:15:52] also the last thing I would like to add is that we had two years [00:15:55] ago, commissioner dragi, used to be the [00:15:59] president the ECB, published his famous [00:16:02] report, since then nothing has been done, although he was mentioning [00:16:06] that innovation was key to success, we are still nowhere, [00:16:09] so we we are really facing huge, huge [00:16:12] changes. okay, i can see you [00:16:16] notding, so so you agree as per [00:16:20] what challenges the EU is fundamentally facing and not just its [00:16:24] economy, but the health the EU-china trade, [00:16:28] the EU-China trade relationship uh, and how that affects the entire [00:16:32] EU? absolutely, and and it's a clear balancing [00:16:36] act, I would agree with with Bruno, one the things right now is that [00:16:39] Europe is not united, I mean you have Germany [00:16:43] in many ways trying to head um visa v the [00:16:47] United States um and trying to bargain for better [00:16:50] reciprocity with the Chinese market um and at the [00:16:54] same time uh while I agree with Serena that there [00:16:58] are um China has made huge [00:17:01] strides uh in their EV market, I mean there are [00:17:05] clear examples where China. has used anti-dumping [00:17:09] duties flooding the market with with cheap um [00:17:13] products below their normal value um and that has [00:17:17] an impact and or um stealing intellectual property [00:17:21] rights now I think it is important that we define uh and and have [00:17:24] clear evidence of those and when that there are those [00:17:28] infractions that the EU be able to [00:17:31] um do investigations into these [00:17:34] Chinese EV vehicles the batteries [00:17:38] themselves, but impose countervailing duties. i think the [00:17:42] problem, the [00:17:43] the the issues that have played the European Union, they that they they've [00:17:47] operated too slow, they took invest take [00:17:51] investigations for example, they first notified, they [00:17:54] concluded in october 24 that there were these [00:17:58] investigations, but then the official announcements on price [00:18:02] commitments came out in January 2026, so i think it's important for [00:18:06] europe to be able. to move faster, be more united [00:18:10] when when when bargating and negotiating with China and really [00:18:14] address these these these fundamental concerns. Right. Sarena, [00:18:18] I want your response to that, and does it also come down to [00:18:22] the difficulty in trying to reconcile a free market system that is the [00:18:25] EU with, a state-controlled economy, so that they can [00:18:29] try to trade more fairly, [00:18:31] but at such huge scale. [00:18:35] Well, as a mentioned. Maybe Europe should be [00:18:38] like united uh more in in you [00:18:42] know with dealing with the China, but what what I want to say when it [00:18:46] comes to China eU relations, especially the so-called [00:18:50] deal risking with China, even there's promoting [00:18:54] some uh sort sort of wider EU China trade wars, I [00:18:58] think the risk is real, but I think we need to be more [00:19:02] clear about how that risk develops, because China, [00:19:05] Beijing has consistently. that it doesn't want a trade war and [00:19:09] prefers to resolve differences through dialogue and negotiation which the [00:19:13] you know dialogue has just happened you know a [00:19:17] couple of days ago when EU and China has reached a very [00:19:20] good understanding of a hyber vehicles [00:19:24] and and medical imports exports and etc. but that doesn't [00:19:28] mean China will simply accept measures that undermine is [00:19:31] legitimate interests if the EU expends its um trade [00:19:35] defense measures China will have to respond. we've already [00:19:38] seen the that dynamic in China's anti-doping [00:19:42] investigation into imports of PNT from the EU, [00:19:46] these are responses to specific trade measures, not [00:19:49] escalation for the sake of for the sake of [00:19:53] escalation, and that's said, I think if there's [00:19:56] a wide wider trade war is still avoidable, [00:20:00] because [00:20:01] you know the economic ties are simply too deep between China and the [00:20:04] EU. European manufacturers depend on Chines. [00:20:07] components, materials and batteries, while Chinese [00:20:11] exports rely on the European market, of course, so disrupting those [00:20:15] links will be hurt business and consumers on both side, [00:20:19] so um, I'd also be careful about how we use uh the [00:20:22] term derisking, as I mentioned earlier, if measures keep [00:20:26] expanding across sectors such as steel, medical [00:20:30] devices, raw materials and automobiles, they may [00:20:34] end up [00:20:34] you know creating the very uncertainty, and they are which [00:20:38] they are supposed to reduce, so I think so far the [00:20:42] biggest danger isn't necessarily when dramatic breakdown [00:20:46] between China and EU and it's a gradual escalation with each. [00:20:50] side, you adding new restrictions until the costs become [00:20:54] too high and the relationship becomes much harder to [00:20:57] repair. right, there are so many measures to look at [00:21:01] here, and bruno, you know, and we see over the weekend really, as we [00:21:05] said, the big big headline was that there was this [00:21:08] agreement that looks like it will be approved, specifically on [00:21:12] EVs, so when we talk about EVs, there's another question [00:21:16] I want to ask about whether it unfairly benefits. [00:21:20] certain EU producer countries to the point that maybe it [00:21:24] won't necessarily pass, because it would [00:21:27] hurt consumers in other EU countries that would [00:21:31] prefer to buy those cheaper Chinese cars that don't have [00:21:35] the manufacturing base there, so is this, [00:21:39] even this one thing [00:21:40] we got out the weekend talks, is that a given that it [00:21:44] will pass? you [00:21:47] know, the first point and referring. whana just [00:21:51] mentioned, i think that Europe cannot afford a trade war with China, [00:21:55] that would be detrimental for both parties, and as you [00:21:58] rightly mention, the ev, [00:22:02] you know, provision may not pass, [00:22:05] also because some country would probably benefit from that, [00:22:09] but other ones no, so I'm talking about countries like France or [00:22:13] Spain, Portugal, Italy, so I would be very careful about [00:22:16] EVs, the problem, I think I would' [00:22:20] China I would look at the problem with another angle, you [00:22:23] know, if we are today competing about [00:22:26] with the EVs, the question is to know [00:22:29] how does it come that Europe could not increase its innovation level up to [00:22:33] the one of China? That's a real question, so I do see [00:22:37] competition as a way to force Europe to [00:22:40] increase its exposure to China and maybe to [00:22:43] cooperate on the grounds of innovation, that's key, that's the [00:22:47] real issue, because competing on just... vehicles or [00:22:51] devices doesn't solve any problem, the problem is that [00:22:55] we need to innovate together and maybe open both markets each [00:22:58] other, including evs, that would be the solution to me, it's it's [00:23:02] a liberal answer, but i think it it may work a globalized [00:23:06] world, it may work, do you think they can honestly do it, do you think [00:23:10] there's enough cohesion to kind of get to that level and agree on on that common [00:23:13] approach? well, if we do not reach [00:23:17] European cohesion on that. "it means that the [00:23:21] problem will get worse and worse in the coming years, [00:23:25] so to today, today, because the dialogue with [00:23:29] with China, that's i would say a [00:23:32] warning that we have to do more together, [00:23:36] consolidate our own industries and then try to keep [00:23:40] up with China on the ground of innovation. okay, earl, [00:23:43] you know, the EU obviously is trying to up its own leverage in in [00:23:47] its trade talks with China, just just..." [00:23:50] position, just the United States is trying its own very unique approach with [00:23:53] China, you know, much more [00:23:56] iron-fisted tariff but from [00:23:58] intensive your assessment, do you think the EU is [00:24:02] a better position in its trade relationship with China than [00:24:06] the US or vice versa, or they are they in the same [00:24:08] court? I think the [00:24:12] issue with Europe is that it's when you're when you're [00:24:16] negotiating with so many different countries, it it's hard... to [00:24:20] get cohesion, the United States can in many ways make [00:24:23] unilateral decisions um its own, [00:24:27] um, I so so from that standpoint [00:24:29] I think uh the European Union in terms their their [00:24:32] decision-making process and the regulations that are involved [00:24:36] particularly industries like automotives takes [00:24:39] years to to kind of implement refine and and make [00:24:42] decisions on that being said, I do agree with with [00:24:46] Bruno's part, Bruno's point that a... [00:24:50] protracted trade war between [00:24:53] Europe and China would be catastrophic, [00:24:57] would would would be horrible for both Europe and for China. [00:25:01] Um, Europe's core manufacturing base, you've [00:25:04] seen, just this year alone, almost Volkswagen announced [00:25:08] almost 100,00 um people in terms of layoffs. China [00:25:12] is also struggling in terms of almost 20% uh [00:25:16] with with youth unemployment, so I think it is incredibly. [00:25:21] important that both Europe and China find a [00:25:24] way to to um have one [00:25:28] concrete and sustained talks right on on [00:25:32] on on very [00:25:33] you know specific ways that they can bring the the the [00:25:37] the [00:25:37] the the tariffs down and engage more in in in dialogue, I [00:25:41] think Europe needs the right balance of both sticks [00:25:45] and carrots um they need the right types [00:25:48] of um um, you know, if [00:25:52] if China is not adhering to their [00:25:55] agreed um, agreements, they need the right [00:25:59] mechanisms to be able to enforce China to to. [00:26:14] fragmented uh in many ways and China comes from very [00:26:18] strong position of knowing exactly what it wants and and what kind of leverage it [00:26:21] has uh so it's it's hard to see there's Bruno has painted [00:26:25] very clear picture of what Europe should do but it's I it's hard to see [00:26:29] how that's going to manifest going forward but Serena. last question [00:26:33] actually for you, because on the other side there are also these accusations that China [00:26:37] has kind of been weaponizing rare earths and that it's again using [00:26:41] its its advantages there to play [00:26:44] unfairly according to Europe. where do you see that [00:26:47] going? well, as I [00:26:51] mentioned earlier, China has consistently [00:26:55] said it doesn't want of trade war, which [00:26:58] you know is clearly stated its position, and also that ' [00:27:02] that the dynamic in China's anti-doping [00:27:06] investigation into imports of PNT from from the EU, I think [00:27:09] these these responses are to specific measures are not [00:27:13] escalation for the sake of escalation and also [00:27:17] you know the latest understanding shows that there [00:27:20] are there's still room for dialogue and compromises, so the key now [00:27:24] is to [00:27:25] you know whether both sides can turn that concrete progress [00:27:29] before tensions esc escalate further, [00:27:41] that, as I was mentioning, a globalized world, we [00:27:44] cooperate, need to and also the other thing is that Europe is facing [00:27:48] different competition coming from the US, so I think that we need to [00:27:52] strengthen our links with China, that's one thing, we need to [00:27:55] consolidate countries across [00:27:57] industrial agreements and [00:28:01] that will [00:28:02] be the key. for success for both parties, if we don't do that, we will be five [00:28:06] years on the road with the same issues and the situation will be worse than in [00:28:09] Europe. think at France, the industry in France [00:28:13] accounts for less than 10% the GDP, if we don't do anything, it [00:28:17] will be five or 6% on the [00:28:29] us as well, remember you can follow us on social media and do be sure. subscribe to our [00:28:33] youtube channel, i'm Andrea sanky, we'll see you next [00:28:35] time.
