Why EU's ties with China are likely to remain tense
Relations between the EU and China last reached a mini-high during Donald Trump's disruptive first presidency, when Beijing and Brussels agreed a Comprehensive Agreement on Investment. However, bilateral ties have not warmed during Trump's second term in the White House, despite the US president threatening to instigate several new trade wars with his tariff policies. Certainly, the mood between the EU and China is generally constructive and both sides are keen to showcase some achievements in relations during this landmark year, which marks the 50th anniversary of bilateral ties. This includes during their upcoming annual summit on July 24, when European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Council President Antonio Costa will hold talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Qiang. Both sides stress that they have no insuperable conflicts of interest, and instead share common economic and political interests that are deepening. Underneath this high diplomacy, however, growing challenges are chilling relations, including the issue of the war in Ukraine. Take the example of rare earths. This is a topic on which von der Leyen and Costa will this week urge China to end restrictions that require EU-based exporters to secure licenses from Beijing, which controls more than 90 percent of the global processing capacity for these key metals. During the G7 Summit in June, von der Leyen accused China of 'coercion' and 'blackmail' over the measures, asserting that 'no single country should control 80-90 percent of the market for essential raw materials and downstream products like magnets.' On the economic front, China's trade surplus with the EU hit a record high in May, and now stands at about €400 billion ($465 billion). One of the steps the EU has taken in response is to levy tariffs of up to 35 percent on Chinese electric vehicles, citing unfair subsidies. Beijing retaliated with inquiries into the European dairy and brandy sectors. In the face of these proliferating challenges, von der Leyen, Costa, and other top EU officials are trying to build a broader, bloc-wide stance on China. This reflects the fact that Brussels has struggled at times to find common purpose across all 27 EU member states on the issue, especially those such as Hungary that are more sympathetic to Beijing. Worse still, leading EU officials have become increasingly concerned in recent years about whether the nature of China's external interventions in Europe represent a strategy of divide-and-rule in an attempt to undermine the continent's collective interests. The former EU foreign affairs chief, Joseph Borrell, even asserted that Beijing was a 'systemic rival that seeks to promote an alternative model of governance' to that of Europe. Von der Leyen said more recently that 'China has an entirely different system' with 'unique instruments at its disposal to play outside the rules.' Brussels has sought to unite the bloc around a stronger policy toward China. Andrew Hammond The backstory to this is that Europe is becoming an increasingly important foreign policy focal point for Beijing, economically and politically. The rising superpower had generally enjoyed growing influence across much of the region, at least until the COVID-19 pandemic. In the past five years, however, since the pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine, relations have become chillier. This has affected issues such as climate cooperation, with doubts reported about whether Beijing and Brussels will sign a joint climate action pledge during their upcoming summit, despite the precedent of previous important collaboration in this area. Brussels has therefore sought to unite the bloc around a stronger policy toward China, with von der Leyen taking the lead on the issue, even though the role of European Commission president does not include any formal foreign policy mandate. While the EU still deeply values its relationship with China, the direction of travel for policy on Beijing appears to be moving in a more hawkish direction. Even on issues in which breakthroughs have been made with China over the past five years, such as the Comprehensive Agreement on Investment in 2020, ratification of this key economic deal has stalled for years in the European Parliament as a result of deteriorating relations. A central challenge for von der Leyen, however, remains the splits within the 27-member bloc regarding views on Beijing. It is too simplistic to characterize this as an East-West dichotomy within the region, not least because Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is perhaps China's biggest cheerleader in the EU. There are nonetheless differences in outlook, primarily between hawkish Eastern European nations such as the Czech Republic, Poland, and Lithuania, versus Western counterparts such as France and Spain that do much more bilateral business with China. The positions of those Western European nations can be particularly problematic for Brussels, given that both Paris and Madrid want extensive economic engagement with China to continue. The longstanding, deep business ties between Paris and Beijing are widely documented, so it is no surprise that President Emmanuel Macron is sometimes more equivocal than von der Leyen on the issue of China. During a joint visit with her to Beijing in 2023, the French president raised eyebrows in Europe by taking a large business delegation with him. He also utilized the language of economic reciprocity, rather than the European Commission president's preferred choice of 'derisking,' and did not appear to put significant pressure on China regarding its support for Russia in Ukraine. This challenging context underlines why the upcoming summit might underdeliver on even the low expectations that surround it. Overall EU relations with China are likely to remain chilly for the foreseeable future, and could yet go into a deep freeze during von der Leyen's second term as European Commission president. • Andrew Hammond is an associate at LSE IDEAS at the London School of Economics.

Trump gives Putin strict ultimatum to make a deal on Ukraine or face consequences
President Donald Trump put Russian President Vladimir Putin on a 50-day clock. To drive Putin to a deal on Ukraine, Trump has a new plan: massive air defenses backed up by the Trump doctrine, where rade wins wars. But what's truly at stake is Trump's unique vision for U.S. power and prosperity. In the Oval Office with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on Monday, July 14, Trump announced more U.S. aid to Ukraine and a 100% tariff to hit Russia's oil customers like China by early September. "I use trade for a lot of things ... it's good for settling wars," Trump said. Trump cited the example of how he employed trade threats to simmer down India and Pakistan in May. However, as he said Monday, "The only one we haven't been able to get to yet is Russia." So, Trump has turned up the heat. The 100% tariffs would hit the $240 billion Russia-China trade and reverberate to India, Brazil and others. This tariff appears to be distinct from the potential 500% secondary sanctions in the Senate bill co-sponsored by Republican South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham and Connecticut Democrat Sen. Richard Blumenthal, which Trump views as a back-up plan. The second component of Trump's new strategy is to deprive Putin of gains from the mass air barrages of drones and missiles attacking Ukraine. Significantly, Trump has now put his personal backing behind aid to Ukraine in the form of a surge of air defenses. Trump and Rutte discussed no less than 17 Patriot air defense batteries. That's astonishing, considering that Ukraine has six batteries in operation now, including three from the U.S. and others sent from Germany, Poland and Romania. Patriot is the gold standard for air defense. It's a full commitment by Trump and NATO to stopping Putin's brutal war. Trump is also brandishing Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles like a stiletto in a street fight. TLAMs could swiftly decimate Russia's air force. Trump says he won't give Ukraine TLAMs or other long-range missiles that could hit targets in Russia just now, but then, we all remember the head-fake prior to the B-2 strike on Iran, don't we? Russia has taken 100,000 casualties since January for paltry ground gains. With Trump empowering NATO, Putin is targeting Ukraine's power grid and infrastructure alongside indiscriminate terror attacks. The salvos consist mainly of Iranian Shahed drones, some of which are now manufactured in Russia, along with decoys. Each barrage includes a handful of weapons that are hard to intercept: Iskander ballistic missiles, KH-101 cruise missiles and even old Soviet air defense missiles converted for ground attack. The bad news is that Russia has literally thousands of older missile types. Ukraine's air defenders are top notch, due to considerable assistance from the U.S, NATO partners and others. Sophisticated monitoring and tracking have enabled Ukraine to shoot down most of Putin's air weapons, but this spring's saturation attacks have been challenging. Air defense is a group effort. The joint U.S.-Norwegian NASAMS use the converted AIM-120 fighter plane air-to-air missile and boast a 94% success rate. Another favorite is the "Frankenstein SAM" which combines old Soviet-style Buk launchers rewired by clever Americans to fire U.S. missiles like the Sea Sparrow. Australia has deployed its sophisticated E-7 Wedgetail radar surveillance plane to monitor drone and missile trajectories for intercept. If worse comes to worst, a few NATO partner F-35s could scour the skies. Done right, the air defenses and TLAM threats will diminish the damage to Ukraine and secure Europe against Russia's ongoing weapons build-up, too. There is nothing the NATO allies want more than to protect their strategic ports, railways and capitals from any threat of Russian drones and missiles. Air defense also ties back to Trump's primary goal, which is a ceasefire to stop the killing and a peace deal that will leave Ukraine with a viable economy. He's already shifted more of the financial burden to NATO and is a good sign that the European Union on Wednesday proposed $116 billion for Ukraine's economic reconstruction. Make no mistake. This is very high stakes move by President Trump. Success with the squeeze of secondary sanctions will take agile behind-the-scenes negotiation and a bit of luck. If his stratagem works, Trump will have proved the duo of tariffs and selective military power can defeat the Russia-China cabal. America will be in a strong position to reconfigure our military posture and economic strategy to face down China's global menace.

Brunello Cucinelli Expects Modest Profit Growth in 2025, Sees Sales Up 10 Percent in 2026 After Positive H1
MILAN — Trade wars, geopolitical tensions and the volatility of financial markets on a global scale are tightening purse strings across the globe, but Brunello Cucinelli continues to achieve healthy growth. According to preliminary figures, the Solomeo, Italy-based company's sales momentum that kicked off 2025 continued into the second quarter. Sales grew 10.2 percent to 684 million euros in the first half of the year. The positive performance prompted the company to forecast 10 percent growth for both 2025 and 2026 full-year sales and said it would likely report 'slightly improved' growth in profit for the full year. That would compare to a 19.5 percent rise in profit in 2024 to 128.5 million euros. More from WWD Trump Tariffs Hit America's Furniture Heartland as Howard Miller Company Announces Closure Claire's Could Sell Itself Via Bankruptcy Amid Tariff, Debt Struggles The Best Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Fashion Deals Our Shopping Editors Are Buying Now 'As for profitability, by the end of the year, we will slightly improve our profitability. And we are very happy about that,' said Brunello Cucinelli told analysts during the first-half conference call. 'The fact is that we have an Italian company pay taxes in Italy… this is our struggle, you know, with regard to improving the profits. We will never bring or transfer our company to the Netherlands, to Luxembourg,' Cucinelli added. Cucinelli added that his motivation for staying in Italy is in large part to support the wider supply chain. 'We are serious Italian entrepreneurs who believe in made-in-Italian manufacturing with high-end craftsmanship, high-end exclusivity, high-end quality. We want to work on a local level in Italy.' Geographically, the firm posted buoyant sales in all key markets. Revenues generated in Asia outpaced, rising 12.5 percent in the first half to 195.7 million euros. 'In Asia, the brand is considered to be extremely fashionable. We've been concentrating on the relevance of the brand more than anything else. Our brand is young and even younger in Asian countries. We need to work on the depth of the brand more than anything else,' said chief executive officer Luca Lisandroni, commenting on the positive performance throughout the continent, particularly in China. Sales in Europe grew 10 percent to 243.1 million euros while the Americas, its biggest market by sales, grew 8.7 percent to 245.2 million euros. 'The [performance in Americas] shows that negative psychological effects due to the tariffs haven't had any negative consequences up to now,' Lisandroni added. U.S. President Trump's tariff policy imposed on Italian goods will drive prices of Brunello Cucinelli's products higher by 4 percent, but only in America, the company said. Both retail and wholesale grew almost equally in the period. Retail, which represents 63.7 percent of the total, rose 10.3 percent to 435.8 million euros, while wholesale rose 10.1 percent to 248.2 million euros. Cucinelli said that wholesale and multibrand stores are still 'great value' for the company and approach new customers looking to complete their total look and unique style. 'The multibrand channel closes another particularly brilliant semester, reinforcing the strategic role we have always recognized it for. We have significantly gained market share in purchases from the world's most important multibrand clients…,' the company said, citing excellent wholesale order intake of its men's spring 2026 collection presented in June. Its women's spring 2026 collection will be available in showrooms starting in August and will be presented to the press during Milan Fashion Week in September. The company has invested significantly in doubling its production capacity by restoring an existing industrial site in Solomeo. The firm said the works would be completed in November, eight months earlier than previously expected. The new plant will 'guarantee production until 2035.' The company also plans to open new manufacturing sites in Italy, in Penne and in Gubbio, supporting the plans to double turnover, as expected by 2030. The fashion industry across the board is grappling with rising tariffs, geopolitical tensions and the volatility of financial markets, which is negatively impacting luxury spending. As a result, the personal luxury goods segment is seeing the first slowdown in 15 years, excluding the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the spring 2025 Luxury Goods Worldwide Market study presented by Bain and Altagamma in Milan in June. According to the report, the luxury industry registered a 1 percent decrease in 2024 turnover to 364 billion euros, compared with 369 billion euros in 2023.
