Radosław Sikorski is back at the helm of Polish MFA!
What does this mean for 🇵🇱 #China policy? Likely a more 🇪🇺 grounded approach.
In 2021 (pre-🇷🇺 invasion) I had a pleasure to discuss w/him his take on 🇨🇳 & @eppgroup.bsky.social China strategy he wrote.

👉What to expect & to do
📍The summits have become platforms for exchanging positions and damage control rather than developing positive agenda - joint statement again unlikely
📍#EU should communicate clearly on de-risking and points of contention (including #China-#Russia!)

What to expect & what does🇨🇳want to achieve?
Strategic trust or stalling?
