The European People's Party (EPP), known for its center-right stance, remains the largest party following the conclusion of the European Parliament elections on June 11, 2024. The emergence of the far-right has created ripples in the political landscapes of Germany and France, potentially impacting the EU's restrictive measures on Chinese goods. With the increase in far-right seats, issues related to security, climate change, and industrial competition between China and the US may face obstacles in the new legislation. Nationalism parties skeptical of the EU could influence the cooperation needed within the EU to overcome differences. Recent elections have shown various EU parties shifting positions towards or against China, highlighting the growing divide on how to address China's expanding influence.
