With Europe running a massive daily trade surplus with China, Sjoerdsma warned of growing risks to jobs and unity among member states if the imbalance isn’t addressed. He noted China’s apparent willingness to avoid a tariff war and hailed progress on resolving the Nexperia dispute. But the visit also tackled a darker issue: forced labor in Xinjiang. Sjoerdsma emphasized upcoming EU laws that will force Chinese firms to comply or face consequences, echoing past Dutch parliamentary motions that accused China of genocide against Uyghurs.
