Did China apologise for destroying the world economy with the covid virus? I doubt it. Given time, China will turn the EU into the first vassal super state. If the world wants to avoid being subservient to China, it must stop feeding the beast with trade cash. The Chinese know the way to win is to make the world dependent on products made in China. Wars are wasteful, far better to Conquer using economic power, with military power being reserved as the last resort.

Marius Chirita it is not lame propaganda, it is China's long term strategy. If you are too stupid to understand that, I suggest you start learning Cantonese and how to kowtow. Those in charge of the eu are certainly learning how to do the latter.

@myail2026 it is not just the eu that needs to stand up to China, it is the rest of the world. I often accuse the EU of empire building, but in China's case it is overt and dependent on the iniquities of globalisation. What is disturbing is the Chinese attitude to the environment and life on the planet. It appears that in the view of the Chinese government all the world's resources are their to serve the Chinese communist party and its goal of world domination. China is dangerous on so many levels, it is a nuclear power well prepared to use its weapons to get that it fails to achieve via other means. For all its scientific development, its government allowed its people to cling onto primitive beliefs, such as traditional medicine, which irrationally demands the use of the body parts of endangered species. A classic example is that of rhino horn, which is believed to be an aphrodisiac, the justification for which is simply based in phallic symbolism. Ironic, given the size of the Chinese population. China refuses to stop the trade in ivory. This vile trade kills beautiful endangered animals, to turn their body parts into useless dust Gathering ornaments which could be just as easily be produced as plastic mouldings. In the quest of industrial domination, China has shown a willingness to destroy its own environment, driving many of its own animal species to the brink of extinction and beyond in the case for example of the river dolphin. It uses its military power to aid its fishermen to fish in the protected waters of less powerful countries. It is building artificial Islands to claim territory in the south China sea. Islands that it has militarised, so that it can extend its control of the international shipping lanes in the area. The world has turned a blind eye to this Chinese expansion because most western countries have abdicated responsibility for the manufacture of the products their consumers demand, preferring to delegate the task to the Chinese. This is a serious error, since it has deindustrialised and deskilled western economies, making them dependent on Chinese exports. It is one of the reasons why so much of the west is in debt and is forced to print money. If the western nations fail to recognise the danger of feeding the oriental beast, they will soon find that the attentive servant has become the demanding master. This will be a disaster for the global environment which will be consumed by Chinese greed. Perhaps the country will suffocate on its own filthy air pollution, but this is unlikely to happen before its contribution to global warming has brought the planet to the brink of destruction and precipitated a mass Extinction event.

@myail2026 as you say the list is extensive. China seems to think they are a law unto themselves. Their selfishness will be the destruction of the planet.
