CEPA | Tim Sweijs & Ron Stoop: Recalibrating Connectivity to Compete Against China
“The Competition is with China, not with Europe.” Securing global trade and technology is more critical than ever. In an article for the Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA), HCSS research director Tim Sweijs and strategic analyst Ron Stoop explore how the US and EU must unite to counter China’s growing influence, protect supply chains, and strengthen economic security. To address these challenges, Sweijs and Stoop urge the US and EU to adopt a coordinated strategy. With rising geopolitical tensions, the US and EU must set aside trade disputes and work together: the challenge is not with each other – the real competition is with China.
