On Nov. 12 in Brussels, officials held the 23rd China‑Belgium‑Luxembourg joint
economic and trade committee meeting. China said bilateral ties have grown
steadily and pointed to cooperation in aviation, port logistics, biopharma and
clean energy. Beijing said it will push China‑Belgium and China‑Luxembourg
economic links toward higher quality and a better structure, and aims to
cultivate new growth areas in services trade, the digital economy and artificial
intelligence. China voiced concern about recent EU trade‑protection measures and
urged Belgian and Luxembourg counterparts to press the EU to engage with China
and resolve disputes via the China‑EU trade and investment consultation
mechanism to stabilize economic relations.
