Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič is kicking off his visit to China today — and the stakes are high.
On today’s show, Zoya Sheftalovich and Sarah Wheaton discuss the most important topic on the agenda: Europe’s trade deficit with China. France and Germany are finally on the same page and want Brussels to get tougher on unfair trade. So can we expect results from the meeting?
Next, EU development ministers are meeting in Dublin to discuss the future of Europe’s development policy. But the timing is unfortunate, as governments prepare another round of cuts to the next long-term budget.
Finally, a mysterious death at a Russian anti-plague lab has an unexpected connection to Zoya’s own family.
