German Chancellor Olaf Scholz will visit China in April, accompanied by three ministers and a high-ranked delegation. Michael Borchmann, former head of the European and International Affairs Department of the federal German state of Hesse, shared his observation on Scholz’s China visit and the China-Europe ties. Borchmann pointed out that this visit signals the importance of developing the relationship with China for Chancellor Scholz.
In addition, he stressed that meeting people personally is good for immunizing against hostile propaganda, and emphasized the significance of China-Europe Railway Express in securing supply chains in unquiet times.
