Brussels: On Wednesday, European Union diplomats had approved the revival of embargoes on four Chinese officials and one Chinese entity as part of an extension of a human rights blacklist, two diplomats stated.
The decision, will be implemented early next month, puts in danger a Chinese-EU investment treaty signed in late December 2020. Last week, China’s envoy to the bloc said that there could be no ratification of the deal until the EU lifted its sanctions, which are internal interference according to Beijing.
