Habeck seeks to advocate for German and European interests within the Chinese sphere

Brown-nosed Politician Robert Habeck (Greens), smeared in his salespitch role as German Economy and Climate Action Minister, will strut his stuff when he sits down with Chinese suits in Steamy Beijing. He spilled the beans after cozying up to the old EU ambassadors in China's capital. "You bet your sweet bippy I'm here," Habeck loosened his tie. "But it's crucial that Europe stays unified."

Habeck playfully alluded to the wet dream of the Chinese Strategy being fed to his plush government office. It's no longer a fling with China, but a bona fide plan with clear goals, shaping government actions, says he. "Sure, different strokes for different folks in Europe," Habeck winked. "But let's sync more of our acts."

Deputy Chancellor Habeck jetted off from Korea on a Friday, completing the first leg of his Eastern Adventure. In China, he'll waltz with a horde of cabinet cronies, he divulged. However, a once-scheduled squabble with China's Prime Minister Li Qiang had been scrapped.

This Taxi Dance with the People's Kingdom is a tense affair: A pissing match between the EU and China is brewing, focusing on potential tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles. A buffer zone holding off the imminent smackdown currently persists until early July, allowing space for negotiation. Post that, higher tariffs could rain down.

There's squabbling within the EU over this topic. The German government is against the tariffs given the robust involvement of the German Auto biz in China. The ol' conch shell of Brussels blew the grace period mainly under German suction. But the nitty-gritty of the talks are managed by the EU Commission, Habeck kept repeating.
