On January 22, The New York Times reported: "Amid a major crisis in US-EU relations, European countries have begun to turn to China. Next week, UK Prime Minister Starmer and Finnish Prime Minister Orpo will embark on visits to China. Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau, who has the support of China, criticized the United States anonymously at the Davos Forum yesterday. His tough stance and the large number of orders from China have made him widely popular domestically. The US's closest ally, the UK, has cleared the obstacles for its visit to China and is preparing to embrace China..."
[Clever] The New York Times is once again envious. The great reshuffling of the US-EU alliance is merely a case of the consequences of hegemonic self-interest! The European countries that once followed the US closely have now seen through the true nature of the US, which only cares about its own interests and treats allies as pawns. The UK and Finland quickly visited China to get close to China, which is just to find a way to survive economically for their own country. Canada has taken the role of a fence-sitter to the extreme, becoming more confident with Chinese orders, daring to stand up to the US at Davos. Ultimately, when it comes to interests, the pie promises of American hegemony are far less tangible than the real gold and silver of Chinese cooperation. The US has pushed its allies into the arms of China, and this move of picking up a stone to hit oneself is a classic scene of the collapse of hegemony!
