Germany hopes for an increase in Chinese investments that will revitalize its real economy. This is what the German ambassador to China Michael Clauss declared, and it is only the latest of many signs that testify to the particularly favorable moment that relations between the two countries are going through.
Trade treaties worth $18 billion were signed early last month at a meeting between Chancellor Angela Merkel and Premier Li Keqiang.
"The details of a new season of economic cooperation between our two countries were discussed" said the ambassador "and in particular the high technology sector was identified as the most promising one for an advantageous collaboration".
"China and Germany" added Clauss "intend to join forces to enhance research in the field of advanced technology, both in the public and private sectors".
"Germany" Clauss recalled "is China's most important European economic partner and, consequently, the most qualified to supply the Asian power with the innovative and increasingly advanced technology that Chinese companies need".
The renewed commitment to economic cooperation between the two countries has already led China to be one of the three largest sources of foreign capital for Germany, with a positive impact on employment opportunities in that country. And much more is expected in the future, as a result of the acceleration given by the leaderships of the two countries to the development of economic cooperation projects.
