The main objective of the study is to analyze the impact of the Chinese economic offensive in four countries of the Eastern Mediterranean (EM4), namely Greece, Egypt, Israel, and Türkiye, and the consequences for the economies of these countries as well as their relations with the European Union and the United States. In this context, we will first focus on the trade and investment relations between China and the EM4. Then, we will examine the reactions of the European Union and the United States to the expansion of China's economic influence in the Eastern Mediterranean region. Finally, we will draw some conclusions from the economic relations between China, the European Union, the United States, and the EM4.
