Italy-EU Rift Boosts China’s Control Over Ports and Supply Chains


Italy has taken a divergent stance against the European Union, creating new geopolitical ripples across the continent. As Rome distances itself from certain EU directives, it opens the door wider to Chinese influence. Beijing is rapidly securing stakes in Italy’s key ports and logistics chains, tightening its grip on European trade routes. This strategic shift raises serious concerns within Brussels over the continent's economic sovereignty. EU officials are now grappling with how to respond to Italy’s pivot and China’s expanding influence. The growing dependency on Chinese infrastructure investments challenges Europe’s long-term strategic autonomy. As China gains economic footholds, the EU faces increased fragmentation in policy coherence. Tensions are mounting as the balance of power within Europe appears to be subtly shifting eastward.
