Xi offers Europe alternative to Trump’s Board of Peace
The Telegraph ^ | 27 January 2026 | Memphis Barker

Posted on 01/27/2026 10:10:25 AM PST by MinorityRepublican

Xi Jinping has offered Europe new trade partnerships and promised to uphold the “values” of the United Nations. The move is an apparent attempt to capitalise on the continent’s growing rift with the United States.

On Tuesday, Sir Keir Starmer became the latest leader to travel to Beijing after Mark Carney and Petteri Orpo, the prime ministers of Canada and Finland.

In a meeting with Mr Orpo on Tuesday, the Chinese president said China and Europe were “partners, not adversaries” and invited Finnish companies to “swim in the vast ocean of the Chinese market”.

He also appeared to snub Donald Trump’s Board of Peace, a body set up to rival the United Nations, whose members so far include Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar.

According to Xinhua, the state news service, he said China was ready to work with Finland to “uphold the international system with the United Nations at its core”. He added that major countries should “observe the rule of law, pursue co-operation and uphold integrity”.

While Mr Xi often extols such principles in public, he has sought to position China as a responsible trading partner and global power at the same time as Mr Trump pursues a more belligerent, norm-shredding approach to international diplomacy.

Beijing is ready to work more closely with Britain, the foreign ministry said on Tuesday as Sir Keir arrived for a four-day visit with a delegation from 50 companies and institutions.

On Monday, The Telegraph revealed that Chinese spies had hacked phones in No 10 – the latest in a series of espionage scandals that have provoked bipartisan warnings against deepening Britain’s reliance on China.

What ‘vast Chinese market’?

Didn’t they learn the lesson falling for that nonsense in the past few centuries?

Chairman Xi’s plans for the USA, Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, Greenland etc., are all being uncovered, unfunded (by USAID) and unraveled by President Trump. This is likely the real reason why Gen. Zhang Youxia is on the outs. Not to mention how badly they lost face in Venezuela.

This huge story seems to be receiving very little attention from the managed ‘operation mockingbird’ Marxist MSM.

For a communist, there’s no problem that can’t be solved by a few million executions. Why doesn’t the west understand that?

Ha! Carney folded like a lawn chair when Trump threatened him. Queer Starmer just went there for gay sex.

I do business with a number of European companies and people. To a person, they all believe it’s the USA committing suicide with Trump in the lead, and that Europe has to make its own commercial and military arrangements now.

Europe didn’t pick this fight. We did.
