The European Union should develop a coherent policy on China so that it can help the West present a united front to Bejiing, Wolfgang Ischinger, the head of the Munich Security Conference, has told DW. Ischinger said relations with China were at the heart of a new era of "competition and cooperation" described in the Munich Security Report 2021.
In some cases, he said, greater cooperation with China was needed while, in others, a policy ensuring the West could compete with it was more desirable. But at the same time, said Ischinger, the West needed to compete on the highest level. "Power in the 21st century means competing in high technology, competing in artificial intelligence, competing in the power over data. Who controls data will be controlling the world."
