Habeck’s "Truth of Huatian" is actually very nonsense

Author:Global Times Time:2022.09.19

The German Economic Minister Habeck has repeatedly firmed to China recently. After the seven -way Group Economic and Trade Meeting held last week, Habeck claimed that Germany's "innocence has ended" in China. "Dependence" to the Chinese market and products. In our opinion, Habeck's remarks are neither professional nor clueless.

Obviously, Habeck has his "mature old way", and he captures the "tough needs" of some people in Europe and the United States. However, an Economic Minister acknowledged that his country was once "naive" and continued to benefit from this "naive". Not only did he not be logical, but even a little low. Judging from the German economy's largest pillar car manufacturing, Volkswagen's sales in China accounted for 49%of its total sales, with 42%, 36%, and 34%of Audi, Mercedes -Benz, and BMW, respectively. It is similar to Bayer, BASF, Siemens, and many other German invisible champion companies.

What does this mean for Germany? It means that the Chinese market supports large German companies that can not use the inside volume, but also means that ordinary German workers work for 35 hours a week to ensure high salary benefits. The status of the manufacturing industry is more firm. At the same time, more than 1/10 imported goods from Germany came from China, and the German people bought a lot of cheap products. These accounts are not difficult to count, and the benefits they bring to the Germans are real.

In fact, even some Western media who tried to magnify Habeck's remarks had to mention that in the past 6 years, China has successively became German's largest trading partner. In 2021, the bilateral trade volume of China -Germany was US $ 235.12 billion, a year -on -year increase of 22.5%. In the first half of 2022, Germany's direct investment in China reached a record high of 10 billion euros, and its imports from China increased by 46%year -on -year. Habeck deliberately interpreted the "complementary" and "mutual integration" of the Sino -German economy as a unilateral "over -dependence on China" in Germany. This argument is just ignored. In the context of the globalization, the industry chain is intertwined. Mutual dependence will help enhance the stability of bilateral relations. On the contrary, forcibly promoting "decoupled" and "broken chain" for ideological reasons can bring greater instability and uncertainty.

The past and reality of Sino -German economic and trade cooperation all made Habeck, who shouted in their mouths, seemed "naive". This is why many industry organizations and many German companies have clearly criticized the German Automobile Association, German metal and electrical industry employers associations, and many German companies have clearly criticized that the deterioration of economic and trade cooperation in China is "naive and fatal in terms of politics and economy. The German economy is already difficult, and Habeck's obviously contrary to the interests of the German national interests.

The main excuse for "reducing dependence on China" promoted by Habeck is to reduce risks with diversification of trade. However, "diversification" should not be "political", and relations with China, especially economic and trade cooperation, should not become the hardest hit areas for individual political parties and certain politicians shows "tough performances". Needless to say, there are always differences and differences between the two countries, but today the differences and differences between China and Germany are not greater than 50 years ago. In the past, China and Germany successfully controlled the differences, expanded the cooperation, and benefited from it. What is worrying is that the halbergs have a dangerous tendency to control cooperation and expand differences.

Perhaps it was this point that for Habeck's radical remarks, Prime Minister Tsurtz came forward to "extinguish the fire", saying "opposing all people who are now advocating the concept of globalization" and "we won't do that." We hope that this rational and pragmatic voice can always occupy the upper hand, because compared to those politicians who are drunk and seek political and private, they conform to the trend of economic globalization and focus on the overall national interests of Germany.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Germany. In the past 50 years, Sino -German bilateral trade has increased by more than 800 times. The two sides have achieved common development and mutual achievements through continuous deepening and pragmatic cooperation. The key is to adhere to mutual respect and win -win cooperation. We hope that Habeck can have some sense of historical and responsible, truly summarize historical experience, and actively respect objective laws, instead of using ideological and confrontation thinking to drive their "chariot" to hit Essence
