i'm joined via d w's chief international editor richard walker, in vision. hi richard. so schultz is the 1st you leader to make a trip to china. since the pandemic started, what are we to expect from this meeting between the 2 leaders? yeah, well i, i just wanna start real or bye bye bye. pointing out would have very, very kind of heavily choreograph visit this is that all of schoultz is on a more choreograph than even the, the usual kind of visits that you would have on, on this very high political level. so we, we saw the extraordinary images of the red carpet being rolled out by people in hazmat suits all of the corona, virus, or provisions being followed by the chinese authorities here really are extraordinarily regimented. and that means that we at the traveling press with olaf shows, we have been kind of bungled to this. a state guest house which you can see behind

me, very, it delete grounds here. a beautiful day here in beijing, while all of shots is having hit that all important meeting was she, jim ping with china as president or just a very small collection of poor reporters allowed in to see that meeting happening to were being kept very well away from the man at the pinnacle of chinese power only later will we then join for when all of sholtes he's having meetings with the premier lee could chang, so a very heavily choreograph trip. but as you mentioned, also a very controversial visit that schultz is visiting so soon after the communist party congress, which took place here in beijing to seal another 3rd time in power for she. jim ping concerns that he is becoming a dictator almost in the model of modes of dawn. and what that means for where china is headed and concerned that all of shots doesn't seem to be going as far along with the kind of rethink that many think is required of germany,

of his relationship with china, or by visiting so soon after that party congress yeah, you've touched on it, flaky, but you know, berlin and budget beijing have had deep trade relations. but we know that back home in germany, many are raising major concerns about these bilateral ties. the china. just remind us that in a little bit more detail, some of these fundamental issues. yes, so china is germany's biggest trading partner in many of his biggest companies, for example, volkswagen and the other huge automakers. they are very heavily exposed to the chinese economy and actually schultz is brought along a delegation of top company bosses of from across the german economy are also to hold talks here in beijing. this is also been seen as a sign that the, that schultz is continuing to invest heavily in the business relationship between china and germany. but the mood music around the relationship with china is really

changing, particularly within sholtes. his coalition, the green party, for instance. they've long been critics of china, and now with russia's war in ukraine, where the, where germany has seen the disruption that, that has created to it's pre existing, big economic relationship with russia. that one, of course, all of our energy many are asking the question, isn't germ, he simply over exposed to chinese, china's economy. what would happen, for instance, if china decided to go ahead and invade taiwan, something that she jim pink threatened to do just a couple of weeks ago. i that is tedious chief international annotated russia. walker keeping a close eye on that. her state visit to german chancellor. all i shall to state for the 2 at china. thank you so much. richard. no, a rush appointed official in ukraine's illegally annex her son. region says russian
