According to the First Financial News, after the opening of the A-share market recently, the share prices of medical equipment giants were under pressure. The share price of Lianying Medical (688271.SH) fell by nearly 6%, Mindray Medical (300760.SZ) fell by nearly 2%, and Yuyue Medical (002223.SZ) fell by nearly 3%. Recently, it was reported that the EU plans to take restrictive measures against Chinese-funded enterprises in accordance with the International Procurement Tools. Chinese companies may be restricted from participating in EU medical device public bidding projects worth more than 5 million euros in the next five years.
You should know that the medical devices in EU countries have a wide market in our country, but our country has a very small market share in Europe. So, such a punishment measure in the EU has little impact on us, but what about the EU? It has a great impact on them, which is the same as our country stops purchasing Boeing aircraft. Since most of their medical devices are exported to our country, if our country implements counterattack measures against the EU, then EU companies that produce medical devices will be hit hard.

The EU does not allow Chinese companies to participate in bidding. The 27 countries unified the front against China. What are they doing? To be honest, there is still a gap between China's medical technology and the world's first-class level, and the EU is now restricting Chinese companies in the field of medical devices. It is obvious that the EU is trying to suppress the development of China's medical level. After some fluctuations in China-EU relations, the United States' attitude towards China has also changed. First of all, US President Trump has repented and continued to impose greater restrictions on Chinese chips and steel products. Secondly, White House spokesman Levitt said that Trump may conduct telephone communication with China in the near future.
According to Xinhua News Agency, recently, the President of the State had a regular phone call with US President Trump at the invitation. The President pointed out that it is particularly important to correct the course of the large ship of Sino-US relations, which requires us to rudder and set the direction, especially to eliminate all kinds of interference and even damage. According to the US proposal, the leaders of the two countries' economic and trade leaders held talks in Geneva, taking an important step to resolve economic and trade issues through dialogue and consultation. They are widely welcomed by all walks of life in the two countries and the international community, and it also proves that dialogue and cooperation are the only correct choice. Trump expressed great respect for the President and the U.S.-China relations are very important. The US side is happy to see China's economy maintain strong growth.

It is reported that the total US debt has exceeded US$36 trillion in early 2025. The soaring US Treasury yields means that the international market is intensifying concerns about the financial situation of the United States. JPMorgan CEO Dimon publicly warned that the inflation of US debt will inevitably trigger a fiscal crisis in the future. If the United States cannot effectively solve the debt problem, the global financial market will fall into further panic. Against this background, Trump urgently needs to find a way to stabilize the economy. The dialogue with China has undoubtedly become the key to the United States' return to the international stage. If China can support the debt issue, the US economic pressure may be temporarily alleviated.
After the launch of this round of trade war, the Trump administration has actually entered a state of being betrayal of relatives. Let’s not talk about the traditional forces of the American ruling class. Retail giants such as Walmart are one of the biggest victims of tariff confrontation. Even a major driving force behind Trump's victory in this round of campaign, the West Coast capital elites represented by Musk, were very angry about Trump's actions and stood on the back of Trump. Politically, everyone is betrayal and in a deep crisis in the economy, what options does Trump have? Of course, only by putting away the threat of "restarting the trade war", giving up the fantasy of defeating China, and starting to return to the track of cooperation, and talking about the importance of Sino-US cooperation.

Now, Trump has regretted it and hopes to hold talks with China on the "tariff issue". However, China's response is loud and "no news can be provided", which shows that the US may just be self-indulgent, and whether it is really negotiated is unknown! Trump's regret caught the EU off guard. As for whether the EU "changes its face" again and improves its relations with China, let's wait and see!
