China News Agency's "East-West Question, China-Europe Dialogue" recently had an exclusive dialogue with the former Deputy Speaker of the German Bundestag, Dr. Hans-Peter Friedrich.

Friedrich said that Germany is overly cautious about innovation and the development of new technologies in many fields, while the Chinese see the opportunities first and pay attention to the risks second.

He believes that Germany can learn from the Chinese how to be more optimistic about the progress made in the field of technology.
