LOL!

WOW.

quote:

The leader of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and the likely successor to Chancellor Angela Merkel said that Germany should refrain from trying to contain the rise of Communist China for fear of sparking a second Cold War.



And I love this part:


quote:

“The question is — if we’re talking about ‘restraining’ China, will that lead to a new conflict? Do we need a new adversary?” Laschet said in an interview with the Financial Times, adding: “And there the European response was cautious, because, yes, China is a competitor and a systemic rival, it has a different model of society, but it’s also a partner, particularly in things like fighting climate change.”

If the US thinks Europe will have its back against China, the US is making a potentially fatal mistake.

Seems like Russia and China have free reign to invade any non NATO or UN countries.

Good for them. I hope this works out well for the libs

Sounds like you already have one

A partner in making sure you fight climate change, while they gain ground globally hiding behind developing country status. A “developing country” with a GDP dwarfing any in Europe, and the highest carbon footprint in the world.

I have heard the stated goals of Globalism.

I understand the real drive behind globalism.

I can't relate to the level of desire one must have for money and power to actually think accomplishing is worth what you have to do to society.

It's remarkable how ignorant these people are about history and human nature. I mean shite, it has been less than a century since we saw the devastating effects of appeasement and yet here we are again.

We need to disband NATO and invade Greenland and Canada. Control the NA landmass outside of Mexico. Rip off the bandaid of being dependent on Chinese goods and let Mexico be our sweatshop. Withdraw from foreign policing. Let China fall on that sword. Go back to being friends to all, allies to none.

3.???????????
4. Profit

Germany will be lucky to "contain" the radical Islamic population which they allowed into their Nation. China and Climate Change are the lesser of their problems.

He's looking up and chuckling. The Fourth Reich ended up being China.

yeah, despite being the world's #1 polluter that has made zero moves to change that designation.

Climate change regs for thee, but not for me.

I remember a time that Europe tried to appease an enemy to prevent war. In the 1930s. They’re right, it kept them out of a COLD war.

You have to look at the commoners as ants in an ant farm, then move forward from there...

Ya, I mean we have a huge chunk of taxpayers that think the CCP GAF about their sun monster hysteria. JFC they have an enslaved population and are extracting assets from poor nations across the world. But ya, they're going to fight the good fight. Freaking libs
