EU Eyes Climate, Energy, Trade in New China Talks

The European Union will urge China to do more to cut greenhouse gas emissions and cooperate on energy security next week when it launches negotiations on a broad new strategic partnership with Beijing.

EU External Relations Commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner will begin the talks in China on Wednesday on a pact which will also cover economic ties now worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year and reflect Beijing’s increasing global reach.
