Abstract

ABSTRACTAs China's influence rises to that of a global power, its relations within the Washington–Beijing–Brussels “strategic triangle” are constantly being renegotiated. What are the implications of China's greater involvement with Europe? What will be the impact of China's investments in Central Eastern Europe and the Chinese-led institutionalization of the “16 + 1”? Will Beijing continue to play European Union (EU) member states off one another as they compete for Chinese foreign direct investment? How will China's growing presence in the Arctic affect EU and U.S. interests? Will Europe continue to be a source of high-tech, dual-use technology that China cannot obtain from the United States? How does China perceive the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) now under negotiation between the EU and the United States? This article examines EU–China areas of cooperation and collision of interests as China's economic and political influence continues to grow in Europe.
