後冷戰時期中共與西歐國家的軍事合作關係日漸緊密，尤其是荷蘭、法國與台灣之軍售交易成功後，中共除了依賴過去蘇聯管道外，亦積極從西歐國家如英、法、德、義、荷諸國軍火工業集團採購高性能國防軍需，西歐國家基於市場壓力，亦逐步打開對中共軍售之門，雙方過去十年之交流合作，在質、量上都有明顯提昇、值得觀察。

　　　　　In the Post-Cold War Era, the military cooperation between PRC and West European countries is increasing intensively. After successful transactions of arm sales between Taiwan and Dutch as well as France, PRC not only relies on the former channels from the Soviet Union, but also enthusiastically purchases high-quality military equipment from the arms industry blocs of the West European countries, such as the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Netherland. Under market pressure, West Euroean countries gradually opened the gateway of arm sales to China. The quality and quantity of the two-way cooperations had evidently increased over the past ten years which deserve our further observation.
