The 25th EU-China summit in Beijing, marking 50 years of diplomatic relations, exposed deepening rifts between the two powers. Despite a joint pledge to cooperate on climate change, leaders failed to bridge major divides over trade imbalances, China's stance on the Ukraine war, and broader geopolitical tensions. The summit was shortened and marked by tense exchanges, with both sides criticizing each other's policies and actions.

The outcome highlights a critical 'inflection point' in EU-China ties, with limited progress and growing uncertainty about future cooperation.
