EU-China Leaders to Convene in Beijing for July Meeting

The upcoming EU-China leaders' meeting will take place in Beijing in late July. A European Commission spokesperson cited logistical reasons for the decision not to hold the meeting in Brussels, following the previous top-level meeting also held in China.

The forthcoming summit between European Union and Chinese leaders is slated for the latter part of July in Beijing, according to a statement from a European Commission spokesperson on Friday.

The decision to return to China for this meeting, rather than holding it in Brussels, stems from logistical considerations, confirmed the spokesperson during a press briefing in Brussels.

This will be a repeat location for EU-China high-level discussions, as the last such meeting was also conducted in China.
