The summit is dominated by disputes over trade imbalances, China's support for Russia, and calls for a more balanced and reciprocal economic relationship. Both sides are also expected to discuss climate change and issue a joint statement on emissions, but expectations for major breakthroughs remain low. EU leaders have warned that relations are at an 'inflection point,' pressing China for 'real solutions' to ongoing frictions.
