On July 6, 2024, Deutsche Welle reported an article from the Swiss newspaper 'Neue Zürcher Zeitung' titled 'Beneficiary is Xi Jinping,' discussing Russian President Putin's proposal to establish a new security structure in Eurasia and conditions for negotiations with Ukraine.

The analysis emphasizes that Putin aims to drive the US out of Europe and establish dominance with China, with Xi Jinping being the true beneficiary of Putin's disruptive policies. The article also touches on the EU imposing temporary tariffs on Chinese electric cars to address trade disputes, following a similar trend to the US, which could benefit the EU and lead to negotiations with China. However, it warns against the damaging effects of a trade war on the EU economy and stresses the importance of innovation and free trade in competing with China's industrial capabilities.
