The China factor: Compete or double down?

Germany's industrial model thrived for years thanks to soaring Chinese demand. But the relationship has recently become more contentious. This week, hosts Jeremy Cliffe and Jana Puglierin are joined by Janka Oertel to discuss the future impact of political and economic divisions over Germany's China policy. And another topic, hot off the press, is Friedrich Merz's controversial decision to pass votes on asylum and migration with the support of the far-right AfD. How might this influence the election result?

Guests:

Janka Oertel, ECFR Asia programme director and senior policy fellow, and author of Ende der China Illusion
