FP: Moving to the Indo-Pacific, is there much discussion in Brussels on the possibility of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan? What would the EU do if a conflict were to break out there?
JB: We keep saying the same thing: We believe that we have to decrease tensions, we have to respect the statute of war, and we have to exclude any possibility of a military solution to the problem. Our fixed position is we don’t recognize the statehood of Taiwan and we will not do it. It’s one single China. It means that we are not going to recognize the statehood of Taiwan; we will have economic and cultural relations with this territory without recognition of statehood. And we call on everybody to understand that there is not a military solution to this problem.
