At a recent plenary session held in Strasbourg, France, the European Parliament adopted two "Commentaries" on the "EU External and Security Policy", openly declaring that "the two sides of the strait do not belong to either side", affirming that Taiwan ** is the spokesman of the Taiwanese people, and accusing China of trying to "reverse the situation in the Taiwan Strait by military means".
In the final vote of 338 members of the European Parliament on the "Common External and Security Policy," 350 to 187 votes were cast in favor of the "Common Security and Defense Policy," and the "Common Security and Defense Policy," which focused on the situation in the Taiwan Strait, by 350 to 187 votes.
The European Congress not only expanded the relations between the Taiwan Strait to include European security issues, but also put forward two proposals, the first is to urge EU countries to carry out more frequent patrols in the Taiwan Strait, and the second is to express dissatisfaction with China's obstruction of Taiwan's participation in international organizations, and at the same time hope that other countries can also support Taiwan's participation in the WHO, ICAO, etc.
European Congress. The European Parliament is a "bicameral" parliament, and it is also the only organization in the European Union composed of parliamentarians, and unlike the ordinary Chamber of Deputies, its powers are greatly limited, so its decision-making does not truly represent Europe.
The European Parliament and the European Parliament have always been hostile to China, and these two institutions are the main foreign policy towards other countries.
The two accusations against China followed on the heels of the European Parliament's concern on January 17 about China's increasing influence on the EU's "vital infrastructure" and stressing that Chinese funds would lead to "economic dependence, espionage and the danger of destruction" because Chinese companies bought 10% of Europe's maritime transport infrastructure.
European Commission.
This is not the end, the European Parliament recently passed a human rights and environmental investigation bill against Chinese suppliers, the purpose is to prevent the development of Chinese companies in the EU, excluding Chinese funds, but relative to speaking for Taiwan, this move to break the balance between China and the EU obviously hurt the heart of the EU, the larger Germany, Italy and other 10 EU member states abstained, and Sweden voted against it, and finally did not pass the bill.
In general, most of Europe's anti-China proposals have been put forward by the European Parliament, a group with close ties to the United States, and it is not surprising that China's economic decoupling from the West will reduce the EU's dependence on China.
However, the problem lies in the fact that when the European Congress asked more countries to participate in the "Taiwan Strait Tour" and Taiwan to join major international groups, the tentacles of the European Congress have completely extended beyond the European Union and, together with the United States, have formed a powerful force in the world to stop China.
The United States and the European Union.
Borrell, France's top foreign and security chief, published an article in April in which he said European navies should patrol the Taiwan Strait, signaling Europe's "freedom of navigation" in the region.
In recent years, the United States has been advocating that "the Taiwan Strait is unimpeded" and "the South China Sea is unimpeded," and it has launched provocations against China's oceans through the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea in formation of warships, in an attempt to confuse China's sovereignty and further complicate the issues in the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea.
The United States has invited Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and other five countries to join this joint patrol system, the United States and Canada have sent a fleet through the Taiwan Strait, and the Chinese navy has closely monitored it, making the West's attempt to show off its military might, show off its military might, and show off its military might completely failed.
U.S. Navy Seat Ship.
The United States, realizing that it is not strong enough, wants to prove its "freedom of navigation" by sending more ships to the Taiwan Strait, and it is clear that the European Union has responded positively to this.
In fact, in recent years, France and Germany have been looking for an opportunity to intervene in the Asia-Pacific pattern and reproduce the strength of the European hegemony in those years; Britain, France, and Australia have made military exercises with Japan and Australia so that Britain and France can send fleets to the Asia-Pacific region, and the "free navigation" of the Taiwan Strait is also in line with the interest and strategy of the EU powers, so it can be predicted that more European warships will be stationed in the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait.
This is the EU's strategic need to face the Eurasian region externally. From the perspective of Sino-EU relations, on December 7 this year, the 24th summit of China and the European Union held a summit meeting in Beijing, and European Commission President Charles Michel and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen were both present and chaired, which was also the first time that the two countries brought their differences to the table.
Von der Leyen. Europe has been trying to narrow the ** deficit between China and Europe on the route of "de-risking", but it does not want to completely break away from China, so this summit ended in failure.
Compared with the United States' control over China and the United States, Europe still has a long way to go, so the economic and trade relations between China and Europe have not changed much, but whether it is economic decoupling or cruising, as long as Taiwan is not involved, the relationship between China and the United States will become more and more dangerous, because the United States continues to cross China's bottom line, and the Taiwan Strait issue makes the relationship between China and the United States more and more dangerous.
Moreover, the relationship between Russia and Ukraine has not been resolved, and there is no need for them to run to the Asia-Pacific region.
