Through this website, the EU Delegation provides information on recent events of EU-China diplomatic relations in the most important policy areas. In order to keep up to date on EU-China dialogues and projects, including on high-level visits of EU officials to China and activities organised by the EU Delegation, I invite you to visit our website regularly, to subscribe our press release alerts and follow our social media accounts on Weibo, X/Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

At the EU Delegation, we believe that listening to our Chinese partners and staying in dialogue is critical for the progress of our bilateral relations. I invite you to contact us and take part in the EU-China exchanges.
