Probably should've grown some fruits and vegetables in that garden unless you've somehow learned how to eat your own bullcrap.

"Europe takes China very, very seriously," he said. "We also expect to be considered not through the lens of our relationship with others, but in ourselves."

"Uhh, actually you can't judge people by the company they keep!"

The 27-member bloc has long complained it does not receive adequate attention from Beijing, particularly compared to the United States, and that China does not sufficiently recognize the EU's agency in geopolitical affairs.

Wow maybe they should assert some kind of agency if htey want to stop being treated as subservient vassals of washington.

I'd be fine with the EU being subservient vassals of China. The EU is too stupid to deserve true sovereignty.

Maybe once Europe gets taught how to behave like civilized societies, then they can a little sovereignty, as a treat.

Just because we bow to every whim of the us doesn't mean we are subservient to them, we are totally independent and important on the world stage.
