EU's von der Leyen says discussed root causes of trade imbalance with China

EU leaders are speaking in Beijing after the first day of the EU-China summit

Agreed with Xi that trade should be balanced between China and EU (von der Leyen)
Agreed to cooperate on AI at global level (von der Leyen)
Expects China to take more concrete actions to increase market access for foreign firms (Michel)
Need to make trade and economic relationship more reciprocal, balanced (Michel)

These are all very on-the-surface stuff and that's not entirely surprising. As much as the EU wants to remove its dependency on China, it's not something that can be done overnight and this visit is a symbolic one to try and maintain some form of economic stability.
