Delegates from Sweden include Minister for Foreign Affairs Carl Bildt. The EU will
also be represented by President of the European Commission José Manuel Barroso
and EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy Javier
Solana.
The summit will take place a week before the UN Climate Change Conference in
Copenhagen and therefore the climate will be one of the main issues on the agenda
in Nanjing. Another priority issue is how the relationship between the EU and China
should move forward in the light of the Treaty of Lisbon. The third issue on the
agenda is the global economic situation, where the conclusions from this autumn's
G20 meeting in Pittsburgh will be discussed. The EU-China Business Summit will be
held alongside the summit. This year the Business Summit will focus on climate
change, the environment and related business opportunities.
There will also be a meeting between the EU’s and Chinas respective ministers for
foreign affairs, where the EU delegation will be led by Carl Bildt. The meeting agenda
includes a number of international and regional issues.
The following day Fredrik Reinfeldt and José Manuel Barroso will continue with a
programme in Beijing.
