(ANSA-AFP) - BERLIN, 12 APR - Germany on Wednesday accused
China of inflaming tensions with its recent military drills
around Taiwan, ahead of a visit by Foreign Minister Annalena
Baerbock to Beijing. "We have the impression that measures such
as threatening military gestures... increase the risk of
unintended military clashes," foreign ministry spokeswoman
Andrea Sasse said. Germany is "working with our international
partners to contribute to de-escalation" in the region, she
added. Baerbock will set off later on Wednesday for China, where
she will discuss Taiwan and the war in Ukraine with top Chinese
foreign and defence officials. (ANSA-AFP).
