In contrast to the Merkel era,the emphasis on ideological disputes and competition with China is evident in the new German government's Coalition Treaty and several of its new ministers'expressions about China.Against the background of the rising antagonism between China and the West as well as the continuous efforts of the US to urge Europe to curb China in recent years,Germany's understanding of China tends to be negative.Besides,because of the changes in Germany's political landscape and in Sino-German economic and trade relations,the new government is likely to reinforce its defense against and pressure upon China,reduce its strategic dependence on China,strengthen the coordination with its European and American allies for a collective China policy,and compete for dominance in economy and trade,science and technology,global infrastructure,and rules and standards.Sino-German relations may fluctuate,but because of the binding of the economy and trade between the two countries,internal contradictions inside the Western Bloc,and the German tradition of diplomatic pragmatism,the new government will adjust its China policy on the basis of continuation,so that the reversal of the Sino-German relations is hardly to be triggered.
