In a telephonic conversation with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Xi said the strategic and global significance of China-Germany and China-European Union (EU) ties has become even more prominent as the world undergoes accelerated changes unseen in a century and the international landscape is marked by transformation and turbulence.
China is willing to maintain close high-level exchanges with Germany, respect each other's core interests and consolidate the political foundation of bilateral relations, he was cited as saying by a state-controlled media outlet.
Xi said both sides should not only continue to expand the existing cooperation in traditional areas, but seek more collaboration in cutting-edge fields like artificial intelligence and quantum technology, and strengthen exchanges and cooperation in areas including climate change and green development.
China hopes Germany will offer more policy support and facilitation for two-way investment, and provide a fair, transparent and non-discriminatory business environment for Chinese enterprises, he added.
