China is an authoritarian ethnostate with mock capitalism experiments.

If you want to climb into Xi Jinpeng's garden where he has absolute uncontested unilateral control for life, well, be warned.

I want to climb nothing.

I said that the EU should have normal relations with China. It has no reason to inherit the US anxiety about China being a contender in the world stage.

Trade with it normally, do trade deals where it makes sense, use reciprocity and protectionism where it fits.

This should be pretty uncontroversial.

This is extremely controversial. Where do you draw the line? Ev's are okay, cause the climate... Oh, wait, our own car industry dies? It's okay competition! Oh wait... They have no min wage or safety standards? Oh shit, where'd our auto industry go...? Oh, guess that didn't make sense... Lets tarrif...

And on and on and on, with every industry.
