China's President Xi Jinping is embarking on a rare visit to Paris, with French President Emmanuel Macron poised to address pressing issues such as trade imbalances and seek Chinese support regarding the conflict in Ukraine.
However, achieving these objectives during Xi's brief two-day visit to France will prove challenging, given the backdrop of escalating trade tensions between Europe and China.
France is actively supporting a European Union investigation into Chinese exports of electric vehicles, while Beijing's recent initiation of an inquiry into brandy imports, predominantly from France, is widely perceived as retaliatory.
Against this backdrop, Macron's administration is keen to emphasise the necessity of obtaining further assurances from Chinese authorities on trade matters.
Xi's visit marks his first trip to Europe in half a decade, underscoring the significance of the occasion.
US President Joe Biden missed the G20 group photo in Rio due to scheduling issues. Leaders like Xi Jinping and Narendra Modi participated, while Biden, Trudeau, and Meloni took a separate picture later. Officials denied claims linking Biden's absence to Russia's Lavrov. Discussions focused on Ukraine's sovereignty, hunger relief, and Putin's notable absence. The incident highlights logistical challenges during high-profile summits.

In a groundbreaking move, Beijing has successfully launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) into the Pacific Ocean for the first time since 1980. This "routine" test, which China claims is not directed at any specific country, marks a significant shift in its military capabilities and strategy. Analysts suggest the missile is likely a Dong Feng-41, capable of reaching up to 15,000 kilometers. The launch has raised concerns among neighboring nations, highlighting China's growing assertiveness on the global stage.
