It also means that it becomes both China and Russia's interest in permanently neutralizing NATO and the end of the western political-economic order.

That was always the plan. It's just that the overt application of force is now on the table.
0.1 billion dollars seems like an easily manipulable number, maybe India was trying to send a signal.
Our favourite Indian commentator explains how this news is bad for India since China is an even bigger threat to India now.

It's almost as if the gang that NATO formed didn't end up intimidating these countries into submission but caused them to form a rival gang of thier own! Isn't that crazy??!!

He was shocked at the fact that they were monitoring his emails, but he didn't want to go there, because these are the good guys.

If the message makes no sense to you, you are not the intended audience.
Stinky Stiltenberg is just an American sock puppet trying to convince the EU they need to turn themselves into a suicide bomber to attack China for America Daddy so America Daddy doesn’t loose when it chooses to start a war against China.
The irony is that a lot of the inbred idiots in charge of European countries will unironically eat this bullshit up because their minds are still stuck in the increasingly distant past where all Europeans needed to do against the coloureds is to convince parliament to order the fleet to the dispatched. Most of them are so far behind the times they still think rice paddies and plastic toys when anyone says ‘China’, so for them, the absolute worst think that can happen from going to war in Asia against China is loosing a few of the ships they sent. But they can call time any time they want and that’s it, war over, no blowback at all other than bruised egos and a little embarrassment. No no, those backwards Chinese couldn’t possibly take the war back to the European garden!
Stoltenberg's childish tantrums are best ignored. Everyone knows he's just an American stooge and lobbyist with little actual power.
The China-Europe relationship is complicated. Europe's intel agencies and militaries (which are closely integrated within Nato i.e. US intel/military structure) want a tougher stance on China while the business community want cooperation with China. Europe is still trying to find the appropriate balance between those two forces, but the status quo benefits China because the balance of economic/tech/military power shifts in China's favor every year. So China will continue trying to pursue good relationship with Europe.

This. I made a post recently about NATO shifting to the Pacific just a few days ago and we can see it now. No matter what China does or doesn't do NATO will find an excuse to shift towards the Pacific. I also stated the US knows that it won't be able to confront China alone and that time is not on its side so it will forge voltron alliances to confront China. Honestly, the west will rather the entire world burn than share the world with a non white power. Colonialism is just too much in their DNA, they want to dominate everybody. Terrifying.
But, they have a gazillion-strong nominal GDP, majestic standards of living, etc, and they could magically generate 500 new bridges like this one if they wanted, it doesn't matter. They are always the best.
But, they are DeMoCrAcY and have FrEedOm, so they must follow all the rights of "voting", procedures, and environmental studies, first, so it will take some time. It doesn't matter that the indirect economic damage is $15 million per day and 8000 jobs.
That's why they also didn't renew this bridge in 50 years. And this is why they can't clear out this wreckage in 50 days already. Because this is true infrastructure, not the paper one like in Chyna, it is harder to replace.
No, let's stop joking, realistically, imagine this humiliation happening in China, you would have those "intellectuals" at Brookings, and Hoover, already using it as an example of a corrupt state and inefficient regime, and those double-digit IQ channels like Serpentza making a dozen YouTube videos with brain-dead thumbnails.
Whereas China would have already removed the wreckage in 48 hours and started building a new bridge in a week, built it by 2025 probably, and paid it hundreds of times cheaper, due to way more developed construction and industrial sectors.
Or China simply wouldn't have allowed that ancient kind of bridge to operate for 50 years, in the first place and would've renovated it already 20 times by now (or enforced it enough so it wouldn't collapse from one ship colliding with it, as it is one of the most important national bridges).
