“Without the business in China, the necessary restructuring here would not be so possible,” Mr. Brudermüller, BASF chief exec, told reporters at his company’s annual earnings conference in February. “Name me just one investment in Europe where we could make money.”

BASF, with 30 production facilities in China, is pushing ahead with plans to spend 10 billion euros ($10.9 billion) on a new chemical production complex that would rival in size its massive headquarters complex in Ludwigshafen, which covers about four square miles.

“We have to cooperate much more closely with our local partners in order to listen to the customers in the Chinese region,” Mr. Blume told reporters at the company’s annual earning meeting last month. “This will be part of a strategy for 2030.”

Volkswagen, which has more than 40 plants in China, announced a new effort to tailor models to Chinese customers’ wishes, with features like in-dash karaoke machines, and will invest billions in local partnerships and production sites. It’s part of a theme unveiled by the German automaker last year: “In China for China.”

showed that decoupling from China would be very costly for all of Europe, but especially Germany, given the strength of its economic ties. Calculations by the institute, based on gross domestic product from 2019, showed that Germany could lose income worth more than €131 billion. And it could be even more if China retaliated.

On Thursday, Baerbock is set to visit a school in Tianjin that teaches German as part of the German Foreign Office's PASCH initiative. She will also visit a wind turbine factory owned by a German company.

Baerbock is set to meet with China's Foreign Minister Qin Gang on Friday. The two will take a high-speed train to Beijing, around 150 kilometers (93 miles) away. In Beijing, Baerbock is set to meet with other top Chinese officials including Vice President Han Zheng and Wang Yi, the top Chinese foreign policy official and a former foreign minister.

India with it's 90% Russian equipped military which is facing the himalayas in the China direction?

The only direction India could feasibly hit is Pakistan, hoping that an US attack on China will stop Beijing from interfering. But I don't see this war as one that India will cleanly win, even if China doesn't assist Pakistan.

Besides, once the US distraction runs out (how long can US keep up offensives into Chinese waters until they run out of ships?), India will find itself into a 2 front war. Khalistan is imminent.

Bro the Chinese need to established the same Iron brotherhood with Indonesia, Iran, the Saudis, the Argentinian or the whole of Latin America. The Chinese need to move the battlefield in their neighborhood, they need to increase the threat level and see the collective west collapse from within from social and economic pressure just like the Romans.

While she is guest there, China could certainly not make her change her extremist views against Russia, but at least Beijing can help draw international attention and parallels between it's own situation with separatists and the situation the Ukrainian state is in. Increased trade would also be possible.

That is probably the full extent of common ground that can be achieved with the non Eurosceptic European leaders.

Nope. There's no need to be so THIN SKINNED that any perceived insult hurled by countries that's obviously under enormous pressure from their master must be treated equally harsh. China would then show the world that their coming reign as a Superpower isn't any different than the current country that's actually increasingly hated.
