BEIJING, Feb. 25 -- The more turbulent and intertwined the world becomes, the more China and Germany need to enhance strategic communication, increase strategic mutual trust, and promote the continuous new development of the all-round strategic partnership between the two countries, Chinese President Xi Jinping said when meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz in Beijing on Wednesday.
The current international situation is undergoing the most profound transformation since the end of World War II, he said.
Xi put forward three suggestions for the further development of China-Germany relations, namely the two countries should be reliable partners that support each other, be innovative partners featuring openness and mutual benefit, and be cultural partners built on mutual understanding and friendship.
