- Xi held talks with Germany’s president.
- Xi called for opening a “new chapter” in the all-round strategic partnership between China and Germany.
- Xi urged Germany to maintain a friendly policy toward Beijing.
- Li said China was willing to import more German goods.
Why it matters: Li’s pledge gives German goods a concrete opening for increased purchases by China, while Xi’s request asks Germany to adopt a friendlier policy toward Beijing. Together, the trade and political messages give the proposed “new chapter” a practical meaning beyond diplomatic ceremony.
