Lithuania should talk to China from a position of strength, Lithuanian Foreign Minister said:

"You cannot talk to China from the position of a weak and dependent player. We have already done this with Russia. Europe forms the foundations of world geopolitics from a position of strength and risk reduction,” Lithuanian Foreign Minister Landsbergis at a meeting of EU foreign ministers.

It is more like money laundering. Vingroup would further invest $2.5 billion to this failed project and EV. In addition, Vinfast also secured a SPAC with Hong Kong based Black Spade Acquisition to list on NYSE with a value of $27 billion. Basically, after the listing, Vingroup and whoever behind the money laundering would dump all Vinfast shares as fast as possible. Vinfast would worth little to nothing within 2-3 years depending on how quickly those people dispose their assets.

I don't know, but I'm glad that anti-China propaganda is not yet popular in my home country Bulgaria. So far I have not heard a single Bulgarian politician, not even from the puppet Western parties, speaking against China. In general, in Bulgaria, in my personal observation, the attitude towards China has always been positive. I do not know whether you know that Bulgaria was the second country in the world after the USSR to recognise the People's Republic of China on 03.10.1949.

Architect of Biden’s China policy to resign​

US Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman is set to retire, the State Department said on Friday. The 73-year-old official was heavily involved in devising Washington’s current strategy toward China and the broader Asia-Pacific, where it seeks to challenge Beijing on several fronts.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken hailed Sherman’s lengthy career as a diplomat in a statement announcing her resignation, saying she has “helped lead our engagement in the Indo-Pacific, the region where the history of the 21st century will be written.”
“She has deepened our bonds with our friends around the world, especially with the Republic of Korea, Japan, and the European Union. She has overseen our efforts to strengthen the [State] Department’s capabilities to manage our relationship with the People’s Republic of China, and built greater convergence with allies and partners,”
he added.
In an internal memo sent out to department staffers, Sherman stated that “Diplomacy is not for the faint of heart,” urging colleagues to “have courage” and to use their power “for good.” She said her retirement would be effective at the end of next month.

With a career spanning more than three decades, several presidents and five separate secretaries of state, Sherman has been involved in a long list of important foreign policy decisions over the years. As Blinken’s deputy, her focus has largely been set on China, often acting as an official spokesperson to explain the US strategy toward the People’s Republic.
In comments to lawmakers earlier this year, Sherman warned that China is “the only competitor with the intent and means to reshape the international order,” accusing Beijing of “provocations in the South China Sea,” human rights abuses, “economic coercion,” and “threatening behavior against Taiwan,” which China considers to be part of its sovereign territory.
Since President Joe Biden took office in 2021, US relations with China have plumbed new depths. Over the last two years, the Pentagon has ordered near-constant transits of the disputed Taiwan Strait by US warships, while a visit to Taipei by then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in 2022 triggered unprecedented Chinese military drills in the airspace and waters around the island. It carried out additional war games following a trip to the US by Taiwan’s leader earlier this year.

However, as Sherman prepares to leave the State Department for good, there appear to be signs of renewed diplomacy with China. Earlier this week, White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan held an unannounced round of talks with a senior Chinese Foreign Ministry official, the highest-level engagement between the two nations since Biden’s meeting with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, last November.

Other than some Viet keyboard warriors saying how Vinfast was going to make their country the new Japan and eat China's lunch in EV's, I've never even seen or heard of this company anywhere.

Well bro within 5 years when I travel to China for a business trip, she will ask me to buy her a Huawei MATE series phone. ;) I can see it coming and she doesn't need to ask me cause I'll buy one for her so she can detoxify her Apple addiction....lol
If it performs better than an iPhone with better chips and what not, I cannot help but say I would want one too along with my family because we are getting tired of using the same crap all year long. Also by then, China will have fully taken the world by storm and will have hopefully put the USA in its place.

Yesterday the news broadcasts here in Europe broke this news. The bureaucrats in Brussels really think we are idiots, presenting these unrealistic figures on Ukrainian casualties in order to continue aid to Ukraine:

Ukraine lost fewer than 15,000 troops, EU countries’ intelligence says

Ukraine’s armed forces, gearing up to retake the eastern city of Bakhmut this spring, have altogether lost fewer than 15,000 troops since the Russian invasion began last February, according to excerpts of an internal EU memo seen by EURACTIV.

Since the start of Russia’s war in Ukraine, very few numbers related to personnel and equipment losses on the Ukrainian side have been made publicly available, with Kyiv and its Western allies reluctant to reveal any critical information to Russia.

In November, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen came under fire for publishing and then unpublishing a video containing what appeared then to be a very high estimate of 100,000 killed Ukrainian military officers, prompting a backlash from Kyiv.

Russian losses are higher than Ukrainians

In what appears to be one of the first semi-official estimates that made its way to the West, an internal document in the hands of the EU diplomatic service, seen by EURACTIV, put the losses of Ukraine’s armed forces at 13,000 personnel killed during combat, with an additional 35,000 wounded in action.

The document also noted that according to US estimates, Kyiv has lost 17,500 personnel killed in action, and a total of 124,000 to 131,000 people disabled, whether from wounds, death or disappearance, or other reason.

Still, the document, based on the Ukrainian communication to member states, media reports, and intelligence leaks, assessed that the Ukrainian losses are lower than the US estimates.

The internal memo seen by EURACTIV said Ukrainian officials asses that 185,000 Russians were killed during the course of the war and 555,000 were wounded.

Those stupid b!tches think everyone is a fu@king idiot. Well just because the average American can’t find Ukraine in a world map (which is likely given how they are trying to educated kindergarten children in a frighten drag nowadays) well if Russia finally does shove a hypersonic missile up Brussels arse, will they finally start thinking again or will they still drink the how EU is a garden and the rest of the world is a jungle cool aid. Just because the Globalist think they are in control doesn’t me they really are I mean the UKs are coming is contracting right now while that HK rioters are still singing Prince Charles praises while even the average Brit (who have more brains the Nathan law for crying out loud) knows that the coronation cost of 250 million is complete and utter bullsh!t

Quite a few Biden officials have been resigning in the last several months.

If they were managers in Huawei Ren Zhengfei would've fired their asses two years ago. Luckily those are cushy government jobs. I think that I could replace Blinken or Sullivan and do nothing at my job except surf Tiktok and look for crappy Christmas lights on Temu and somehow can do less damage than they currently are doing.

Meanwhile they can enjoy their double-digit food inflation...

Rising food prices a priority concern for UK – Bloomberg​

Grocery inflation surged above 19% in March, according to data from the Bank of England

Rising grocery prices in the UK have replaced energy as the main inflationary concern for the Bank of England (BoE), Bloomberg reported on Thursday, after the bank made a 12th consecutive hike to the base interest rate.

Although energy prices have slightly declined, British families are facing a tight squeeze on their finances due to double-digit inflation. Low- and middle-income families are being hit the hardest, given that they spend the bulk of their income on essentials and are now seeing a dramatic increase in their shopping bills.

Food inflation has been “particularly high,” reaching 19.1% in March, according to the BoE. Over the past year, grocery price growth in the UK has been at its highest level since records began. It has now replaced energy costs as the most important financial issue for the public, the Bloomberg article states.

“We are acutely aware of how difficult this rise in food prices is for people, especially for those on lower incomes,” Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey told reporters on Thursday.

He said he expects food price inflation to start slowing down soon but admits that it is taking “longer than we previously thought.”

Meanwhile, economists say it has become difficult to gauge where prices will go at a time of major supply disruptions caused by the conflict in Ukraine in “today’s modern, interconnected world.” This has meant the BoE lacks past experience for making food price forecasts, according to Bloomberg.

“The sustained higher price level represents a long-term cost for households and businesses, and this is one driver of subdued economic activity over the forecast horizon,” the BoE’s recent Monetary Policy Report said.

According to Bloomberg, even with lower energy costs, it will take time for food producers, such as farmers, who often buy key supplies like fertilizers in advance, to adjust prices and make their goods more affordable to consumers.
Good, quite frankly the USA needs to head down the V for Vendetta path as quickly as possible just so that the nation can finally crumple in princes Charles lifetime so that in the end, we can finally say that God did save the queen, from having to see the nation fall in her sons life time

Geee, when you have an open supporter of the WEF in Princes Charles now king, honestly what did people expect, the stupid b@st@rd is going forward with a green agenda of destroying the UK and there nothing anyone in the British can do about, because if one looks at how often the leadership have changed in the last few years after brexit, well is their anyone in the British leadership that is not a complete elitist retard that doesn’t have an ounce of common sense. I mean don’t they know that if the nation does get nuked by Russia (via the screwing around they do) that much of the global south would probably cheer give that they have never apologized for their colonial ways and have been longing for some seriously painful comeback. I mean Anglos in general are snow flakes they have never got that well deserved punch in the face
