a home can, we can keep doing what we're doing. and that's why your green revolution is absolutely necessary. europe revealed the future is being determined. now our documentary theory will show you how people to companies and countries are rethinking everything and making make changes your revealed this week on d. w. ah, a systemic competitor and rival, that is the german government assessment of china in a shift, a strategy berlin wants to put relations with its biggest trade partner on a new footing. we'll hear from a representative of germany's biggest port. what that move means to them. also

coming up with the u. k. government, nancy tax hikes and spending cuts. we'll hear from our correspondent about whether the measures are likely to help solve the countries cost of living crisis and will go to argentina or a major drought hitting the country's wheat fields. is threatening to further increase already high prices for food or op of chris kolber on berlin. welcome to the program. beijing says a league to paper on germany's new china strategy is a throwback to cold war times. earlier this week, german media report details on how berlin wants to deal with the country. it calls a competitor and systemic rival. this new strategy would be a significant shift to how germany is approaching china. the report a draft shows that to germany wants human rights standards to play a major role in future economic relations that includes keeping forced labor out of

supply chains. berlin also warns of lopsided investment. in recent years. china has been buying up companies and infrastructure abroad while blocking similar axes within its own borders. now there are the most recent example of that chinese state shipping giant costco, buying a steak and a freight terminal in the port of hamburg after hefty political wrangling. costco was allowed to acquire a for 24.9 percent stake in the terminal critic say china could use the 2nd largest port in europe as a political weapon. transfer of shawls overruled opposition from 6 coalition allies and ministries and national intelligence service and allowed the move to move forward. it's a tough call. china is the port of the port of hamburg, most important trading partner accounting for nearly 30 percent of container

throughput. it provides thousands of jobs, but called for less dependence on china are growing. the mid other i spoke to actually my turn port of hamburg marketing ceo and i asked him how concerned he was that the german government is warning chinese investment in ports around the world could be used for the military. this is something where we have to be concerned about in general, but looking into the example which we had in hamburg, which we have in hamburg having a minor share investment in one of the terminals smallest terminal in the port of hamburg that doesn't refer to any kind of military ah, topics, or, or even infrastructure tropics. this is something which is pretty normal around the world in ports and international trade, as well as the shipping lines are of acting on an economical

basis. and they have to secure the possibility in the ports for themselves. so it's a pretty normal exercise. what we are looking at here, germany wants to put his relations with china on a new footing. china obviously is germany is biggest trade partner, but it is a showing, a more assertive stands on the world stage. so is recalibrating this relationship, the right step? of course, i mean we are calling for that since since years now because it's much better for us being an international trade draft, some kind of guidelines in order to, to act on the international floor. and that's what we're waiting for since since h as now. and so we are looking forward to draft is kind of a guideline from the government. and, and this is what we would like to have. but on the other hand, we should be aware of that. europe and germany in full is pretty

much dependent on international trade and especially as well on the trade between china and europe. and we should at least take that in mind, preparing this kind of strategy for future relationships. and of course, the hammer part is heavily depending on trade with china. this, the strategy dad's apparently in the works is to contain, among other things, regular stress test for companies with significant exposure to china. how do you expect hamburg ports, business with chinese logistics companies like costco, to develop these plans? i mean, we have been in contact or we have cosco as a client in hamburg since for 2 years now. so we are pretty much aware of we are talking to, to whom we are talking to and we have

a very relationship which is very trustful, to be honest. and we are talking not politics. here we are talking about handling containers, which are heavily needed to, to run the, the german and european economy apparently. so we tried to, to fulfill a duty which is which is handling of containers at the end of the day. not more. and so we are pretty reluctant about any kind of stress tests with the chinese company because the companies are on the duty to fulfill their duty in terms of handling containers. transporting, doing the justice. trade with china is the most important business of the hamburg port. now, higher costs to be less dependent on one big customer need to be taking into account. the chancellor says when it comes to doing future business,

what's your take on that? when we, we, of course we have more than 30 present or one 3rd of all the car will be handled in the port of hamburg is related to china coming from china, going to china import an export. so, but not all the cargo which is being handled and the port of hamburg is being transported by chinese companies. so there are a lot of other ship owners in line us shipping companies which are transporting these cargo in these containers. so we are not relying on on costco, for example. so there is others like lloyd, like m a, c, c, m a c, c m, which are deeply involved in transport of all the containers worldwide. it's an international business. it's done. there's no trade. so we are not dependent in this respect on, on one customer, i come at an head of port of hamburg marketing. thank you for thought. thank you.
