"Strengthening cooperation with China is possibly the only option; cooperation is of vital importance. The global landscape is dominated by three major players: the U.S.， China， and Europe. If the U.S. does not support multilateralism， we must seek alternatives，" Jürgen Klute， the former member of the European Parliament， told in an exclusive interview with Southern Finance Corporation.

The U.S. President Donald Trump signed a proclamation announcing a 25% tariff on imported cars in March， and will be effective on April 2. Trump stated that the auto tariffs would be permanent and that no tariffs would be imposed on vehicles manufactured in the U.S. Trump's announcement quickly drew condemnation from U.S. trade partners， including the EU， Canada， and Japan.

Facing the tense global environment， Klute emphasized the need for more dialogue and cooperation between China and Europe， especially at the political level. "Given the confusion caused by Trump's unstable policies ， it is essential to establish a clear and stable framework for political dialogue，" he said.

SFC Talk: What are your key takeaways from 2025 Zhongguancun Forum?

Jürgen Klute: My takeaway from this forum is that China is really advancing in technology， in robots and in artificial intelligence. That is really amazing. What I saw was all the robots and all the presentations.

SFC Talk: How can China and Europe enhance their strategic partnership to address global challenges like climate change amid rising geopolitical tensions?

Jürgen Klute: I think the most important point is to have a stronger， closer exchange on an academic level and an industrial level. On the academic level， I saw that you have a lot of universities， a lot of academics. They are working on these issues. And on the other hand， you are doing a lot of things on the economic level to bring all this in academic investigations into practice. And in Europe， from my point of view， we are losing a little bit of the speed of economic and academic development. Therefore I think the main part is to cooperate and to bring people together.

SFC Talk: Now， all eyes are on President Donald Trump's reciprocal tariffs， and he even threatened to withdraw from the WTO. In this context， in what ways can China and Europe collaborate to promote multilateralism and uphold international trade norms in the face of increasing protectionism?

Jürgen Klute: Currently， Europe is a little bit pending between China and the USA. I think it is necessary to find a clear direction from the European side and to come in on both levels， or more than two levels in a discussion in an exchange with China， as we need it on a political level， of course. But the political level is not enough. If you really want to become more independent from this tariff policy of Trump， then you have to cooperate on a practical level as well. And that's what I'm doing and what we are doing with our NGO. I'm a representative of a Belgium-based NGO， which is called Europe Silk Road Connect. And that's our idea to bring people together. That means smaller and middle-sized companies. The big company does it on its own， of course.

And on the other hand， we are trying to bring academics in contact and exchange. When we came here to Beijing， to this conference， we brought representatives from the academic level and from companies to here to start this cooperation in very practical terms.

SFC Talk: What strategies can China and Europe employ to balance competition and cooperation in technological innovation and digital economies?

Jürgen Klute: At least the typical European way is to implement a financial program from the EU level and then offer it to organizations， companies and universities to apply for money from these funds， as a support for a concrete corporation. That exists with different regions of the world. And that should be organized for China as well， stronger than it was in the past. Students can get stipends to go to China to spend one to three semesters here. That's one point.

On the other hand， you can support to exchange collaborators and employees to let it better known. And you can foster the cooperation between universities. That are the measures Europe use normally， but it is up to the politicians negotiating with the Chinese government to implement a political framework to make this possible.

SFC Talk: How can China and Europe work together to ensure energy security and advance the transition to sustainable energy sources?

Jürgen Klute: China is very ahead in producing batteries. Batteries are crucial for electric mobility and there is already a lot ongoing. The other point is how to use artificial intelligence to reduce energy consumption. We have two possibilities to fight climate warming. You can change energy production from fossil energy to solar energy. That's one point. And the other point is to reduce the consumption of energy. And I think artificial intelligence opens a lot of possibilities to reduce energy consumption.

SFC Talk: What role does cultural exchange play in strengthening China-Europe relations? And how can it be leveraged to mitigate geopolitical frictions?

Jürgen Klute: Europe and China have different cultures and very different languages. I think we have to start on different levels. On one hand， I think it would be good to learn， or， at school， to offer more lessons about China's history， culture and China's language. On the other hand， I saw that in the hotel here， everything is in China's language and it could be done more in English as well. That makes it a little bit easier for Europeans when they go to China. I think that's one of the biggest obstacles for small and medium-sized companies in Europe that they don't know the culture.

It's very easy. If you meet people， how do you say hello and how you can avoid misunderstandings by wrong behavior. And on the other hand， you have to know the different laws in China and in Europe. Therefore， it's important to offer people， especially smaller and medium-sized companies to learn about this as a precondition of developing cooperation. And it's a little (difficult) but our NGO started to offer small and medium-size companies in Europe and China as well. And we want to accompany companies if they want to start a cooperation.

SFC Talk: How often do you come to China， and what impressed you most this time during your visit to China?

Jürgen Klute: This is my first time. I knew about China from newspapers and booksporn 丝袜， of course. But it's quite different from what I read in the past. It is more modern than I expected， and it was very easy to enter at the border. I expected stronger border control.
