Why is Germany maintaining economic ties with China? | Counting the Cost

- Germany is China's biggest European trade partner.
But, Berlin also sees Beijing as a competitor and a rival.
And - in its first-ever "strategy on China" launched last year - pledged to reduce German dependence on the Chinese market.
But, during his visit last week to China, the German Chancellor signalled his intentions to maintain business ties.
That may have angered some of Olaf Scholz's closest allies.
The European Union has launched several investigations into exports of Chinese green technology to protect European industry from competition.
Are Nigeria's reforms working?

After 40 years of profiting from China, how on earth can Germany accuse of subsidy. Unfathomable. Unbelievable......
German boneka amerika
Merkel retired
Because China has to grow up and stop huge subsidies or it will damage the world trade.
Fun fact: When China is making socks, Tshirts and shoes the west never complained Chinese goods are so cheap.
In fact, China is the biggest economic partner of most of the countries in the world.
US telling everyone to back off, but US trade with China twice bigger than entire EU combined.
When you can't compete, you blame it to "unfair competition" but when you were reaping all their wealth when they were weak, you just keep quiet. What a Hypocrite!!!
China is not Germany's trade competitor, they are trading partners. The US on the other hand is both Germany and EU's trade competitor, where both the US and EU produce high tech products and when the US force EU not to sell China their goods, where putting the EU business in finical difficulties. Every once in a while, the US will pull out their section 301 BS on EU business similar to what the US is doing to China right now.
More countries now can see what US is like. The world order is changing. Thank goodness.
" Why is Germany maintaining economic ties with China? " Why do you have a job ? Because you have to eat and pay the bills.
A middle finger to Americans decoupling.
Who doesn't want to buy a product that is of fine quality at an affordable price?
not the west
EU citizens infected with ideology...😮
@@jetli740 LOL
Americans, Yellen, yelling up and down in Beijing
Yellen warns china overcapacity will make china more prosperous country
This is a dumb question. China is Germany's leading trade partner in imports and exports.
Don't underestimate just how stupid German politicans are. They cut off Russian gas for god sake
Germany no longer has access to cheap Russian energy. Ooperation was interruoted by Von de Leyen and Baerboch.
Is Al Jazeera a captured entity?
So Al Jazeera is a capture entity?
They have hara-kiri themselves.
@@samliew6610 they are from different party. Baerbock want to become Germany PM but Mercle didn't choose her
How is such stupid question! China literally is the biggest trading partners with majority of countries in the world
Al Jazeera does such a great job on the Israeli Palestinian issue but when it comes to anything related to Russia and China they do nothing but spew American propaganda and US State department talking points.
I guess they have to since their country is one of those Gulf Countries with American military bases in it.
why? to avoid Germany to go from recession into depression
The real question is Why NOT?
What a stupid question. Because Germany is being destroyed economically by you know who.
Actually not true and if you ask me it was Russia who destroyed the pipeline
@@user-ct7mw9yu6n a US bot
@@user-ct7mw9yu6nyou sound stupid and ignorant ,i mean who don't know that pipeline was bombed by USA?
US: no, hopefully not me
Today in Germany all shops are Chinese... 😅 and all restaurants Turkish kebabs 😂
I'll rather Chinese food too in Germany.
why not, the life goes on
Dont you think Chinese companies are also discriminated in EU? Or is discrimination called “national security” in EU
China is not overcapacity, but insufficient production capacity. There are still too many people around the world struggling for survival, and besides Europe and America, people from other countries are also human
To make lots of money, why else?.....the intelligence of this news agency, I really need to question.
This title lol. What about why don’t your country cut the economic relationship with China
Easy, if China is not your cup of tea. Leave. Stop whInIng, its so childish
Germany's economy would fail. How much more decoupling can it do after reducing trade with one of its largest export markets Russia. Now it's being pressured to do the same with one of the largest economies in the world. Forcing it to trade with just a few nations is bad economics.
So Nigeria bowed to Shell and their currency is no longer in crisis
Economic investigator Frank G Melbourne Australia is following this very informative content cheers Frank 😊
Avoid China and try selling your cars to the us
Then, Why should Germany maintain its economic tie with the United States?
global warm VS renewable energy, which one should we choose?
Both can work. Global warming us a scam
neither, we choose national security
Tough question
International trades are mutual beneficial economic acts among the engaging parties. Do businesses need to consider the costs of cutting off trading relationships with their trading partners, and to what ends?
Regarding the trades issues between Germany and the EU, we are wondering what kind of impacts would have on the EU and especially Germany. I think the answer is already there in the Gas market.
The US did all it could to turn Europe away from Russian gas supply which is cheaper and more readily available. With the EU and the US joined at the hip, the former did just that, by allowing the two pipelines blown up. Now Germany is almost fully dependent on the LPG from the US, and its industries are taking a hit as gas prices rose. So who is benefiting from this? The US.
With that example, it is not hard to see that if the EU is to again follow the US to constrict Chinese goods, the one that is going to win is the US, and not Europe.
Actually the prices of gas and oil are now lower then before the war as Norway is now the biggest importaner plus you can't give money to someone who is destroying the largest country in Europe ( Ukraine 🇺🇦)
Body is honest while mind is mixed
Ask a patient in intensive care: "Why are you still on that ventilator?"
why NOT?
Is there any other better choice for Germany?
Russia cheap energy is gone for ever,do you expect Germany to leave China market for USA and France?
the question should be why not?
China✌
Because principles doesn't feed
What principles the west is talking about while they are directly support the genocide in Gaza and suppressing any voice supports Palestinian
Since when does the west have principles? Don't make me laugh. 😂😂😂
Northern barbarian chief bows down to son of heaven. 😅
They need to prepare for Trump.
Because it hasn't been bullied away from China yet. Can't imagine it being too far away.
Yes, like what happened in Japan and Korea market…
Their automakers made a fortune in the Chinese market for decades. They should be thankful.
The problem is that the price or money should not be the only measure to values. There so much more should be included but unfortunately not in the price. Sadly people buying staffs more on the price factor, not caring if any illegal activities are conducted during the production(for example, human right violations, pollution, intellectual property theft, etc. However, these price factors is playing different roles among different cultures or civilizations. By the end the price will somehow be payed dearly for various things. Like the saying ‚cheap is expensive‘
😂
you are funny 😂😂🤣🤣
Yes, it’s funny. Most of the normal people cannot comprehend or don’t have the luxury to face the reality. You have to choose between the short term benefit and long term benefit, you can not have them both!which is also the biggest flaw in democratic politics.
In the US, the price labels on the shelf include price/unit, such as cents per pound. Maybe indexes of human right, pollution, intellectual, etc. should also be included.🤣🤣🤣
Do you really believe what you're saying off scripts?
The United States 🇺🇸 children want to run away from their father it's their own laws. When your child is 18 years old, he or she they've to make their own decisions 😅😅
Because money are above politics
Germany is in decline due to its policies n politics. Nothing can save it
China has a huge market for german product, and german is a key for china to sell their product to europe,
😢Because they WAANT DEM CAKE TO EAT... 😢LEADERS 😢😢😢😢❤
The reason is so simple. Germany just wants to make money.
Is this dumb news piece asking why gemany, suppposedly a sovereign country, maintains its ties with its biggest trade partner and biggest export market?
how many countries NOT maintaning economic ties with China？USA？
Anyone with a normal mind knows why.... world is just this big. Where are German to sell? USA? Western allies? Or developing world whocant afford much...
😂😂Otherwise which country to maintain ties with 😂😂😂
why not 😂
The Chinese people really like the Germans. The most beautiful young women want German boyfriends. It’s enjoyable to watch!
CIA propaganda channel 😅😅😅
agree
Sada je dobra i Kina bagra jedna Njemacka
Because our rich ppl tend to buy German cars, they think German cars are the best car and a symbol for showing off they’re rich, that’s why not cut this tide, in fact Audi, BMW, Mercedes selling not bad in China
美国严重低估了中国这个对手，事实上中国有足够的实力和美国对抗
😃😃👍🇧🇷🇷🇺🇮🇳🇨🇳🇿🇦➕️👍👏👏
wow AJ is so stupid in their comments and understanding,.
Only fools will put common sense aside and let ideology or religion decide and control who they should do business with.
Please add a little beard
Many in Europe considers this move by Germany as vey short sighted. China wants to co-operate and co-exist or dominate? Its behavior points to dominance over the last decade.
The you blinded phucface.
Ahahahahahaahahahahahaha
because Trump coming
EU - If you can't compete just complain😂
This is Awesome Good morning ❤️🇨🇳🇩🇪🦾😇👋
The title is so educated...
Why does Qatar not cut ties? Why Qatar trying to get cute 🖕
What kind of moronic question is that?
