EU seems less shackled by the US. Brexit helps. EU is more pragmatic now. They agree to disagree on ideology. They, however, agree, China is the economic indispensable nation in the world.

perhaps EU realized they had been duped by the US

Bravo!

 

[Paul2]

perhaps EU realized they had been duped by the US

Even if it isn't, they mutually duped each other few times over just in this year.

They can not respond with virtue, for virtue, only malice for virtue. And when they run out of malice, they get punched back themselves.

They lost any ability to solicit anything without arm twisting.

A pathological relationship.

EU-China investment deal likely this week - senior EU official

Mon, December 28, 2020, 9:18 PM GMT+7


BRUSSELS, Dec 28 (Reuters) - China and the European Union are likely to clinch an investment deal this week that would give EU companies much better access to the Chinese market and protection for their assets there, a senior EU official said on Monday.
Talks on the agreement launched in 2014, but were stuck for years as the EU complained that China was failing to make good on promises to lift curbs on EU investment, despite a pledge to open up the world’s second largest economy.
But tensions in trade relations between the United States and China may have helped change the Chinese position and bring about a deal between Beijing and Brussels, the official said.
"The deal might already be done this week," the official said, adding that the agreement, which could be struck during a video-conference on Wednesday, would be translated into legal texts over several months.

"We get much better market access and the protection of our investments in China. Better market access is something we have been working for for many years, and the Chinese have made quite a big step towards us," the official said
The negotiations have been conducted by the European Commission, which handles all external trade issues for the 27-nation bloc.
"The Commission has all but finished negotiations, which were quite successful, especially when it comes to some difficult issues like labour rights," the official said.
Ambassadors of EU governments in Brussels discussed the investment agreement on Monday, and no country had any major problems with it.
Officials said Poland suggested the EU should wait to discuss the deal with the new U.S. administration of President-elect Joe Biden, but other countries did not share this view. (Reporting by Jan Strupczewski; Editing by Jan Harvey)

Pretty soon it will be the whole world against the Five Eyes.

Officials said Poland suggested the EU should wait to discuss the deal with the new U.S. administration of President-elect Joe Biden, but other countries did not share this view.

Poland was the only continental European supporter of the ground invasion of Iraq.

I'll let the Chinese draw their own conclusions about Poles.

4 countries invaded Iraq:
US
UK
Australia
Poland

I have said for years on this forum, China's friends in Europe are Italy, the Balkans, Baltic states, Finland, and Sweden. Then neutral are Germany and France and other countries. China's adversaries are UK, Poland (who side with ally Washington). Poland's Karol Wojtyla helped destroy the USSR with the cia. Keep an eye on Poland in the EU. Poland is probably the only in Europe to want this trump/cia coup to invalidate the November elections. It is in Poland's interest to have a racist demagogue like trump in the white house.

There is no reason for Poland to be in the EU, they belong to Russia. Poland hates the EU, is militaristic, nationalistic, takes the most of EU money out of EU countries, and seems to have the Salvini racial anti-China stance.

Poland wants the EU to be the colony of Washington. Because Poland is then at the devil's table of the cia makin' the decisions. Poland is akin to a spy in the EU, like London was.

Can't wait for the Russians to retake Poland into their sphere, Washington corrupts them to the core even more than under communism. Communist Poland you could handle, for their were for international communism. Nationalist poland is a little buddy of Republican Washington. That is not going to change until the Russian tanks roll in.

I have no love of Poles because this is how Poland acts, they act like Washington. Like thugs.

Thugs gonna thug.

Nazis gonna nazi.

Poles gonna pole.

Yep, Eastern Europe was easier for European Community to handle when they were commies. It turned out for them, having them as "allies" is even worse than having them as enemies.

I'm giving u guys a heads up. Most of the time China signing somekind of deal is bogus publicity stunt. You mean to say China economy can't steam ahead without signing the deal?

Look what happened the last time China signed a deal. All u investors in the stocks better get out soon...

(Chart above S&P500 index since beginning of 2020).

 

[qwerrty]

but. but. according anglo propaganda media and think tankers, the EU will join forces with new president of amaleka, biden, to beat china up like that dumb kangaroo animal.

 

[hirobo2]

History gonna repeat itself. I believe this is what will happen, what the intended effects are for these bogus publicity stunt events:

 

[Cheehg]

It is time for EU to stand up. USA almost destroyed Euro in 2012. If EU sides with USA, it will be swollen by it. They will play balance between USA and China.

EU has to balance it out. Too much securitization and security embeddedness with the US is unhealthy. I think, on the economy front, Merkel sees that; on the security front, Macron sees that. With the US fifth column is out now, EU can actually declare independence.

Last time they danced with the US during the Arab Spring, they ended up with immigration crisis and terrorism. The US did not have a single AS related terrorism.

this news must make the superpower and the SUPAPAWA not happy. we have a superpower prophet now，where‘s our SUPAPAWA prophet？ LOL maybe they are one?
