The United Kingdom has officially notified the European Union that it is leaving on 29 March. On the one hand the UK starts the tough negotiations with the EU, and on the other hand it starts to think of its relationship with other major powers as a non-EU member. What are the implications of Brexit for the relationship between the UK and one of the largest economies in the world, China? Could Brexit bring the end of the new Sino-British “special relationship”? The Confucius Institute at Vrije Universiteit Brussel, the European Institute for Asian Studies, and the Brussels Academy for China and European Studies cordially invite you to an academic debate on Brexit and the future Sino-British relation on 15 May in Brussels.
