  1. The EU is proposing to sanction companies in mainland China for the first time as part of its latest measures aimed at shutting down loopholes that allow Russia to route military technology via third countries to its weapons factories.
    Three companies in mainland China, as well as four in Hong Kong and one in India, are on a 91-page document of companies and individuals who EU member states want to add to a growing sanctions list before the second anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

  2. Oh boy here we go… let’s see how Europe will happily continue to do business with these same firms via third parties lol

  3. Modern globalization was created by Age of Enlightenment and French Revolution in form of spread of this Enlightenment by results/fruits of Enlightenment.

    When globalization work on suppression of what created it, Rationalism, Humanism (Rational Humanism), Secularism, Rule of Law, Democracy, Freedoms, first of all – Freedom of Speech (information transaction costs), it’s not globalization, it’s real anti-globalism.

    Return to pre-globalization and pre-Enlightenment neo-imperialism, populism-fascism-monarchism, clericalism, feudalism/slavery.

    By saving primary sources of globalization Europe save real globalization, even if in the short term it may not seem like it.

    And overall, peak of globalization – when Europe has capital and technologies, but have deficit of labor resources. With modern technologies, there are just one step to possibility to have almost unlimited labor resources.

  4. That would be _more_, not less, expensive than manufacturing 1mil artillery shells.

  5. Thank you Europe for doing what my government is too corrupt to do

  6. Neocons and Neoliberals – free trade will make China democratic!

    Others – Really?

    Industry from the West moves to China – China remains brutally authoritarian.

    Neocons and Neoliberals – Hong Kong will infect China with democracy, let them have it!

    China systematically exterminates democracy in Hong Kong.

    Neocons and Neoliberals – free trade makes countries allies!

    Covid – lol.

    Neocons and Neoliberals in the US and Germany and other places, we gotta keep offshoring industry to China!

    At some point it’s our fault for tolerating Neocons and Neoliberals.

  7. They could start with EU firms first. Still plenty of those who manage to do business with Ruzzia. Austria getting more gas from Ruzzia than ever.

  8. Good!

    Sanction the shit of them!

    They know what they are doing, they are not doing it by mistake.

    Throw some of their people in jail too!
