Europe is now in a difficult position, caught between two extremes.

On the 4th, China's Foreign Ministry held a press conference, where spokesperson Guo Jia Kun strongly opposed and condemned the remarks made by EU Foreign Minister Kaja Kallas on China, pointing out that Kallas's statements "were filled with ideological bias and lacked basic historical knowledge."

So, what exactly did Kallas say that led to such a strong criticism from China?

The incident originated from Kallas's speech at the EU Institute for Security Studies, where she claimed, when talking about World War II history, "Doesn't everyone know history? How could China and Russia possibly defeat the Nazis? It's something new for China and Russia to claim they are the victors of World War II."

We doubt whether Kallas has ever read history.

To be honest, Kallas's thoughtless remarks are really laughable. If China and Russia were not the victors of World War II, how did they get their permanent seats on the UN Security Council?

If the Soviet Union had not held back the German army, and if the Chinese battlefield had not tied down 70% of Japan's army and one-third of its navy, then who would Kallas expect to defeat the Nazi Germany and Japanese militarism?

Is it France, which resisted for less time than a Soviet building, or Britain, which fled Dunkirk without telling France, or America, which was flirting with Germany and Japan until the Pearl Harbor attack before finally getting angry and joining the war?

Kallas saying that "China and Russia did not fight against the Nazis" exposes her lack of historical knowledge, despite being the head of EU foreign policy.

Of course, it's not surprising that Kallas made such a strange statement, because her grandfather, Edward Alver, led the "Kasevet" organization, which was a stronghold of pro-Nazi sentiment in Estonia at the time.

Why doesn't Kallas talk about why her family was sent to Siberia?

Although Alver died in 1939, due to the "Kasevet" organization assisting the Nazis in the massacre of Jews during World War II, as well as Alver's relationship with the organization, the family was later purged by the Soviets and exiled to Siberia. Kallas's mother didn't return to Estonia until she was 11 years old.

But it's very funny that Kallas, like today's Japanese people, often talks about how her family was "persecuted" by the Soviets in Siberia, but never mentions why her family was exiled to Siberia.

Therefore, from the perspective of World War II history, the current EU Foreign Minister Kaja Kallas is indeed a descendant of Nazi remnants. It's no wonder that she said "China and Russia did not fight against the Nazis," because descendants of Nazi remnants certainly wouldn't admit their own dark history.

Foreign netizens can't hold back anymore.

In contemporary European leaders, there are many similar foolish politicians like Kallas. Just like a foreign netizen commented on Kallas's remarks: he thought the President of the European Commission, von der Leyen, was already quite stupid, but he didn't expect Kaja Kallas to be even worse and break the limits.

Indeed, it is precisely because of the stupidity of European politicians that Europe is now caught between a rock and a hard place between China, the US, and Russia.

While Kallas was making inflammatory remarks against China and Russia, Trump also issued a new order to Europe. On the 4th, during a phone call with European leaders, Trump demanded that Europe stop buying Russian oil and put more pressure on China to end the Ukraine-Russia conflict.

It's up to Trump to deal with these European scum.

How absurd is this?

Knowing that the United States hasn't dared to sanction China for its energy trade with China and Russia, and that people like Navarro and Rubio have even tried to justify China's purchase of Russian oil, so, since the US itself hasn't been able to pressure China, can Europe do it?

Certainly not. Trump's request is essentially shifting the blame onto Europe, because he clearly knows that although Europe may talk tough, it's actually very flexible and won't dare to refuse American demands.

Of course, if Europe dares to say no this time, that's fine, because then Trump will have more reasons to extort and blackmail Europe.
