On May 5th, French President Emmanuel Macron criticized Europe's reliance on the United States and China in the fields of science, technology, and space research at the "Choose European Science" event held at the Sorbonne University in Paris.
Macron said, "We sometimes fail because it is too comfortable to move forward hand-in-hand with Americans. Many Europeans believe that they will never abandon us, as if we were part of them. But this is not true. Every time we show dependence, we create a vassal relationship."
Europe is not dependent on China in the same way it is on the U.S. Would Europe dare to impose high tariffs on American electric vehicles?
