The Daily Telegraph of the UK published an interview with Rachel Reeves, the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer, on the 18th. In the interview, Reeves said that the UK should establish a deeper partnership with China instead of setting new obstacles, "China is the world's second largest economy, and I think it is very stupid not to engage with it. This is the attitude of this government."

Reeves also expressed her support for the Chinese fast fashion company Shein to list on the London Stock Exchange, and mentioned Chinese electric vehicles in the interview. She said, "Many electric taxis in London are produced in the UK and owned by a Chinese company. I think it is good for London to have these electric taxis. They are also popular among taxi drivers."

"I think we may have all taken (electric) taxis in London. They are produced in the UK and owned by a Chinese company. I think it is good for London to have these electric taxis. They are also popular among taxi drivers," she said.

Reeves said that she had traveled to China earlier this year to participate in the Sino-British Economic and Financial Dialogue to enhance the operational capabilities of British financial service enterprises in China. "These arrangements obviously serve the national interest of the UK, and I will use this attitude to conduct trade negotiations or financial dialogues with any country in the world," she said.

The Daily Telegraph wrote that these remarks further indicate that the Labour Party government is determined to deepen trade and financial ties with China, which is precisely the agenda that UK Prime Minister Starmer has been pushing for months.

Reeves is scheduled to attend a series of meetings, including the G20 Finance Ministers' Meeting next week in the US, and will meet with US Treasury Secretary Scott Beusser to discuss the UK-US trade agreement.
