On the evening of March 22nd, the website of the Chinese Embassy in Canada published a record of Chinese Ambassador to Canada Wang Di’s recent interview with Canada’s largest English language media, The Globe and Mail, on issues related to China Canada relations. Wang Di expressed the expectation that Canada will establish a correct understanding of China, adopt a more proactive and pragmatic policy towards China, and create a fair, just, and non discriminatory environment for exchanges and cooperation in various fields between China and Canada; It is hoped that Canada and China will meet each other, deepen mutual trust between the two peoples, and promote the improvement and development of bilateral relations. He said that China’s understanding of China Canada relations is that China is willing to cooperate with Canada at any time because it is beneficial for the people of both sides. But I hope our sincerity can receive a sincere response from Canada as well. When asked if China’s recent imposition of tariffs on Canada is a request to take sides, Wang Di said that the relationship between Canada and other countries such as the United States is a matter for Canada and those countries, not for China. But Canada should not sacrifice China’s interests and China Canada cooperation when developing relations with other countries. The countermeasures taken by China against Canada are discriminatory measures against Canada towards China. He also pointed out that fairness in trade between the two countries cannot be determined by surplus or deficit. But unilateral discriminatory tariffs are unfair. Both the tariffs imposed by other countries on Canada and the tariffs imposed by Canada on China are unfair.

On March 22, local time, German President Steinmeier officially signed an amendment to the Basic Law, clearing the last hurdle for the German government’s massive fiscal plan to finance through new debt. This massive fiscal plan will provide hundreds of billions of euros in funding for defense, infrastructure, and climate investments. This decision marks a significant turning point in Germany’s fiscal policy. According to the amendment, the German government will relax the debt ceiling set in the Basic Law in specific areas, allowing new debt to be used for defense, civil defense, intelligence agencies, and cybersecurity construction. This means that any related expenditures exceeding 1% of GDP can be financed by the government through borrowing. Based on the current economic scale, this amount is expected to exceed 44 billion euros by 2025. In addition, the government will establish a special fund of up to 500 billion euros, which is not subject to the debt ceiling and will mainly be used to repair Germany’s aging infrastructure.
