  "account": "Beijing - China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi cautioned in a telephone conversation with his German counterpart Johann Wadephul against a trade war between China and Europe, according to reports from Beijing. Both nations are extensive strategic partners, and they should resolve their differences through dialogue, the Chinese Foreign Ministry stated late Monday evening. Wang expressed his hope that Germany would adopt a pragmatic stance and advocate for free trade within the EU while opposing protectionism. The Foreign Office confirmed on the messaging platform X that both ministers agreed that a stable global economy is in the mutual interest. \"Trade relations must be based on fair rules and genuine equal competitive conditions,\" the statement added. Germany is among the loudest critics of an unbalanced trade with China, fueled by industrial overcapacity and an undervalued currency, according to Chinese sources. Besides economic relations, the Chinese communication also discussed Iran, Ukraine, and Taiwan. Wang urged Germany to take concrete measures to maintain peace in the Taiwan Strait.",
  "summary": "Deutschland gehört zu den lautesten Kritikern eines unausgewogenen Handels mit China. Wang hofft, dass Deutschland sich in der EU für Freihandel sowie gegen Protektionismus einsetzt.",
