@centreeuropeanref.bsky.social@sandertordoir.bsky.social, chief economist at the @centreeuropeanref.bsky.social, described the proposal as a “watershed moment” for Germany. Berlin, he argued, is no longer naïve about China’s trade and industrial policy.
@centreeuropeanref.bsky.socialSegún analistas como @sandertordoir.bsky.social, del @centreeuropeanref.bsky.social, esto representa una señal política contundente de que Europa está dispuesta a defender su entramado productivo frente a un shock industrial que pone en riesgo su soberanía.

@centreeuropeanref.bsky.social..."Germany has gone from being the main brake on stronger European trade tools to actively supporting a number of concrete proposals," Tordoir adds.
@centreeuropeanref.bsky.social"What the two leading European capitals are signaling is a desire to change their approach and introduce a more structured, comprehensive set of policies to slow the impact of the second Chinese shock on European industry," points out @sandertordoir.bsky.social of the CER.
@centreeuropeanref.bsky.socialIf implemented through the EU’s law-making apparatus, it [the letter] would mark a dramatic shift in how the bloc intends to confront China. The main novelty is a “second-strike capability”, as @sandertordoir.bsky.social of the @centreeuropeanref.bsky.social think-tank, puts it.
@centreeuropeanref.bsky.social'Eerder durfden ze hun eigen belangen in China niet op het spel te zetten, maar daar komt langzaam verandering in.'
