(Berlin News) According to the latest research report released by the German think tank, Germany's total commodity imported from China last year reached the highest level of history and seriously relied on China imports in many fields.
According to the investigation of the German Institute of Economics (IW), in some product areas, this is quite dangerous -because China is almost dominant in the market of these products, especially some raw materials, chemical raw materials and electronic components.There are almost no other suppliers except China.
Voice of Germany reported on Sunday (June 25) that the German government called on the economy to reduce its dependence on China.But for many industrial enterprises and export -oriented enterprises, China is an extremely important market.
According to the observation of IW, in recent years, new development trends have appeared in Germany and Chinese trade exchanges: more and more goods from China from China, while Germany's export growth in China has almost fallen into stagnation.
Taking the data of 2021 as an example, among 298 products worth more than 10 million euros (about S $ 14.74 million), more than 50%of imports from Germany are from China.In 2022, 211 of these products increased significantly.According to the survey, in the fields of laptops, magnets, keyboards, and vitamin C, magnesium and caffeine, products imported from China occupy particularly high.
Researchers pointed out that when certain products are indispensable for companies, and in the visible future, they are almost impossible to be replaced by other suppliers' products, such a development trend is quite dangerous.In this case, Germany will fall into a dangerous dependence.
TheReport calls on the economy to take action as soon as possible to reduce the dependence of these fields to China, otherwise "the so -called de -risk is just a empty words."
