"China has now turned the page on the era of 'reform and opening' and is moving into a new era of security and control," von der Leyen told EU lawmakers. 

She underlined the need for the EU to carve out its "own distinct European approach" for dealing with China. 

She noted decoupling with China was not "viable" and "desirable," but stressed that there's "clearly a need for Europe to work on de-risking some important and sensitive parts of our relationship" with Beijing.  -- 欧洲不想于中国脱钩 (脱不脱要看中国了)

During the trip, von der Leyen warned Chinese President Xi Jinping against supporting Russia's war in Ukraine by supplying Moscow with weapons.

European leaders have sought Xi's help in ending the war, but they don't view Beijing as a key mediator given its "no-limits" friendship with Moscow.

The EU is also worried about a military escalation in the Taiwan Strait. Beijing views self-ruled Taiwan as a Chinese province and has vowed to reunite it with the mainland, even by using force if necessary.

China launched military drills around the democratic island just after von der Leyen and Macron left, following a meeting between Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen and US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in California.

Von der Leyen said on Tuesday that the EU's "one-China policy is longstanding."

"We have consistently called for peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and we stand strongly against any unilateral change of the status quo, in particular by the use of force."

She also called for increased EU resilience and less reliance on China in critical sectors, such as energy, pharmaceutical products and food security.
