Mar 23, 2019 | Egmont Royal Institute for International Relations,Tobias Gehrke

Beijing’s influence on Chinese economic entities and other national actors has led to security concerns about critical infrastructure and national security in Europe. The current debate about the security risks of contracting with Chinese technology companies and a new EU regulation on an investment-screening regime reflect a policy response to perceived growing risks from economic dependence. In this Security Policy Brief by the Egmont Royal Institute for International Relations,Tobias Gehrke suggests that Europe’s lack of common priorities makes individual policies vulnerable and insufficient, and suggests three means by which policy reform can support Europe’s resilience and found an effective EU strategy on China.
