摘要

Despite the difficulties faced by an increasing number of companies from the German export industry in the Chinese market, German-Chinese economic relations were at their “best level” in 2016. In 2016, China overtook the U.S. as Germany’s top trading partner in terms of total bilateral trade volume (EUR 170.2 bln.) (Statistisches Bundesamt 2021a). Since then, China has kept its rank for five consecutive years, according to data from the Federal Statistical Office (Statistisches Bundesamt 2021b).
