Xi Jinping in Serbia: Why China is Deepening Ties with Eastern Europe | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Chinese President Xi Jinping received a warm welcome in Serbia today (April 8, 2024). In the second leg of his European trip that has come after a break of five years, President Xi was welcomed by the Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, who termed him a "friend". Xi's visit to Serbia coincides with the 25th anniversary of NATO's bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade. While remembering the incident, Xi said that "we must never forget this". Serbia and China have signed 29 deals today, and decided to implement a free trade pact - which could complicate Europe's efforts to "de-risk" from Chinese supply chains. Belgrade is a strong ally for Beijing, with the country even supporting China's claims on Taiwan. As Xi Jinping nears the end of his European tour, Palki Sharma explains how the Chinese president is exploiting the cracks within the European Union.
