Arms sales to China

This procedure concerns the potential lifting of the European Union's embargo on arms sales to China. The embargo was imposed in 1989 following the Tiananmen Square crackdown. Its removal would signify a major shift in EU foreign policy towards China.

Lifting the embargo could impact international relations, particularly with the United States, and raise concerns about human rights and regional stability. It would affect the EU's arms industry and its geopolitical standing.
