can done a from the european council on foreign relations believes china is a country was spending some time with tonight for. the big hope in europe is that the chinese would invest in some of the new vehicles that have been crazy like the european stability mechanism. the chinese. offer lots of words of support today and yesterday but not much in the way of concrete promises to buy bonds in any case the chinese don't tend to make their bond purchases public so we don't know for example how much the chinese invested in european bones in the last two years since the euro crisis began and anyway we probably won't know so there's a lot of there's a lot of uncertainty about in the case today but we see this is a european company and so it will benefit not just germany but also france and other countries in europe but lots of the deals that have been signed. off by

german companies rolled into european companies and so to do in that sense there is a competition going on between germany and other european countries germany seems to be winning that competition. china doesn't arise to the rest of the euro germany is already has a box for the future. and the selling of the details of the old school savings will have reigning. here in germany the don't trot still very much alive and kicking in fact in the store in central berlin the good old they market is still accepted as legal tender when it comes to purchases with an exchange rate of around two dollars each marks to the euro store's manager says that there's still enough of the old currency around to warrant them taking it on by name have the reason we accept which marks is there are still plenty of people with the old currency we get quite a few people wanting to spend them in our store for it's not just in shops that

they're accepted if you find a few demarche coins down the back of the sofa germany's public telephones will happily take them off your hands germany they surely dropped the old money for the euro over ten years ago in two thousand and eleven alone though over eight million marks were brought to the bundesbank to be changed into crisp new currency but where is that cash coming from. he had to doesn't have any one of my other leave relatives gave me the school and it's a gift so i decided to turn them into something it could spend on television. we've had them lying around the house for ages we've only just got around to getting democrats changed or there are those though who say they won't part with their deutsche marks as a minister yeah i've got some i keep them as a souvenir i'm not going to change them into europe and according to the blunders bank there's still more than thirteen billion dollars each marks in circulation

they say they get returns from as far away as brazil and new zealand so unlike some eurozone members the bank won't place a time limit on accepting old money. so we will continue to take them as long as people keep bringing them it's something of a tradition here that currency from years and years ago will always be exchanged for legal tender there are conspiracy theories. though who say that in the banks vaults trillions of marks being stockpiled should the euro crisis deepen so if the cash that's returned isn't being kept for a rainy day what happens to it and once the exchange is complete those deutsche marks the shredded ending their days as very expensive confetti feature all of a r.t. . and of course you can always find plenty more stories on our website ask dot com one hesitates to be about right now this is
