For the same reason they can’t survive without standing on the mighty shoulders of Africa, Latin America, and the rest of Asia. But with this one, China got the upper hand.
Sometimes it’s said that China managed this because Europeans weren’t looking, as if China wouldn’t be able to achieve what it’s achieved if arrogant Europe was paying attention. But it was paying attention. Eyes wide open as China outplayed them move after move. Like a child playing a Grandmaster at chess, watching the board get worse and worse and not knowing what to move next or where.
The only question that remains, is which state will be first to split from the rest and join China in ‘the real movement which abolishes the present state of things’?
I expect that Hungary is the most likely state to leave EU first, Serbia is another good candidate to break from the west.
It happened with Russia almost overnight while nobody thought it would be possible. Good that it’s considered this time early
Yeah, it only plunged EU in a recession, destroyed the standard of living for the majority, and created huge political tensions. Can’t wait to see what will happen when EU cuts itself off from all the manufacturing in China after having cut itself off from cheap energy.
