Climate policy plays an important part in the German government's first China strategy. Germany is faced with a dilemma here: On the one hand, the German government wants to encourage China to show more commitment to climate action. On the other hand, it wishes to reduce its dependence on green technology imports from China. So more cooperation and more independence simultaneously – how can both goals be achieved?

Klimapolitik spielt in der ersten China-Strategie der Bundesregierung eine wichtige Rolle. Deutschland steht hier vor einem Zwiespalt: Einerseits will die Bundesregierung China zu mehr Engagement beim Klimaschutz bewegen. Andererseits will sie die Abhängigkeit von grünen Technologie-Importen aus China senken. Also gleichzeitig mehr Kooperation und mehr Unabhängigkeit – wie können beide Ziele erreicht werden?
