SUBJECT: EU-CHINA SUMMIT REACHES AGREEMENT FOR MORE TALKS 
 
SUMMARY 
------- 
1. (SBU) The EU-China Summit held in Beijing November 27-28, 2007 
covered over thirty topics ranging from the EU arms embargo on China 
and human rights to macroeconomic issues and exchange rates.  In a 
47 paragraph joint statement, borrowing from last year's language, 
the two sides agreed to upgrade macroeconomics and financial 
services level dialogues to the Vice Primier level.  In addition, a 
high-level dialogue will be held in early 2008 which will cover 
intellectual property rights and market access issues.  A European 
Monetary Union delegation raised renminbi appreciation with the 
People's Bank of China but got no commitments.  Mandelson was very 
displeased with the tenor of his exchange with Xinhua's President 
over Xinhua's infringement on the rights of financial information 
providers.  Outgoing Minister of Commerce Bo Xilai dampened 
expectations for any Chinese movement on services beyond existing 
agreements.  In the only apparent deliverable, a five hundred 
million Euro loan to China was signed for projects combating climate 
change.  End summary. 
 
---------------------------------------- 
Upgrading the Dialog 
---------------------------------------- 
 
2. (SBU)  EU Mission Economic Minister Counselor Miguel Ceballos 
told Econoffs that the chief outcome of the 10th EU-China Summit was 
an agreement to upgrade to the Vice Premier level two senior 
dialogues on macroeconomic issues and financial services next year. 
No apparent progress was made on the rising trade deficit, but a 
high-level dialogue is expected to be held in March or April of 2008 
which will include IPR and market access issues. 
 
3. (SBU)  At a Joint Committee meeting in June 2007 with 
then-Chinese Minister of Commerce Bo Xilai, Mandelson pointed out 
that existing economic tools were not successfully addressing the 
expanding trade deficit with China.  Mandelson took the step to make 
public his discontent and a working group meeting soon followed. 
However, the EU and China held significantly divergent points of 
view, according to EU officials, with the EU citing lack of market 
access as the primary driver of the deficit and China offering to 
increase the number of trade fairs. 
 
--------------------------------------------- --- 
No Movement on Renminbi or Market Economy Status 
--------------------------------------------- --- 
 
4. (SBU)  In its first foray out of Europe, the European Monetary 
Union Troika (Eurogroup President Juncker, EU Commissioner Almunia 
and ECB-President Trichet) pushed  renminbi appreciation in meetings 
with the People's Bank of China.  Apart from setting up a working 
group with the People's Bank of China to deal with exchange rate 
related issues, the Troika did not achieve other concrete results, 
the EU Mission officials said. 
 
5. (SBU) While China continued to push for market economy status the 
EU agreed to review China's concerns.  Since the dialogue includes 
both political and economic issues the EU also brought up their 
concerns over human rights.  Though not explicitly linking the two 
the EU delegation sought a "comprehensive" look at the overall 
EU-China relationship, according to EU officials. 
 
--------------------------------------------- ------- 
Xinhua Infringement, National Security, and Foreign Lies 
--------------------------------------------- ------- 
 
6. (SBU)  Mandelson raised the issue of Xinhua's infringement on the 
rights of foreign financial information providers in a two-hour side 
meeting with Tian Congming, President of Xinhua News Agency.  The EU 
has concerns over Xinhua acting as a regulator and an operator. 
Xinhua, in implementing governing rules is also now requiring 
foreign companies to divulge proprietary information about their 
clients (including rates they charge).  Tian, frequently 
interrupting Mandelson brought up references to national security, 
"foreign lies," and China's territorial integrity.  Mandelson, 
clearly frustrated with this response, told Tian that he had been 
dealing with this issue for over one and half years, and "would have 
to draw his own conclusions" from the tenor of Tian's remarks.

Don't Expect Movement on Services Says Outgoing Bo

7. (SBU)  In perhaps his last meeting as Minister of Commerce, Bo 
Xilai told Mandelson  not to expect much movement on services beyond 
existing WTO and multilateral commitments under the Doha Development 
Agenda. 
 
--------------------------------------------- -------- 
Five Hundred Million EU Loan to Combat Climate Change 
--------------------------------------------- -------- 
 
8. (SBU)  In the only apparent hard deliverable of the summit, a 
five hundred million Euro framework loan from the European 
Investment Bank to the People's Bank of China was signed.  The loan 
would support projects combating climate change.
