Macron demanded that China invest in Europe

European industry is "in a life-and-death struggle." This was stated by French President Emmanuel Macron after returning from his official visit to Beijing.

According to him, the continent is sandwiched between a competitive China and a protectionist United States.

"The Chinese should do in Europe what the Europeans did 25 years ago by investing in China," he said.

Recall the trade deficit The EU with China in 2024 amounted to 306 billion euros. At the same time, European exports amounted to 213 billion euros, and imports — 519 billion euros. Earlier, Macron had already threatened China with European sanctions.
