Statement from the Office of German Foreign Affairs Minister Frank Dietrich

Germany is honored to attend the signing of the Free Trade Agreement in Beijing alongside our partners in the Global Economic Stability Organisation. As one of the world's leading economies, Germany remains committed to promoting economic growth, strengthening international cooperation, and contributing to the prosperity of both the European Union and the global community. Our agreement with China, Ireland, and Japan marks an important step toward expanding trade and fostering mutually beneficial economic partnerships. Germany's participation in this agreement does not restrict our ability to develop new relationships or pursue additional trade opportunities. We remain committed to open dialogue and constructive engagement with nations around the world. As Foreign Affairs Minister, I welcome discussions with all partners willing to work together in good faith to advance shared prosperity and global stability.
