    As a Dutch guy it’s very nice to see our economy being threatened by the maniacal politics of our so called biggest ally. Sadly the European elite seems too stupid to realize this.

      They do, the ASML CEO fought back against the sanctions and said if they go through, China will develop the technology themselves and lose all their business

      The Dutch president overrided him and went ahead with the sanctions anyways

    Lmao everything the sneaky Chinese does is always “quiet”

    They’ve openly said this and like, literally everything else they do loud and proud, just that nobody ever listens and on the rare chance they do, never trusts them

      I do find it hilarious how China literally publishes 5 year plans where they outline exactly what they plan to do, and then the west acts like China is this big inscrutable mystery. 😂
