China-Middle East ties enjoy a ‘renaissance’ as trade spats strengthen ties
==========
China's trade relations with the West are strengthening bonds with the Middle East, with trade volume nearly doubling to US$507.2 billion in 2022 from 2017. Chinese electric vehicle (EV) makers are increasingly investing in other markets, easing trade tensions and supporting employment growth. However, trade tensions between China and the West are expected to persist and could worsen, with concerns about excess production of EVs, batteries, and solar panels. Despite this, China will remain the world's top manufacturing hub and a major exporting country due to its size, efficiency, speed, and innovation.
