EU trade deficit with China on course to break records
Original: EU trade deficit with China threatens to break records this year
The European Union's trade deficit with China is threatening to reach record levels this year, according to a report by Belga. The growing imbalance reflects rising EU imports of Chinese goods, particularly in sectors where European industry is struggling to compete. The figures are likely to intensify debate in Brussels over trade policy toward Beijing and calls for protective measures.
Why now: Record deficit figures are fueling ongoing political debate in Europe about dependence on Chinese trade and possible EU responses.
