-- The UK is China's third largest trading partner in the EU, while China is the UK's second largest non-EU trading partner.

-- According to Chinese statistics, from January to September 2010 trade between the two countries grew to $35.75 billion, up almost 30 percent year-on-year and higher than before the financial crisis.

-- Britain ranks alongside Germany as the largest EU investor in China, and China has become the sixth largest investor in Britain. China's investment in Britain has grown from 59 projects in 2008-09 to over 74 projects in 2009-10, up 25 percent.

Recent Major visits

-- William Hague made his first official visit to China as foreign secretary in July.

China and Britain have maintained strong growth of economic and business ties and closer cooperation in education and culture. Britain is China's third largest trading partner in the European Union (EU) and the largest EU investor in China. Meanwhile, China has become the sixth largest investor in Britain in terms of the number of investment projects. >>>

A boost to Sino-UK relations

China's leadership will be aware that Britain, like much of Europe, is going through a period of protracted economic strife. This is already having important strategic implications. The coalition government has outlined a controversial package of public spending cuts, which includes an 8 percent reduction in defense spending and a 24 percent cut to the Foreign Office's budget over the coming four years. >>>

Pragmatic delegation

The fact that Cameron is leading the biggest delegation ever by a British prime minister to China, one which includes political and business heavyweights, speaks volumes about the importance the new British government, a Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition, has attached to its relations with China. >>> 

Where will China-Britain relations go?

As Tory leader David Cameron entered 10 Downing Street on May 11, Britain's first coalition government under parliament since 1974 was finally formed.

We had some political skirmishes between China and UK during Gordon Brown's term. In addition to disagreements over human rights and Darfur, the two sides traded barbs over emission reduction and tariff barriers.

How will the new government define China-Britain relations? Will it make a fresh start or continue the path of Brown's policy??>>>

Good start to Sino-UK ties 

During his four-day visit to Beijing this week, the United Kingdom's Foreign Secretary David Miliband on several occasions repeated a popular platitude of recent years: The world needs China, and China needs the world.

Putting aside the talks about China's growing economic interdependence with the rest of the world, Miliband's statement could be seen as a declaration that London now sees Beijing as a partner and is willing to expand cooperation.

If this is true, it is good news for bilateral ties and its long-term growth. At the moment, we hope London will make concrete efforts to mend the marred relationship with Beijing. >>>
