US media: "Carneyism" has awakened the UK, and Starmer's visit to China has frustrated the US!
On January 23, The New York Times published an article: "The newly emerged 'Carneyism' may currently only serve as a bit of eye medicine for Trump, but it seems to have inspired the UK. The UK's political elite are very fearful of conducting diplomacy like Carney, and their economic integration with Europe and military reliance on NATO and the US have left them with a severely weakened basic governing capability. However, if the UK really expects to achieve industrial revitalization, China appears to be the most practical choice for the UK. The UK is likely to return to the old maxim — we have no eternal allies, nor permanent enemies, we only have eternal and lasting interests! Starmer's plan to visit China may disappoint the US, everything is happening..."
[Cunning] "Carneyism" is causing trouble for the US, but it has made the UK reveal its long-kept interest maxim! The diplomatic wisdom of former Prime Minister Palmerston has been completely forgotten by British politicians. After Brexit, they have been obediently tied to the US's war chariot, stumbling in their attempts to integrate with Europe, and their governing capacity has shrunk to the point where even industrial revitalization requires compensation. They are afraid of learning from Carney to say no to the US, yet they are envious of the cooperative benefits from China. Starmer's visit to China is merely a desperate choice after being awakened by reality. From following the US to block Huawei to seeking talks with China on trade, from delaying embassy approvals to proactively relaxing restrictions, the UK's performance of changing faces is smooth. What is this so-called diplomatic awakening? It's nothing more than a desperate calculation of interests. No matter how stubborn Trump is, he can't stop the UK from betraying its US alliance for a few coins. This so-called pragmatism is ultimately forced by the need to survive!
