BERLIN - German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Tuesday urged Western global powers to include China in their multilateral system and treat Beijing equally rather than freeze it out and risk slipping into a Cold War-style bipolar order.

Speaking after receiving a prize at the American Academy in Berlin, attended by former U.S. Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and John Kerry, Merkel said China’s economic success posed challenges. “But I plead for us not to fall into a new bipolarity, but rather that we try, with the results and experiences we have, to include a country like China in multilateralism and treat it at least equally,” she added.

Merkel is planning an EU-China summit when Germany takes the EU’s rotating six-month presidency in the second half of this year, and wants to keep up Germany’s lucrative trade ties with China without antagonizing the United States.
