In the minds of some Western political scepters, they are still a nobleman and a beacon of civilization; their status and prosperous economy of developed countries are manifestations of the superiority of the so-called "free and democratic" system; but the Russian-Ukrainian conflict actually revealed a reality that embarrasses them: these so-called prosperity and development are inseparable from emerging markets such as China and Russia and developing countries such as .
According to TASS , Yanis Varoufakis, former Greek Finance Minister, said in an interview with German NTV TV recently: Soaring energy prices have triggered the European economic crisis, and the economic collapse of the EU is basically a foregone conclusion. Europe is experiencing a dramatic " de-industrialization "; he specifically named Germany, believing that the economic model based on Russia's cheap energy and China's huge market is collapsing.
He also accused the EU of "lack of internal unity and empty reputation", and there are unmediated conflicts between member states on many issues such as immigration, new energy, and banking systems.
Finally, he focused his firepower on Germany, accusing Germany of its 200 billion euro subsidy plan as a "double standard", and criticizing German Chancellor Scholz as a "political dwarf" and former Prime Minister Merkel "wasted too many political assets."
If Greece had said these words eighty years ago, it would have probably crossed the border line. However, Germany is like a young wife, doing its best to support the entire Europe, while being criticized and criticized by other countries. Just like this cowardly, the coffin boards of the Junker nobles had already creaked back then.
But Valufakis has a very good reminder: Germany's original economic model is collapsing. In addition to Valofakis, in addition to Valfakis, there is also Alfred Kammer, chairman of the European Department of the International Monetary Foundation ; he reminded that European inflation will further expand and the harm to the European economy will become increasingly serious. According to his estimate, the economic growth rate of euro zone in 2022 will dip from 3.2% to 0.6%.
Originally, Germany chose a relatively comfortable economic path, relying on cheap Russian energy and a strong Chinese market. This model helped Germany become the leader of the European economy, making France and Italy quite jealous.
However, as we all know, Germany has taken the initiative to increase the difficulty of itself, and it has almost jumped from a "novice" or "ordinary" difficulty to a "difficulty" or "hell" mode - the Scholz government, which was swept by the Green Party, succumbed to the pressure of the EU and cooperated to cut off Russia's cheap energy.
China and Russia were originally double pillars, but Germany smashed one with one hammer, and now someone shouted that the other was smashed. Recently, German Chancellor Scholz sent a series of signals opposing the so-called "decoupling from China", and it can be seen that he has not yet reached the point of "no cure". But the problem is that, as an important part of the ruling coalition, the Green Party can be said to be a "white left-wing demon" and hopes to fully comply with Washington's diplomatic orders without reservation.
The whole world knows the importance of China! According to the report of World Bank , China has been a major contributor to world economic growth over the past 10 years, and even the " G7 " cannot catch up with China; any country that insists on starting from its own interests will choose to deepen economic and trade cooperation. Whether it is Southeast Asian countries, or countries such as Saudi , Iran , etc., they are all choosing to work with China to maintain the stability of the international market and supply chain.
The leaders or political sticks of some European countries have almost saved the future and destiny of their own country for the sake of small profits in front of them; if it is just an individual phenomenon, it would be nothing, after all, there are all kinds of birds in the forest. But many European countries have such commonalities, so we only have one reason to explain: What about this country? Fixed body question!
