MyPOV: shameful. Germany Considers Watering Down Plan to Scrutinize Chinese Investments https://t.co/roxpZZ25Kg
Germany (and thus Europe) is in a really tough spot. So this kind of equivocation is to be expected. “People familiar with the plan said a decision to defang a planned foreign investment-screening law had become likelier because of fears…” 1/ https://t.co/cEwh5CxagA






Germany is reportedly considering scaling back its plans to enhance government scrutiny of Chinese investments. This decision reflects the country's complex relationship with China, marked by deep economic ties and growing geopolitical tensions. The Wall Street Journal highlighted that fears related to economic repercussions and diplomatic relations might lead to a less stringent foreign investment-screening law. This development occurs as other nations are intensifying their regulatory stance towards Beijing.
