| euronews the network - Was bedeutet der bevorstehende Machtwechsel in China für Europa? Posted: 05 Oct 2012 03:52 AM PDT | de.euronews.com Der Kongress der Kommunistischen Partei Chinas steht bevor und Experten erwarten einen Führungswechsel. Was könnte dieser für die Politik des Landes bedeuten? Spannungen zwischen China und Europa bestehen vor allem in Handelsfragen, das Reich der Mitte überschüttet den Markt mit Billigprodukten, so etwa im Bereich der Solartechnik. Im Streit befindet sich China aber auch wieder mit Japan wegen der Hoheitsrechte über Inseln in der Region. Und dann sind da natürlich auch Menschenrechtsfragen. Peking zeigt sich gegenüber den Dissidenten im Land unnachgiebig. Xi Jinping soll das Land in Zukunft führen, aber Spekulationen über seinen Gesundheitszustand geben Anlaß zur Sorge. Die Weltwirtschaft braucht den Aufschwung in China, doch wird er ihn herbeiführen können? Wie sollte sich Europa gegenüber China verhalten, das ist unsere Frage heute bei "The Network". Hat Europa überhaupt Einfluss auf China? Unsere Experten heute sind Helmut Scholz, deutscher EU-Parlamentarier für "Die Linke", Duncan Freeman vom Brüsseler Institut für China-Studien sowie Lixin Yan, einen EU-Experten der unabhängigen internationalen chinesischen Medien und erklärten Regierungsgegner. Wir hatten auch versucht chinesische Diplomaten einzuladen, von ihnen stand jedoch niemand für unsere Sendung zur Verfügung. bleiben sie bei uns : YouTube: bit.ly Facebook : www.facebook.com Twitter: twitter.com | Views: 202 9 ratings | | Time: 09:57 | More in Shows |

| Chinese growth falters again Posted: 18 Oct 2012 07:57 AM PDT | www.euronews.com Growth in China has slowed for a seventh consecutive quarter, the economy growing by just 7.4% from July to September. This is the slowest since the start of the global economic crisis in 2009. However inflation remains low at 1.9%, and retail sales, factory output and exports are slightly up. For most of the last 30 years China has posted double-digit growth every year. 7.4% would be boomtime in the West, but Chinese growth is on the slide, and has been all year. 2012's growth target is 7.5%. "The problem is that the Chinese economy is geared, and has been geared for the past 30 years, to channel resources away from the household sector to boost investment and production. So you have to reverse that and channel resources back to the household sector," says China analyst Patrick Chonavec. However analysts say the latest figures may mean the worst of the downturn is over, and that while it is probably too soon to talk about unbridled optimism, stabilisation appears to be arriving for the hard-pressed Chinese economy.

| euronews interview - Antonio Tajani on SMEs, strategy and new economy Posted: 15 Oct 2012 11:44 AM PDT | www.euronews.com Serge Rombi: "Hello and welcome. We're with Antonio Tajani, a vice-president of the European Commission and Commissioner for Industry and Entrepreneurship. Hello." Antonio Tajani: "Hello everyone." Serge Rombi: "Factories are closing, unemployment is increasing, SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises), aren't surviving the economic crisis. Is it all completely unavoidable or can we get out of it?" Antonio Tajani: "We have to get out of it. We're committed to putting the real economy at the centre of economic policies. We have made mistakes in the past, by only putting finance and services at the centre. We pushed industry and enterprise into a corner. But we have to do exactly the opposite: put industry and enterprise at the centre and use finance to help the real economy." Serge Rombi : "It's urgent because some sectors are very badly affected, I am especially thinking of the automobile sector. The great majority of European manufacturers have really suffered in this crisis. Carlos Ghosn, the CEO of Renault, said a few days ago at the opening of the Paris Motor Show: 'If things go on like this, Renault could disappear.'" Antonio Tajani: "I am working on an action plan to help the automobile sector. We are going to increase the money committed in our financial plans to 1.5 billion euros for research and innovation in the 'green' car sector. Green cars will also be at the centre of our new industrial policy. So we will be putting everything into trying <b>...</b> | Views: 141 4 ratings | | Time: 08:04 | More in Shows |

| Chinese manufacturing hits three-year low Posted: 03 Sep 2012 03:15 AM PDT | China's vast manufacturing sector has shrunk for a tenth straight month. Surveys by the government, and the banking giant HSBC, suggest China's manufacturing slowdown could be worse than first thought. Other figures show the non-manufacturing sector grew, but only slowly. That includes industries such as construction, air transport and telecommunications. Francis Lun, the general manager of Fulbright Securities, a financial group, in Hong Kong, says China's current leaders still have time to make economic changes before they are replaced in November. | Views: 2486 44 ratings | | Time: 01:12 | More in News & Politics |
