China expands its Influence in Europe - Geopolitics Snapshot #2
Welcome to Episode 2 of the Geopolitics Snapshot, where we take a look at current geopolitical events that are shaping the world around us!
This time we take a look at China's president Xi Jinping's visit to Europe - specifically to France, Serbia and Hungary. This was his first visit to the continent since 2019, and the situation between China, the European Union and other European countries has changed quite a bit since then.
In Paris, Xi Jingping met with French president Emmanuel Macron and President of the the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, where they discussed issues like Chinese 'Overcapacity', Russia's invasion of Ukraine and trade relations.
Afterwards, Xi flew to Belgrade where he met with Serbia's president Aleksandar Vucic. Chinese-Serbian relations intensified quite significantly in the last years and during the visit, Serbia become the first European country to join China's "Global Community of Shared Future" Initiative. Another topic was the 25th anniversary of the bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade during the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia.
Lastly, Xi visit Budapest where he met with Victor Orban where both leaders agreed to intensify relations and entered a strategic partnership. Soon, Hungary hopes to become a European hub for Chinese electronics, batteries and electric vehicles.

    中国大概是唯一一个不希望南斯拉夫继续分裂下去的国家。而欧盟总觉得南斯拉夫解体的还不够,应该继续分裂。欧盟最大的问题在于:他们不想看到诸如,南斯拉夫、苏联,甚至奥匈帝国这种统一的大国出现在欧洲。但是,欧盟自己又没有统合的能力和欲望。这导致目前的欧洲一盘散沙,十个国家有三十种政策,因为每个国家内部还有不同的政党。欧盟就是现代的神圣罗马帝国。看似很大,但内部分裂,而且没有统一的中央。这种组织是很难真正与中国抗衡的。中国只要随便支持其中的一个大诸侯就可以了。

    The West can launch a war against China, send their warships to surround China, flex their muscles at China's doorstep, they have invaded China, but they do not allow China to export some small things to Russia, do not allow China to enter the European market, only allow them to earn China's money, do not allow China to earn their money, they think this is very just, and in our eyes, The West is so arrogant and shameless

    1. Gurus didnt invent sikism to battle caste but Hindus became warrior class and created a sect to oppose islamic oppresion 2. there is no 5 Ks of sikhism. its a british invention, specifically Max Arthur MacAuliffe. to divide hindus and sikh by infusing false notion of monotheism in sikhism vs idolatory amongst hindus. this caused problems with british historians and some sikhs and hindus + majority sikhs 3. sikhs didnt believe they are seperate people, british did. Max Arthur MacAuliffe wrote sikh history and translated guru granth sahib and wrote many propaganda works of casteless sikh society thrashing caste ridden hindus, the same template used on buddhism to divide caste and north vs south to divide on language. hindus = caste, cow and curry, but others are good. this was template and sikhs were biggest victim of this. FYI ; every sikh guru came from upper caste hindu family and today sikhs has the largest untouchable population share, even with so called anti-caste foundation of sikhism 4. and only sikhs from outside india wanted seperate sikh state. and these were the same sikhs who fought for british and were allied with muslim league who were collaborators. these sikh even today call bhagat singh, one of the revolutionary sikh who fough for independence a terrorist because he used to attack british forces and condemn udham singh's assasination of Gen.Dwyer. yes the same Dwyer who massacred sikhs in jallian walah bhagh 5. and there is no history of conflict between hindus and sikhs till 70s. post bangladesh liberation war, Pakistan and Usa decided to bleed India through 1000 cuts and hence they plotted sikh insurgency for next 10 years and pumped punjab diaspora with terroristic agenda. and the liberal progressive government kept it going to paint itself as liberals and let it grow. and then it lead to 1980s insurgency and operation Blue star. and the So 'Infamous' Hindu nationalist organisation RSS sided with sikhs post Indira gandhi assasination and still support them. Hindus and sikhs have no issue between them, but sikhs and hindus sure have problem with outsiders who want khalistan from canada EDIT : also, one should question. why does khalistanis imagine fake atrocity of sikhs in india when indian sikhs themselves dont see but decide to look away from Pakistan where sikhs almost are wiped out? why doesnt khalistan have a single inch of land from pakistan, the land where sikh empire's capital and dominance was but demands a whole chunk of indian land which wasnt even sikh part to begin with?
