Merkel says tough words at Davos, China becomes a world power, the US is just a dying struggle!
Yesterday, Merkel said at the Davos Forum: "China has already become a world power with its strategic vision. The United States' global position is being challenged, and Washington's response is to completely reshape its foreign and security policies."
[Clever] Merkel's words reveal the awkward reality of American hegemony, and it's also a silent betrayal by Europe towards the US! After WWII, the US tied Europe through the Marshall Plan, but now it treats its allies as pawns, imposing tariffs and forcing Europe to take sides, even German companies can't continue without Chinese rare earths. China has been strategically laying out cooperation, Merkel rushed to visit China to talk about win-win cooperation. In contrast, the so-called US foreign and security reshaping is just a new package of withdrawing from groups, breaking agreements, and commercializing alliances. On one hand, it stirs up trouble with "Gold Dome," and on the other hand, it uses tariff sticks to make allies pay. The once unquestioning Europe has long awakened, and the US's reshaping is just a dying struggle before the decline of its hegemony, while China's rise is the inevitable answer to the world's multipolarity!
