[Ministry of Foreign Affairs: China-Europe industrial and supply chains are deeply integrated and interdependent, and the economic and trade relations between the two sides are essentially mutually beneficial and win-win] October 6, 2026. On October 6, 2026, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun answered reporters’ questions. Bloomberg: According to reports, Germany and France sent a letter to European Commission President von der Leyen, calling for the EU to be given new powers to cancel access to the European single market for countries that disrupt trade relations. The letter also proposes the establishment of a mechanism to promote Europe to reduce its dependence on foreign countries in multiple supply chains. The letter did not name China, but the EU is currently studying adjustments to its trade relations with China. What is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ comment on this? Will this have an impact on the visit to China later this week by European Commission Commissioner for Trade and Economic Security Sefcovic?
Guo Jiakun: The industrial and supply chains of China and Europe are deeply integrated and interdependent. The economic and trade relations between the two sides are essentially mutually beneficial and win-win. It is hoped that the EU and China will meet each other halfway, resolve each other's concerns through dialogue and consultation, jointly maintain the stability and smoothness of the global production and supply chain, and promote the healthy and stable development of China-EU economic and trade relations. Regarding the specific questions you mentioned, please refer to the Chinese competent authorities.
