Executive Vice-President, Central Party School, Director-General, European Department, Ministry of Communist Party of China (CPC), Central Committee Foreign Affairs, Beijing (CC), Beijing Summary I. China There was general appreciation of the staggering development that went on in China in the last three decades, making a backward and isolated society into the most important rising nation in the world. However, it was mentioned that the country still has to overcome enormous social problems, especially with regard to the lagging of rural in comparison to urban areas. One Chinese participant directed attention to the importance China ascribes to climate policy, in which the country is both making headway with unilateral measures as well as sup- porting the conclusion of international agreements (pp. 30–35). The round table then addressed the question of how the world is reacting to China’s rising power. Several speakers saw growing mistrust against the People’s Republic in western countries, especially with regard to China’s readiness to observe rules that have been agreed upon internationally. A number of participants from China argued that reservations against their country were a legacy of the Cold War and had to be overcome (pp. 35–36). II. China and Europe The discussion of Chinese-European relations began with several speakers high- lighting the significance of the EU as the most important trade partner of China. It was noticed that the interests of China and the EU converge, not just in eco- nomic affairs but also in relation to political issues such as multilateralism as well as global and regional peace. This lead to a debate on the question of whether Chinese-European relations could be labeled a “strategic partnership.” Several par- ticipants were in favour of this denotation whereas others raised doubts, because such a partnership would imply the identification of very concrete political goals, something that, in their eyes, has not yet been achieved. One speaker expressed his hope that China would take on a stabilizing role in Central Asia, comparable to the role the EU plays in its own neighbourhood (pp. 37–41). While consider- ing the potential of future cooperation, a further increase in trade relations was sounded out just as the possibility of mutual efforts to curb climate change or to stabilize Africa (pp. 41–44). Weighing the preconditions for a functioning cooperation, several speakers emphasized that a real dialogue is dependent upon mutual respect and under- standing, which at times were missing on both sides. Appeals by a number of Chinese participants for lifting the EU arms embargo against China were rejected by European speakers; such a step would be premature (pp. 44–50). This was 21 followed by an exchange on how China and Europe will find common ground with regard to values. Several speakers drew attention to human rights as being the most difficult issue in Chinese-European relations. However, some participants from Europe emphasized a persistent Chinese readiness to talk on such contro- versial matters as well as China’s accomplishments in other areas (pp. 51–53). Several speakers from China accused western media of distorting the reality in the People’s Republic in their coverage while European speakers stressed that journa- lists play different roles in the respective systems (pp. 54–57). III. Global Governance While discussing the question on how much significance China and the EU ascribe to global governance, a consensus emerged that both sides strongly support the existing multilateral structures. The UN was described as an indispensable body when it comes to developing international rules and to negotiate conflicting in- terests (pp. 58–62). A longer debate ensued on how to increase the legitimacy of international institutions. There were a number of detailed suggestions, including the redistribution of voting rights to the benefit of more populous or economically weaker countries as well as strengthening the position of particular institutions such as the WTO (pp. 62–70). The round table then directed its attention to the EU and its role in the world. In light of what they considered an insufficient har- monizing of European foreign policy, several participants expressed their doubts on whether the EU could counterbalance the emerging dualism between China and the US. However, speakers from China expressed their confidence that imple- menting the Treaty of Lisbon could put the EU in such a position (pp. 70–73). The growing significance of the G 20 in global governance drew a lot of atten- tion. Some participants praised the reaction of the G 20 to the financial crisis and argued for an increased role of the group in political matters as well, while others remained

Due to the sensitivity of the sub- jects discussed, the American experts who were being consid- ered for posts in the incoming administration decided against speaking at the EUWF. This report represents a summary of the discussions held over the course of two days. Some of the key debates focused on Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Russia, and Global Governance. The re- port also includes summaries of the discussions of the three working groups (written respectively by EUISS Research Fel- lows Sabine Fischer, Jean Pascal Zanders and Esra Bulut): ‘Man- aging Unresolved Conflicts in Europe: Lessons from Georgia’, ‘Non-proliferation and arms control’, and ‘The Middle East: The Regional Dimension of the Arab-Israeli Question.’ We have re- frained from attributing particular views and ideas expressed during the event to individual speakers, but the programme and the list of participants are attached as an appendix at the end of the report.

Erste Auswirkungen der Tonnagesteuer Die noch in der vergangenen Wahlperiode verabschiedete Besteuerung von Seeschiffen nach der Tragfähigkeit (Tonnagesteuer) wurde durch den Durch- führungserlass des Bundesministeriums der Finanzen im Jahre 1999 handhab- bar gemacht. Damit wurde eine langjährige Forderung der deutschen Reeder- schaft erfüllt. Es war und ist Sinn und Zweck der Tonnagesteuer, den Seeschifffahrtsstandort Deutschland international wettbewerbsfähig zu halten und so einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Stärkung des maritimen Wirtschaftsnet- zes zu leisten. Insbesondere sollte die Tonnagesteuer die Tendenz zum Ausflag- gen aus den deutschen Schiffsregistern stoppen. Die Auswirkungen der Tonna- gesteuer sind in diesem Sinne für die maritime Verbundwirtschaft von großer Bedeutung. Wir fragen deshalb die Bundesregierung: 1. Wie viele Schiffe haben seit Einführung der Tonnagesteuer, wie viele seit Veröffentlichung des Einführungserlasses für die Tonnagesteuer optiert? 2. Erwartet die Bundesregierung weitere Entscheidungen zu Gunsten der Ton- nagebesteuerung aus dem Bestand oder aus dem Neubau? 3. Wie hat sich der Schiffsbestand des deutschen Erst- und Zweitregisters seit Einführung der Tonnagesteuer entwickelt? 4. Kann die Bundesregierung seit der Einführung der Tonnagebesteuerung Auswirkungen auf die Schiffsfinanzierung und Eignerstruktur feststellen, und wenn ja, mit welcher Tendenz? 5. Sieht die Bundesregierung in den steuerlichen Regelungen zur Tonnagebe- steuerung nach ersten Erfahrung Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten? 6.

It is important to note that whilst the international context of German foreign policy changed virtually overnight with the end of the Cold War, the content of German foreign policy was resistant to wholesale changes. To this end Eberwein and Kaiser state, ‘To a certain extent, when Germany was unified and attained full sovereignty, its position in international politics changed overnight’, in Eberwein, W.-D. and Kaiser, K.
