作为全球制造业大国和欧洲的核心国家,德国在非洲有着重要的国家利益。非洲大陆资源丰富、市场广阔,而德国本身资源贫乏,原材料对外依存度极高。为满足自身发展需要,德国积极寻求多种方式与非洲展开合作,发展援助就成为其拓展和维护其在非洲利益的重要方式之一,也是德国外交战略的重要组成部分。 As a big manufacturing country in the world and a core country in Europe, Germany has an important national interest in Africa. The African continent is rich in resources and has a vast market. However, Germany itself is poorly resourced and its dependence on foreign materials is extremely high. In order to meet its own development needs, Germany has actively sought ways to cooperate with Africa. Development aid has become one of the important ways in which it expands and defends its interests in Africa. It is also an important part of Germany’s diplomatic strategy.
