01 The UAE, an Emerging Hotspot for Chinese Enterprises' Overseas Expansion
The Trump administration waved the tariff stick, and Sino - US trade suffered a cliff - like decline. With the profound changes in the international situation, Chinese enterprises are also looking for new ways out for overseas expansion. The emerging markets in the Middle East are growing at a high speed and have become a new hotspot for Chinese enterprises' overseas expansion, among which the UAE market has achieved particularly outstanding results. As of now, more than 15,000 Chinese enterprises have established corporate entities in the UAE. It is estimated that by 2030, the bilateral trade volume between China and the UAE will reach 200 billion US dollars.
Meanwhile, the UAE is also the first Gulf country to establish a strategic partnership with China - In January 2012, China and the UAE established a strategic partnership. On January 1, 2024, the UAE officially joined the BRICS as a full member. During the state visit in the same year, the two countries signed and exchanged 19 cooperation agreements and memorandums of understanding to promote bilateral cooperation in areas such as the Belt and Road Initiative, investment, trade, and technology.
