'The IOC betrays the Olympic idea'

Michael Brand calls for a repositioning of Germany's China policy. Chancellor Scholz should take a clear position on the internment camps and human rights violations in Xinjiang demands the CDU's human rights politician. He questions whether Germany should prioritize its economy over all other interests. He demands more transparency from Volkswagen and Siemens. Brand considers the awarding of the Winter Olympics to Beijing a serious mistake. He complains, "The IOC has degenerated into a billion-dollar money machine." Felix Lee spoke with Brand.

How Influencers are to boost the image of the 2022 Olympics

Beijing is paying Western influencers to polish China's image ahead of the Olympics. The Games themselves are supposed to convey positive, emotional moments. This represents only a small part of China's aspirations to become a global media power. In this narrative, human rights violations are an invention of the envious West.

EV manufacturers need Nvidia's technology

Several Chinese EV manufacturers are relying on US chip giant Nvidia to advance their semi-autonomous driving systems. While this poses market risks for both sides, it is almost inevitable. For the time being, China will not be able to decouple from imports of key components in this sector.

China's hidebound power sector hinders energy transition

China's power sector has gained much attention since last year. On the one hand, the People's Republic launched its emissions trading scheme in the summer, which so far has only covered the power sector. At the same time, the country was hit by a severe power crisis. Many of the causes lie in the sector's outdated structure, which is also hampering China's planned energy transition.

With short track and freestyle to Winter Olympics medals

China won 100 medals at the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing, more than any other country. The People's Republic will certainly not reach the first rank in the medal table this time at this year's Winter Olympics. However, China's athletes have been winning medals in short track and ski freestyle for years. They also have good chances in these disciplines this time. In cross-country skiing, bobsleigh and ski jumping, on the other hand, China is expected to have a hard time. Even the myriad of foreign coaches of the Chinese teams could not change that.
