This woman is back to talking big again. Recently, the President of the European Union, Ursula von der Leyen, has once again made tough statements, saying that if negotiations with China don't go well, she will use all available means. This is just empty talk.
China has legally upgraded its measures for rare earth exports, and the EU has become furious. It's worth noting that over 90% of the rare earth magnets in the EU come from China, and multiple fields such as the automotive industry and national defense are affected.
But her so-called "using means" is just bluffing. The EU tries to intimidate with the "Anti-Coercion Instrument Act," but this is just a paper tiger. Europe has previously suffered from energy dependence, and now it doesn't want to face the reality of relying on Chinese rare earths. China reasonably manages its own resources, but she pretends to be the victim. Besides making empty speeches, what real abilities does she have?
If you don't care about your dignity, don't blame me for being unkind. Calling you "old lady" is already the greatest respect I can give you.
