EP03. China–EU Fracture: The Medical Device Divide


Listen Later

Medical devices have become the latest flashpoint in the increasingly strained relationship between China and the European Union. 

In this episode, host Xing Zheming explores the European Commission's new anti-subsidy investigation into Chinese medical technology exports — a move Beijing says is politically driven and protectionist.

We examine what's behind the EU's decision, how China is responding at both the diplomatic and industry level, and why medical equipment — once dominated by global brands — is now a symbol of China's industrial rise. 

This episode dives into shifting supply chains, rising local champions, and what these tensions mean for future cooperation — or confrontation — in global health and trade.

Tune in for sharp analysis, grounded context, and the signal behind the noise.
