EU is a complete disappointment. I've never seen so much idiocy in Europe at one time as there is now. So much idiocy, hipocricy and double standards have never before been gathered in European leaders. NEVER.

20% of all cars in China are European. Only 8% of all cars in Europe are Chinese. France and Germany export over 85% of all the cars they manufacture. China only exports 15% to 17% of all the cars they manufacture. There is a over capacity indeed in the world, but it ain't China.

What are some of the imbalanced trade practices against France in China? China wants to buy engines for their aircraft, machines for their factories, chips for their computers and phones, and wheels for their high-speed trains but France and Germany refuse to sell them. China's market is still full of German cars.

Why did Macron bring his mother?
The Chinese built up a strategic position over 15 years in rare earth processing technology and capacity. This is what you call strategic positioning, Europe on the other hand has been focused on socialist goals and green initiatives which have not be sustainable or bankable. There are many companies from the EU which have moved their innovation centres to China, this is because there is fierce competition in China not a Oligopoly environment like the EU.
France obviously not a sovereign country. Macron has to be babysat by van de Leyen. Peace

Any discussion on trade issue can never resolve especially with the presence of Von der Laying and the demands from her. She is doing all the bidding of the US with its demands, it led to nowhere.
Like it or not, the West needs to understand that there is no more alienation or privilege, it needs to get used to living like all the countries of Africa and South America... which have more natural sources than the West, In the end, everyone should be equal.

In all honesty I like China 🇨🇳 and I am British and the reason is that they are better then Russia is as not much harsher as Russia is that’s why I like China 🇨🇳 as a English person they aren’t as bad as the USA 🇺🇸 portrays them as
647% increase in chip shipments to a Russian missile factory in Eastern Ukraine from China, 2 months before the war started in Ukraine and this guy says China has kept its distance with the Ukrainian conflict. Sure, if you call "647 times more" "keeping its distance". People would baffle me, if they didn't want their retirement funds secured. I'd prefer they be secure but, I'm alive now, not yesterday and certainly not tomorrow, the mystery that it is.
