Germany must not be “naïve” about the “very real” risk of China invading Taiwan, one of Berlin’s top economic advisers has warned. Monika Schnitzer, who leads the Council of Economic Experts, said the country must reduce economic ties with the world’s second biggest economy to avoid “a real moment of conflict” if Xi Jinping sends troops onto the island.
Seriously most German investment into China is in the car industry and BASF. The first is basicly destroying all hope of Germany managing the green transition in the energy sector by lobbying, so activly make Germany worse. BASF is even worse. The last big operation they did was financing the NordStream pipelines, develop gas fields in Russia, while signing massive gas deals with Gazprom. When all of these blew up with the war in Ukraine, the managment was extremly helpfull to Putin by spreading Kremlin propaganda in Germany and the entire EU.
In other words, the pain to the German economy from something like this, would massivly help Germany in the long term.
