In face of a clear-cut breach of #UNCharter, 141 countries condemned Russia’s aggression & reaffirmed support to the Charter 1 year ago and yesterday again. We gathered today in Beijing with the same determination to ensure that aggression fails and international law prevails.

Human rights lawyer Qin Yongpei, detained since October 2019 and tried in December 2021, will hear the verdict against him tomorrow. No one should be punished for protecting and exercising rights. #HumanRights

中方已判处(两名)人权律师许志永和丁家喜, 分别判处有期徒刑14年和12年。两位呼吁提高中国的透明度和民主。联合国任意拘留问题工作组认为他们是被任意拘留的。欧盟呼吁立即无条件释放他们。

I was supposed to be in Beijing today to discuss EU-China relations, and regional and global issues, but had to cancel my visit. Read my blog post with key messages I intended to convey on EU-China relations in the current geopolitical context: europa.eu/!d3JRgC

Unacceptable remarks of the Chinese Ambassador to France questioning the sovereignty of the countries which became independent with the end of the Soviet Union in 1991. The EU can only suppose these declarations do not represent China’s official policy.

Our policies towards China need to change because China is changing. Decoupling from China is neither viable nor in our interest. Leaders united behind the idea of de-risking, but not decoupling ↓
