No not dividing the Europe but a reminder to Europe to stand on their own feet.

If not for "That Women"....
Europe is a divided state between peace and wars. You either stick with America for geopolitical tension or China for trades, investment and PEACE.
EU options: 1). Aligns with US, results: Block confrontation, conflicts and endless wars, ecomimy crisis and poverty. 2). Aligns with China, results: Win-win coorporation, peace, economic development and prosperity.

Countries that have become rich and prosperous over the last 2 decades because of China > EU,US,Australia,Japan,Korea,Singapore. & Countries that have declined because of the US > UK, Canada, EU, Japan, Korea, Phillipines, Ukraine, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Iraq, Pakistan, Balkans, Africa, Mexico, Argetina.
LOOKS LIKE HE'S DOING SOME BUSINESS WITH THOSE COUNTRIES THAT ARE NOT PARANOID AND WANT TO DEVELOP THEIR COUNTRY'S.
The last speaker has an excellent point: China doesn’t ever complain that EU or USA makes too many LV bags, Boeing and Airbus planes, cognacs, (or iPhones) so why is EU and the USA complaining about Chinese EVs? Surely you need to accept that some countries are better than your own industries sometimes?
what makes you think EU is united? the West is united? there are quite a few countries who wanted to escape from the NATO prison. 😁😁
Xi is an honest and honourable man much respected and loved around the whole world.

@@This_tub better than what you have right now ..and your other leading candidate isn't that great either. So laugh it up.. coz in the end it's the citizens that suffer.
Only US has the power to manipulate EU, including dividing EU.
It's time for EU countries to free itself from the clutches of America. What has America done for these countries? The Russia Ukraine war is the direst result of America's desire to maintain its hegemony.
You forgot to mention that Xi also visited Serbia to commemorate the 25th anniversary of NATO bombing of the Chinese embassy in Serbia. It is a reminder to the EU on the destructive nature of NATO 25 years ago, and also now with the Ukraine war resulting from NATO’s continual eastward expansion towards Russia.
A good debate on subsidies, overcapacity, etc follow the WHO guidelines. As long as every countries should cooperate, the world is a peaceful place to live in. A country can only prosper as what John has said and elaborated. Ending with - to be competitive and in order to stay ahead, instead of protectionism !!
Historically if you look at Europe, it has been very divisive until perhaps the formation of the EU. Nonetheless, UK has left which is perhaps the first crack in its alliances. It takes one or two more cracks to weaken it further, and likely from within (weak economies, social divide, etc), or from USA’s foreign policies (NATO expansion, tariffs), and not from China. China in fact has repeated its policy is win-win, unlike the USA or NATO.
Lawless is becoming US those people who have and those who don’t - they nasty they want to stay #1 in the world.
Europe fought 2 World Wars in the past. Now do you still think they are UNITED ??
This headline is an insult to all the EU leaders!
It is ridicolous say that, it is only free market
There is no war, but unity in Europe already?
How many times have US divided EU in the last few decades???
The governments in EU got to decide for themselves. Is it good for them
The title of the news should be: Is China trying to make world peace and a better place to live?
The EU chairwomen is for usa instead of EU
On EV, Europe is going wrong way again like their mobile phones (Nokia & Ericsson), even with all the protection, they cannot compete likes of Apple, Samsung & Sony ... smart phones. Very different technology and engineering approach. EVs is literally smartphone on wheels, just motor, no need engineer, gearbox, radiator like traditional car. EU car makers should sponsor some mobile phone makers to help design while they make their new EVs.
The day, "that Women" in not in charge of Europe aka Germany, France, Poland would be the day of peace with China PRC.
Chairman Mao: Make a lot of friends and very few enemies.
In the words of Xi Jinping, as it modernises and becomes more prosperous, “China will neither tread the old path of colonisation and plunder, nor the crooked path taken by some countries to seek hegemony once they grow strong".
Thief thinks everyone is a thief.
But Macron went to China, so did Germany’s President.

But that was because they are peace loving saints, having the las ditch effort stopping China’s warmongering behaviour. 😅😅😅
This roundtable basically spreading their western/ US views/propaganda. Was there is need drive a wedge into Europe? With Germany going into a recession with high priced oil and gas. Same was happening in UK, France, Netherlands, The wedge could only get deeper by gravity. Outside forces ( China) not require.
