Chinese Premier Li Qiang said on Monday that the biggest risk is non-cooperation and the biggest hidden security danger is non-development, stressing China always supports openness and cooperation.

Li made the remarks during his meeting with German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier in Berlin, where he is on an official visit and will co-chair the seventh China-Germany inter-governmental consultation with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

China values Germany's role and stands ready to work with Germany to uphold peace, development and cooperation, play a constructive role in contributing to global stability and prosperity, and provide more certainty to a volatile world, he said.

He noted that his visit to German is to implement the consensus of the two heads of state, exploring new opportunities for bilateral cooperation and enriching the two countries' all-round strategic partnership.

Steinmeier said that Germany is willing to be a trusted partner of China to jointly safeguard trade liberalization and meet challenges such as climate change.

He said that Germany opposes decoupling and camp confrontation, and is willing to strengthen communication with China to make joint efforts to promote world peace and development.

The Chinese premier will also pay an official visit to France and attend the Summit for a New Global Financing Pact.
