In dieser Woche wollte Brüssel eigentlich seinen Ansatz für ein EU-Lieferkettengesetz vorstellen — doch die Präsentation des Kommissionsvorschlags wurde verschoben. Das deutsche Lieferkettengesetz ist indes beschlossen und wird in gut einem Jahr in Kraft treten. Wie bereiten sich Unternehmen in China auf die Umsetzung vor? Es gibt noch eine Menge offener Fragen, auch wie Menschenrechtsverletzungen überhaupt festgestellt werden sollen, sagt Jens Hildebrandt. Das Gespräch führte Amelie Richter.

This week, Brussels was supposed to present its approach to an EU supply chain law - but the presentation of the Commission's proposal was postponed. Meanwhile, the German supply chain law has been passed and will come into force in just over a year. How are companies in China preparing for implementation? There are still a lot of unanswered questions, including how human rights violations will be detected in the first place, says Jens Hildebrandt. The interview was conducted by Amelie Richter.
