‘Chinese investments in EU infrastructure need to be better understood’

The European Parliament’s Transport and Tourism Committee (TRAN) commissioned a study on Chinese investments in non-maritime infrastructure in Europe and the possible risks they might entail. The biggest risks identified concern Chinese influence on EU countries which, according to the study, needs to be better understood. The main conclusion that can be drawn from it is that “many of the risks can be mitigated with better monitoring and regulation and better coordination between the EU and Member States”.
