STOCKHOLM, Sweden: EU foreign ministers agreed on Friday on the need to 'recalibrate' Europe's position on China, reducing dependencies and coaxing Beijing to take a tougher stance on Russia's war in Ukraine, the bloc's foreign policy chief said.

Brussels has urged the European Union's 27 nations to get on the same page on how they deal with China, as a more assertive Beijing asserts its influence on the world stage. At a meeting hosted by Sweden, European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell presented the bloc's foreign ministers with a paper outlining the need to 'define' and 're-calibrate our position towards China.

' On Friday, Baerbock stressed that the proposal was 'not about economic sanctions' but about preventing 'war materials being delivered to Russia by other states.' On a trip to China last month, French President Emmanuel Macron opened up EU fissures by saying Europe should not automatically follow US policy on Taiwan and should avoid 'crises that aren't ours.
