Exclusive | EU agrees ‘in principle’ to an investment agreement with China


The European Union has agreed “in principle” to an investment agreement with China, a high-level diplomatic source in Brussels told the South China Morning Post on Thursday, in what would be a big win for Beijing in the face of tattered relations with the US.

The EU’s two most influential leaders, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron, are understood to be in agreement for the deal to go ahead, a second source briefed on the negotiation said.

Germany, which currently holds the presidency of the EU Council, announced that the investment agreement with China would be discussed among the 27 countries’ representatives to the bloc on Friday.
The politically symbolic move between China and the EU comes just a month before Joe Biden will become the US president, dealing a blow to his hope of reviving the transatlantic partnership in a bid to take on China’s growing assertiveness.


The European Commission, the executive arm of the EU that is in charge of trade talks, has secured breakthroughs as China agrees to open up its market in multiple sectors for EU businesses, the sources said.
China is understood to have made concessions on sectors like financial services, manufacturing and real estate.

In return, China secured the EU’s agreement to open up the renewable energy sector for Chinese investment, a clause that has drawn opposition from Eastern European member states including Poland and Lithuania, which rely on US support to deter the threat from Russia, the source said

eu need support to cum back uk

fact: usa start a war with iraq, arfghan

did china start a war with any country?

you know how many wars US started or financially backed , just because want to take over their natural resources or to go forward with their agenda?
you know how the funded the al qaeda?
they re responsible for the deaths of millions or billions of people directly or indirectly
what have russia and china done to be called this way?
oh shouldnt ask you because you are most probably got brainwashed , communist is bad etc etc. democracy is the king
democracy is only a monarchy in disguise

many more bro
korea
vietnam
syria
yemen
egypt
and this is only 20% of the list

the country that are anti human now is US. they are trying as much as they can to stop the moving forward of humanity so that they can remain the top place.

1) try as much as possible to stop china from space exploration, result ? china has their own gps beidou, moon exploration, mars exploration, 2021 will be their space station launching year. chang er 5 moon soil extract completed just yesterday.

2) try as hard as possible to stop china in getting expanding 5g, asking their allies to not use china 5g. result ? china dont even care, going for their 6g road already.

3) bringing wars in middle east and do nothing on africa poverty. once china step in then start bitching about debt trap because they think africans deserved to be exploited by colonization. you cant help those nikas.

4) limiting the chip exploration by stopping selling of euv to china and sanctioning SMIC. result ? this 1 not so fast, chip development and EUV takes time, but they will get there eventually.

5) other future goals of china, quantum computing, deep sea exploration, artificial sun, AI robotics.

we malaysian ? we dont give a fark about those, because we are too busy discussing school shoes color, halal or not, bmf, water selangor, all those useless topic
