No other German ex-politician is more intensively involved in China than Rudolf Scharping. In an interview with Frank Sieren, Scharping pleads for "realism tied to our values" when it comes to dealing with China. They no longer slavishly follow Marxism-Leninism and have made enormous social progress. At the same time, none of the global challenges would be solved in a satisfactory way without involving China. This is why Scharping called for swift ratification of the EU's CAI investment agreement with the People's Republic.

Delivery drivers of meal delivery services are to receive better working conditions and higher wages.

The Cultural Revolution did not stop for China's diplomats and Chinese journalists abroad. Mao and the CCP learned from Western sympathizers about the supposed bourgeois and opulent lifestyle of its envoys. A letter from the Austrian Marxist-Leninists pleased Mao in particular. The consequence: a third of all diplomatic service staff were ordered back to China and had to face criticism.
