I read it as EU and UK are trying 创造条件, trying to roll back the muh GeNoCiDe narrative. Europes reeks of desperation.

It does feel a bit that way, if they're just going to invite him for mudslinging he wouldn't even go in the first place.
If it goes down that way wouldn't this be Red Wedding level top 10 anime betrayal of all time?
It is possible, classic Western political tactic when unable to rule well domestically... distract with foreign affair issues
I am also aware that many enemies of China are too stupid to get the message that China is not to be messed with. Some had to learn that the hard way: India in 1962, India again in 2020, Vietnam in 1979-1988.
The problem with the US right now, is that when they finally learn their lesson the hard way, it's through nuclear Armageddon. No one who survives it would be in any mood to be laughing at the stupidity of America.
The better way forward for now, is for China to give a formal warning to the US and friends. Do it in press conferences, get the highest ranking military official to issue that warning. That China is fully capable of giving back nuclear annihilation to any enemy who dares attacks China with nukes of any size. Hint that China already has plenty of warheads and delivery vehicles for the job. Then end the warning with: "This is not a bluff". It needs to be official, and it needs to be firm. If those idiot leaders in the US still don't believe it, at least their generals and intelligence people would have think about it, and attempt to stop the madness.
I agree with a formal warning, but not through words alone. Otherwise they'll dismiss it as "China is just a paper tiger going back to North Korea style rhetorical aggression". No, it has to be accompanied by physical escalation.
Plenty of legal opportunities to do this like next time their destroyers do a "FON" exercise just shadow them closely (<1 km) with coast guard and naval ships, light them up with gun (but not missile) radar, spam them with comms telling them to gtfo. If they approach within 12 nm of a Chinese island, physically remove them by ramming. If they sink, they sink, their problem. This shows that China doesn't fuck around with the legal rights it is entitled to, yet keeps escalation level below a shooting war.
That, plus rhetoric, works. Rhetoric alone is easily dismissed or twisted.

If you think moderating this forum was a thankless enough chore, trying to moderator those animals will turn you suicidal or homicidal, or maybe both. You couldn’t pay me enough to do for such a job.
Doesn't China already challenge FON consistently? We don't know what goes down in most of these interactions. There's stories of PLA using EW on US and allies. See the following:
Also, if a story does leak out usually the Americans will just frame it as PLAAF pilots or navy being "aggressive" regardless of what actually happened.
Anyway, I think this FON thing is too normalize and routine. Americans need something more visceral since their senses seem to be dull. Maybe something like China threatening North Korean style and actually doing a "sea of enveloping flames" near Guam with DF-21s or DF-26s. But I also think they should save something like that during a time of major escalation.

Repeat after me:
The American People are not afraid of Chinese Imperialism, Chinese Imperialism is afraid of American people!
Anglo's unite and take down Chinese Imperialism and Russian Revisionism！
Smash in the dog skull of anyone who opposes neoliberalism!
I think we gotta change a leader or side if we want to start a cultural revolution in US. The cuckservatives are all about LARPing, we need a leader that will energize the Antifas.
