Excluding China, there are six countries which account for approximately 75 percent of the worlds coronavirus deaths. These countries if China was ever to plan and launch a biological attack would be at the top of their list. Is this just a coincidence?
The United States of America – it’s no secret and its been touted by China they have a 100 year plan to take over America then the world. The United States and China are the closest of enemies.
Belgium – Brussels is the headquarters of the European Union. With some 57 fatalities per 100,000 inhabitants, it has the highest per-capita death rate in the world — almost four times that of the U.S.
Spain – After the return of democracy following the death of General Franco in 1975, Spain’s foreign policy priorities were to break out of the diplomatic isolation of the Franco years and expand diplomatic relations, enter the European Community, and define security relations with NATO, later joining the organization in 1982.
Spain has established itself as a major participant in multilateral international security activities. Spain’s European Union membership represents an important part of its foreign policy. Even on many international issues beyond Western Europe, Spain prefers to coordinate its efforts with its EU partners through the European political cooperation mechanisms.
Italy – The Italian government installed in September was always likely to be more skeptical of China than the previous administration, but that stance has been compounded by disappointing sales and investment figures showing a growing trade deficit with China.
Preliminary statistics suggest that Italian exports to China actually declined last year, while Chinese investments in Italy have underwhelmed in all but the controversial area of 5G. An Italian parliament committee has since recommended that the government block Huawei and other Chinese providers from its fifth-generation networks.
Adding to the tensions between Rome and Beijing, Italy is now the epicenter in Europe of the fight against coronavirus that first emerged in China. To contain the outbreak, Italy on Jan. 31 suspended flights to and from mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. The ban until April 28, the first by a European Union member, was blasted by China, which said it is “strongly dissatisfied with the overreaction and restrictions of the Italian side.”
France – Even as the two celebrate cultural ties, political and economic tensions remain in the foreground.
UK – The U.K.- China relationship has been up and down in the last few years but has certainly cooled as the two countries don’t see eye to eye over what is happening in Hong Kong, or broader national and maritime security matters in the South China Sea.
Netherlands – Reuters reported that the Netherlands had withheld the license ASML needs to export its newest machines to China following pressure from the U.S. government.
ASML, one of the Netherlands’ largest companies, is a near monopolist in lithography, an essential step in the manufacture of computer chips. China has invested billions to develop its burgeoning semiconductor industry, but needs ASML equipment if its chipmakers are to compete with the best in Taiwan, South Korea and the United States.
“We are concerned that the Netherlands is politicizing our trade relationship under American pressure,” Chinese ambassador Xu Hong was quoted as saying in the Het Financieele Dagblad newspaper.
“If this movement continues it will of course negatively affect bilateral relations.”
As the United States and the EU review and tighten their trade policies and the people of China resume their protests the CCP strategies on world domination may take a different form.
Food for thought….
