Controversial Trip

CONTROVERSIAL TRIP

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz arrives in Beijing on Friday, Nov. 4, 2022 seeking to bolster a vital economic relationship but facing criticism about his country's heavy reliance on a nation growing more authoritarian under President Xi Jinping. Scholz is the first G7 leader to visit China since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, which prompted the world's number two economy to largely close its borders. He was received by Xi shortly after arriving in Beijing at the Great Hall of the People. Scholz is also set to meet Premier Li Keqiang on the one-day trip, on which he is being accompanied by top executives.
