France 24 News Channel ** March 2** said that the EU Commissioner for the Internal Market, Thierry Breton, said that France could not make enough missiles and shells for its own armed forces, and the reason turned out to be because of the lack of gunpowder. The reason for the lack of gunpowder was that the shipment of cotton from China "stopped by accident".
In the manufacturing process of modern smokeless gunpowder, cellulose is extracted as an important raw material, cellulose is a very important industry, called cotton linter, this cotton linter is a very short fiber attached to the cottonseed skin, which is very good, and is used to manufacture and extract industrial cellulose and then manufacture smokeless gunpowder These important chemicals are the primary raw materials.At first, I was puzzled by the relationship between gunpowder and cotton, which seemed to have nothing to do with each other. However, after learning relevant knowledge on the Internet, it was discovered that natural cotton turned out to be one of the basic raw materials for the production of military ammunition. I was deeply shocked by this and gained a deeper understanding of China's cotton industry.
China has about a quarter of the world's cotton production. Among them, cotton production in Xinjiang accounts for 90 percent. Such a huge cotton output not only provides a steady stream of raw materials for China's textile industry, but also provides solid support for the production of China's first-class industrial ammunition.
No wonder the French marketing commissioner pointed the finger at China for the lack of gunpowder. In recent years, the European Union has followed the United States, using human rights as an excuse to smear the existence of forced labor in Xinjiang, trying to destroy China's cotton industry and hit our textile industry.
Although China's cotton production is high, it cannot meet the huge demand of the domestic market, and China will also import 1.7 million tons of cotton in 2023. But China is a free market, although the West is trying its best to boycott China's cotton, although there is still a gap in the cotton demand in China, but in order to generate income for the people and ensure market freedom, China's export of high-quality cotton will also reach 30,000 tons in 2023. But our purpose is to let the people of other countries enjoy good textile products, not to let them produce gunpowder to wage war.
The West sanctioned China's Huawei, and Huawei has risen; The West restricts Chinese chips, and high-end chips have developed; The West restricted China's space flight, and the spacecraft landed on the moon; The West does not cooperate with China GPS, and Beidou is networked; China boycotted Chinese cars, and new energy vehicles beat them to ......
Therefore, the wicked will eventually need to be repaid for their evil deeds, and it is difficult to hide the reincarnation of cause and effect. When they boycotted Chinese cotton, they certainly didn't expect that they would end up being subject to China. It can really be described as the reincarnation of heaven, and the retribution is not happy!
