EU’s Elitists Join Forces in Japan: Where’s the Real Agenda?
The high-ranking officials of the European Union grinned like Cheshire cats during their recent appearance in Tokyo, after cozying up with Japan—**the EU’s so-called** partner in the ever-expanding Indo-Pacific region. They patted themselves on the back for taking *so-called* steps to bolster **cooperation** in defense and industry. But let’s not forget, this comes on the heels of Japan signing a **US pact with 15% tariffs on exports**. Are we sure who benefits here?
The feel-good pit stop in Tokyo was predictable, but the real **showdown** is set to unfold in Beijing, where President of the European Commission, **Ursula von der Leyen** and Council President **António Costa** have been preparing for months to celebrate 50 years of diplomatic ties with China. With an *unstable* Trump looking to squeeze them on tariffs, are they walking into a lion’s den?
Brussels Searches Desperately for New Allies
Brussels appears to be on a *frantic* hunt for new commercial partners worldwide, **desperately** trying to fill the void left by slumping American demand. Yet, they approach China—**the source of countless frustrations**—with trepidation. As the summit looms, it’s increasingly clear that Beijing’s wish is to unite against the trade war ignited by Trump. But is that in Europe’s best interests?

China’s Game Plan: Threat to European Industry
Despite early attempts to appease China, von der Leyen has increasingly adopted a combative stance, accusing Beijing of flouting international norms to smother competition from foreign businesses. Isn’t it about time Europe held China accountable for unfair bilateral economic practices? The EU keeps getting **flooded** with cheap Chinese products while our companies are **barred** from playing on a level field.
Let’s break it down:
- Chinese Electric Cars: Subsidized and able to undermine EU manufacturers.
- Raw Material Control: China’s control over critical materials is a direct threat to our defense and automotive needs.
- Unfair Trade Practices: Europe keeps being taken advantage of in this warped trade game!
But wait, there’s more! The stakes rise along with tensions over tariffs on **Chinese exports**, which will affect Europe’s consumers and industries alike. China retaliates by ramping up scrutiny on dairy imports and European pork, endangering countless jobs!
The Fight for American Attention
Amid this mounting chaos, Estonia’s Kaja Kallas—head of EU diplomacy—recently confronted Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, urging Beijing to stop supporting Russia. **Talk about a wake-up call**! Instead of budging, Yi bluntly warned that a Russian defeat would make them the US’s next target. If that happens, Trump’s focus on the Indo-Pacific will intensify, leaving Europe’s leaders scrambling.
“China cannot allow Russia to lose the war in Ukraine—it would open the floodgates for US aggression!” – Wang Yi
Such friction spells doom: a cohesive final joint statement is unlikely, and the ultimate goal now seems more about skirting around the differences than genuinely addressing them. The only potential positive outcome? A mere nod toward climate dialogue thanks to *green lobbyists* reaching out to an increasingly resistant China over environmental reform.
**Europe, it’s time to wake up!** The geopolitical landscape is changing, and we can’t let ourselves be sidelined! It’s time to take a hard stand against China if we want our industries to survive!
