Abstract
The sovereign debt crisis in Euro zone countries continues to ferment, and has become an important factor affecting international financial stability and world economic recovery. Accompanied with continuous deepening of the crisis, the Euro zone’s future is questioned, and thus exacerbated by different opinions within EU Member States over the reform directions of the Economic and Monetary Union. The European integration process is in a crossroad. European debt problems are essentially an explosion due to the impact of financial crises under the institutional defects of the European integration. What are the possible impacts of European debt crisis on China’s economy? How do China-EU relations develop under the background of European debt crisis? This talk will give thorough analysis on these questions.
