Enhancing ties with the European Union (EU) and individual European countries, and improving China's image in Europe, are part of China's overall foreign policy of building and strengthening relations with great powers. Chinese interests in Europe are mainly economically and politically oriented, direct mutual security interests remain limited. China aims at maintaining good relations with the EU as well as with each individual country. Many European member states give priority to developing their own bilateral relations with China above working on a common EU approach.
