China: Country resumes Business Council with UK after 8‑year pause

teleSUR English

On Thursday, the UK‑China Business Council resumed operations in Beijing after an eight‑year hiatus, coinciding with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s official visit to China. The relaunch brought British and Chinese companies together for direct talks on trade, investment, and industrial cooperation. Current China‑UK goods trade now rivals Britain’s exchanges with some of its closest traditional partners and surpasses trade volumes with several G7 economies. Executives welcomed the revival of the council as a sign of normalized relations and a deeper commitment to bilateral business cooperation, even among those whose companies thrived during the pause.    #teleSUREnglish #China #UnitedKingdom #BusinessCouncil #Trade #Investment #Beijing #KeirStarmer
