Relations between Britain and China are the worst in decades after London restricted Chinese investment over national security concerns and expressed concern at Beijing's increasing military and economic assertiveness.
LONDON, United Kingdom – British foreign minister James Cleverly will urge China to be more open about the reasons behind what he called the biggest military build-up in peacetime history and said secrecy around its plans could lead to a “tragic miscalculation”.
In a warning over the future of Taiwan, Cleverly will say Britain is open about seeking to deepen cooperation with allies in the Indo-Pacific and called for China to be clear about its military intentions. Cleverly’s speech is the clearest attempt to explain Britain’s approach to China under Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who said at the end of last year that the so-called “golden era” of relations under former prime minister David Cameron was over.No ‘new cold war’
The foreign minister’s annual speech to Mansion House is normally used to set out views on a range of foreign policy issues. But unusually Cleverly’s speech will focus solely on China, in what the foreign ministry said was recognition of its “huge significance” to global affairs.
