Euro heads of state are having to kiss Xi’s derriere, making “head of state” phone calls, praising China, and begging for medical equipment, drugs and supplies. Germany, Spain, Italy, France, etc. Meanwhile, Trump isn’t willing to kiss Xi’s ass. No help from China for US, we will rally our own industry and people to meet our demand. Will the Euros end up a colony of China, isolating us, or will we all learn a lesson from this fiasco?
I always figured it would be tech that finally brought us around, and Trump seemed to be pushing back against Huwei and other Chinese tech. Instead, it looks like medical tech, supplies and pharma are our tripwire. Of course, a year from now, a lot of folks will forget. When will people realize that being dependent on China for any necessity has a huge down side?
