through improving economic ties and bringing economic ties closer together that the germany would be able to help coaxed china's or for a tarion politics into a more free open democratic chinese state and simply that isn't the case right now am i seeing increasing calls here in germany as we saw that in the report as well to simply change that strategy and take a tough us stems towards beijing the german president from for that's done much as donna has also addressed this issue in an interview on public television yesterday let's have a quick listen. is what is important now is that we make clear to china this is no momentary state of indignation and if things stay as they are it will have a lasting negative effect on ties with european western states china has no interest in that so i still hope that there's a way to reverse china's thinking. well that's the tricky part isn't it how does one revise china's way of thinking. well that certainly is the big question on the plates of those e.u. foreign ministers today and heikal mosse the german foreign minister said that he wants to see some quick progress on a co

germany has not said anything in public. it has a very weak response to pressure from china. there is a says that germany is not living up to expectations at this point. >> the chancellor's instinct is to keep dialogue open and push for change behind the scenes. but as china shows its growing assertiveness in hong kong, europe's values are being tested. >> global tech giants such as facebook, zoom and tiktok are scaling back their presence in china because of that security wall. people are worried that this will a road there freedom of expression -- there freedom of expression online. -- their freedom of expression online. >> hong kong is free and open. until now, google, facebook, whatsapp, telegram and twitter have all stopped taking requests for user data from hong kong. online freedom of expression in the city is seen as under threat. >> they are worried -- the worry where the fear is about the cyber expression of the freedoms here. >> the new lome is that police can enforce -- deleting online internet content chain laws can lead to a fine. >> i believe that the government

germany lost just ten. china is up. why aren't we the best? he's going to have to answer to you for that. and remember, he told you this the other week. >> i'm not a good loser. i don't like to lose. >> of course, he doesn't like to lose. it's what is he willing to do to avoid taking a loss? he gave you the answer tonight. >> i don't want to delay. i want to have the election. but i, also, don't want to have to wait for three months. and then, find out that the ballots are all missing and the election doesn't mean anything. that's what's going to happen. do i want to see a date change? no. but i don't want to see a crooked election. >> how does he know that's what's going to happen? he's lying to you. just like he did with his 2 million fraudulent votes to explain why he got whooped in the popular vote by hillary clinton. he's lying to you. but see, this is america. this is a republic. it is not a banana republic. we are bigger than any one piece, even the president. so, while trump may be saying things that are bananas, he is still in an actu

china's muslim minority. well this effectively comes down to trade barriers for the e.u. level and also particularly for germany the european union as a whole is china's 2nd largest trading partner so there's a lot in the balance the german ministers for years now have been increasing ties with beijing if you look at michael's last 15 years in office as well she's been to china 12 times and also the issue of 5 g. networks and the development of those networks in across the e.u. bloc is also a big issue right now and concerns over huawei the chinese telecoms giant and whether or not they should be included in this development of those networks to cyber security concerns and at the same time you've got the u.s. putting increasing pressure on you as well to follow their lead and indeed exclude qua way from those developments so once again you see germany and the e.u. as a whole caught in the crossfire between the u.s. and china which again reiterate that stems that we heard from angle america last week which was. to become more self-reliant and stand up for itself mol in the coming years and maybe we'll know more

china relationship let's talk about that barbara where does germany stand on that given the germany has been extremely critical or overly critical of china in the past. we know that the german economy is so closely linked to exports to china that the german welse and german car industry the whole machinery sector and is closely linked to china so for germany that's always been the point to stay well back to not sort of get drawn into the middle east not to sort of interfere too much on the america it's too honest not to have a mentioned human rights and human rights breaches on the side of china in the past but she has always been careful not to push too far now she might be in a position that she will have to act more decisively and that is going to be a very difficult task to on the european stage. in brussels thank you very much. now to some of the other stories making news around the world russia's president vladimir putin has cast his ballot in the nationwide vote on constitutional changes that would allow him to stay in power until 2036 it's the last day of a week long voting proc

china. you can understand why germany is where it is. ticipates, do you one of the other things to come out of this summit being a tougher line toward the e.u.'s relationship on china? noah: i do not know if they will have time to discuss china, but germany has the presidency of the e.u.. china-e.u. relations was going to be the top priority of the german presidency. the has been pushed down priority list because of covid-19. now the focus is very much on recovery. the e.u. does need to come together and develop a common china policy. behavioreen china's during this pandemic. decisioneen the u.k.'s to phase out huawei from its 5g network. debates we have seen in the u.k. are happening all over europe. there is a need for europe to come together to talk about this. alix: i wonder how all the dynamic plays out between china, europe, russia, and the u.s. in that we have a lot of regression in the u.s. because of nord stream 2. then you have china in the background as well. how do these chess pieces wind up playing around each other over the

electric motors came from india the fans were made in the philippines there assembled in china in center germany along with numerous other parts all made in china. but the coronavirus pandemic has interrupted some of the company's supply chains. obviously the coronavirus affects our supply chains some of the lock downs are still in place on we saw an indian supplier drop out we were able to fall back on a replacement supplier in china that way we've managed to navigate our way through it all. now the mid-sized companies looking to european companies for components. the hope is that shorter supply chains will be more reliable the turnaround was prompted by a typical globalization debacle a few years ago a key supplier a u.s. company relocated its electric motor production from the philippines to india because indian wages were lower but it took much longer than planned to get production up and running that meant no motors for the multistory. units many people and it's not much use if i find suppliers in germany to replace my chinese suppliers if they source all their raw materials in china then i

china's muslim we are minority as well. exactly and this comes down a lot to trade that germany level and also at the e.u. level that is china's 2nd largest trading partner in the world and so for a long time the economic ties of overshadowed the progress being made in the e.u. when it comes to taking the hard line towards china and its abuses of human rights at the same time the e.u. still grappling at the moment with how to move forward in terms of the 5 g. networks across the entire block now earlier this year. you decided that it wouldn't implement an all out ban on including the chinese telecoms giant huawei in the developments of 5 g. networks here in europe but at the same time there's pressure growing from the u.s. as well on the european union to indeed follow the u.s. lead and didn't implement strict strict restrictions against the involvement of huawei so once again a year there yet another example of how it's being caught in the crossfire between the u.s. and china and as a reiterating again what we heard from angola machall in the last couple of weeks as well as germany took on the presidency

countries have new economic ties with china for instance through the belgian road initiative which could make them reluctant to point the finger at beijing germany which no holds the e.u. council presidency might be expected to use its leverage to get tough with china but chancellor merkel hardly sounds urgent dimensionally function in human rights questions are always on the agenda you know bilateral talks with china that includes the human rights dialogue which i want to continue here. china is germany's biggest trading partner more than 200000000000 euros worth of goods are traded between the 2 countries annually but no government wants to be seen to tread softly when fundamental rights are being challenged. there are calls for a more robust approach from an unexpected quarter the leader of germany's business friendly free democrats on. kong was a place with a lively civil society as well as great economic freedom and the rule of law both of those in there are being called into question we should not make it a question of either economy or democracy we should make the case for the idea of freedom and that for reliable agreements. for now the

i think china is germany's biggest export market right now. r, "we must continue to seek dialogue and conversation with china." so my point is, in the world of realpolitik and pragmatism, do you think the international community, the western powers, are really, really going to put a squeeze on china? we're working towards it. if you look at the past decades, the piecemeal strategy has been really dominant in not only us, but western politics. but for now, you can see more and more countries being more assertive towards china. for example, the us, the uk, australia, and we could see a structural and all—round change in terms of how we see china. maybe that... well, that kind of spread does not arrive in germany, or in european union as a whole, yet. but we are pushing for that change, because we all witnessed how china grew but failed to meet the expectation of the international community, which it does not liberalise, and it does not democratise. and that, while these two things are the expectation of the world for past decades, ithink, yes, in
