BERLIN : Germany must urge China to respect the confidentiality of business information in its new anti-espionage laws, Germany's powerful autos association will say in a new position paper seen by Reuters.
In it, the association which represents giants like BMW and Volkswagen as well as smaller suppliers, welcomed the fact the government had rejected a"de-coupling" from China in favour of the concept of"de-risking" - or reducing strategic dependencies on China. The VDA noted the government strategy approved of free data exchange between China and Germany, but did not mention China's cybersecurity laws or new anti-spying laws that ban the transfer of any information related to national security and broaden the definition of spying.
