Merkel: Will keep addressing concerns over Beijing's treatment of One Country Two Systems
Angela Merkel, Chancellor of Germany, criticized China of horrible treatment of minorities in China and showed grave concerns on the suppression of Hong Kong dissidents.
Merkel addressed the Bundesrat, the German Parliament, ahead of the EU special summit which China's human rights appear as a top agenda item. The German leader believes China has repeatedly undermined the One Country Two Systems principle. In future dialogue with China, Germany will clearly express concerns over human rights issues and Hong Kong's situation.
Merkel added that there is currently no significant progress on investment negotiations between China and EU. She reiterated that the EU hopes to establish fair trade with China over reciprocity and market access, and aims to make progress by end of the year.

德國總理默克爾指責中國惡劣與殘酷對待中國少數民族，並對北京打壓香港異見人士表達深切關注。 默克爾在歐盟領導人峰會舉行前夕，到德國聯邦議會發表講話，認為「一國兩制」原則一次又一次遭到削弱，強調今後與北京的所有對話中，都必須提出人權問題，以及對香港局勢的擔憂。 默克爾又說，歐盟與中國在商討投資協定方面，目前未有太大進展，重申歐盟希望與中國進行公平貿易，希望雙方到年底前，在互惠互利、市場准入方面取得突破。
