Germany's New Prime Minister: Will Firmly Urge China to Contribute to Ending the Russia-Ukraine Conflict

According to a report on the South China Morning Post on the 14th, German new prime minister Scholz expressed in his first major speech at the Federal Parliament that "we are deeply concerned about the increasingly close relationship between China and Russia. We will firmly urge China to contribute to ending the Ukraine war."

In addition, he also said that the relationship between Germany and China "is being affected by systemic competition and power politics."

Scholz also said that China will "continue to be an important partner for Germany and the EU to cope with global challenges," but at the same time, he also said that he will continue to implement the "de-risking" strategy towards China and reduce unilateral dependence.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry has repeatedly stated that China's position on the Ukrainian issue has been consistent and clear, and it has always actively worked to stop the war, promote peace, and encourage talks.
