The Americans are "good" at reflecting by asking "how did we lose China",

Now they are asking "how did we lose Russia", soon they will ask "how did we lose the world". They always "reflect" but never learn.

The lesson is simple, any hegemon remains on top at the cost of everybody else, therefor losing everybody is just a matter of time. This is why I always object the idea of China being the next US which is a curse.

We don't feel much pity here in Western Europe too. Sad for the British people who didn't vote for the conservatives. Others are reaping the consequences of their votes. The UK has been a problem for everyone except the Americans in the last few years.

What do you mean? The UK Labour party is exactly the same thing. The descent into American servitude started with Tony Blair. In 20 years the UK has been transformed into a shitty poorer version of the US.

That awkward smile on the White House spokesman's face looks like a grown up version of these kiddos

According to wiki, EDF owns 80% of Sizewell C and CGN owns 20%. So not only is CGN booted out, so is EDF cut off 30%.

It means control will now be shared 50-50 between the UK government and the French energy giant EDF, who intend to build the plant.

From the surface it looks like aiming at China alone, but deep inside, it is against any foreigner having a controlling share.

Well the Brit’s having driving war around the globe for centuries without a single apology and only just recently, they have become more and more like Nazis hiding atrocities under the rug. The UK, especially its suffer a massive defeat, one that the media cannot hide in order to force the Uk to stop their living in the colonial days mind set. Especially what the UK has done to China, China has some serious debt that the UK needs to repay for the whole Opium bullshit and the UK cannot run away this time and the emphasis is that the UK must suffer the consequences otherwise, well considering Russia also has a bone to grind with them for the whole Ukraine mess, I seriously wouldn’t want to be living in the UK in the near future and anyone with sense should get out of that nation as soon as possible

Initially, they thought they could get some traction. However, the protests are losing stem too fast. Now, they just aim at the Westerners and brainwash them and divert attention of their own problems. But they need to tone it down a bit if protests just stop completely as MSM might have overplayed the hype.

Anyone read the spectator article on China's involvement in the Ukraine war? I didn't post it in the war thread as it's political.

Apparently China have been mediating to try and stop NATO escalating the conflict, such as the Polish MiG-29 deal. If true, I would be pretty disappointed, getting involved in this war is not in China's interests.

I do think the Polish example is not true, the reason America backed down is Russia pretty much threatened war with America if they sent them. No reason to think China had anything to do with it.

Story about Xi stopping US from sending MiGs come out a few days ago.

Then a couple days later an former US admiral on an Bloomberg op-ed claims the US is revisiting MiG-29s, F-16s, Patriot Systems, and an Israsli Iron Dome to Ukraine.

Now CNN is saying the US officials may be sending patriots systems to Ukraine.

If we soon hear about MiG-29s being send to Ukraine then this dubious article about negotiations from China is going to get even more suspicious on the timing.
