A resurfacing video has sparked widespread debate online, highlighting the striking difference in how China received European Union (EU) leaders compared to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The footage, which has been making the rounds on social media, shows EU leaders arriving in China to a relatively low-key reception, with minimal ceremonial display. In contrast, a separate clip of Modi’s recent visit to China captures a grand welcome, marked by cultural displays, heightened security presence, and visibly warmer engagement from Chinese officials.
The side-by-side comparison has ignited discussions about China’s diplomatic priorities, with many observers interpreting the disparity as a reflection of Beijing’s shifting geopolitical focus. Analysts note that while EU-China relations have grown tense over trade disputes and human rights concerns, China has simultaneously deepened strategic and economic ties with India, despite occasional border tensions.
The viral footage continues to trend across platforms, fueling debates on China’s foreign policy, India’s rising diplomatic clout, and the EU’s strained ties with Beijing.
