After thirty years of bilateral relations, China & the European Union share many relevant political, strategic & economic interests. The convergence of interests became more evident since the end of the Cold War as both the European Union & China stand for a multilateral international order. Also economic relations developed dramatically as China became the first trade partner of the European Union. The formal strategic partnership established between China & the European Union reflects those realities. The tensions over the textile crisis should be seen in this broader framework & should not harm the overall bilateral relationship. Adapted from the source document.
