China’s self-reliance drive widens trade imbalance with Europe

The New York Times reports that China’s effort to expand domestic manufacturing, often described as a self-reliance drive, is reshaping trade dynamics with Europe.

As a result, the trade imbalance between China and Europe has widened, raising pressure on European industries and policymakers to take action.

The outlet says the intensifying imbalance is a central factor behind the growing push for responses in Europe.
