India and China are arguably two of the most important actors in Asia for the European Union (EU). Starting in the late 1990s, EU-China trade and investment have surged, especially following Beijing’s entry into the World Trade Organization in 2001. Today, China remains the EU’s largest trading partner, with substantial European investments across the mainland. Meanwhile, India has become an increasingly important player, with some in the EU seeing it as a counterpoint to Beijing. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen recently expressed a desire to establish “a new strategic agenda” for India and “upgrade its strategic partnership with the largest country and democracy in the world.” What is the current state of EU-China and EU-India relations? As India’s influence and economic appeal grow, can New Delhi become a viable alternative to China for European business leaders and policymakers? And how is Brussels incorporating India into its strategies to address a potential crisis in Asia or the broader Indo-Pacific? Join us for a webinar discussion with top experts from India, China, and the EU, featuring Philippe Le Corre, Senior Fellow at the Asia Society Policy Institute’s Center for China Analysis (CCA) and Akshay Mathur, Senior Director of the Asia Society Policy Institute New Delhi. Lyle Morris, Senior Fellow on Foreign Policy and National Security at CCA, will moderate the discussion.
