Jens Hildebrandt: ‘Who is supposed to identify forced labor in a system like China?’

This week, Brussels was supposed to present its approach to an EU supply chain law – but the presentation of the Commission’s proposal was postponed. Meanwhile, the German supply chain law has been passed and will come into force in just over a year. How are companies in China preparing for implementation? There are still a lot of unanswered questions, including how human rights violations will be detected in the first place, says Jens Hildebrandt. The interview was conducted by Amelie Richter.
