« Chinese strategy expected to focus on dealing country-by-country, taking advantage of lack of common views »

« ”With 27 member states, the EU is an organization that cannot reach consensus on most issues,” said Julian Kuo, a Taiwanese political scientist and former legislator. 
Kuo said this is why China had invited leaders of Germany, France, the Netherlands and Spain to visit Beijing while Premier Li Qiang visited Ireland and Switzerland earlier this month. He said China will maintain dialogue with European countries individually and form a bilateral relationship with each of them.
