"US has 'no better friend' than Germany, says US top diplomat Antony Blinken"

Talk about white men talks with fork......
So what happened to the most important special friendship the British always harps on about?

Just to show you. Britain is nothing but a useful idiot for the U.S.
Sure, but Euro Cup is full of ads from Chinese companies, and some Germans are upset:rolleyes:

Dong JingWei appeared in public on June 23rd at a SCO meeting along with Zhao Kezhi from Ministry of Public Security. He’s appearance squashes any rumors of his defection to the US.

I’ll be the first to admit that I stand corrected. And of course a huge sigh of relief that rumors of his defection are untrue.
Contents of Hunter Biden's laptop? Proof of Coronavirus engineering? This is what you fell for man...
If Dong allegedly had Trump's missing Georgia votes, Hilary's email server, and the key to Comet Ping Pong pizzeria's secret back room, then we would have a winner of QAnon Bingo.

Not necessarily, they are trying to force out Chinese solar. They can still do their green-flavoured BRI copy, it will just cost multiple times more money. Part of me can’t help but think that’s a feature, not a bug. A hallmark of western ‘privatisation’ has always been about transforming public assets and money into private assets and money with astronomical profits for the well connected few private individuals involved, so why would this be any different?
This could NOT have been said this ANY better!

Btw, this solar materials thing has been going on for nearly ten years, or more. It’s long been known, here, that solar roofing tiles was the way to go, and many folks (myself included) are desirous of installing them. However, the only thing that has held up this massive private investment in solar roofing tiles is that US companies failed to compete with Chinese companies in providing affordable alternatives and the US gov’t has not allowed Chinese companies to corner the US market. So, this new ban is only an progression from whatever tariffs or other sanctions that were already in place. This is simply the west artificially privileging itself to compete in what will be a huge future market. It’s just another example of the lie of Capitalism, that “the market” governs commerce.

This is the third time America is banning Chinese solar. In fact, I'm pretty sure that Chinese solar is already basically banned in the United States because of tariffs.

Obama set tariffs on Chinese solar and banned it. Trump set tariffs on Chinese solar and banned it. Now Biden is setting an export ban.

None of this had any impact on China's solar industry. The only thing an American ban would do is further increase American inflation.
I wish I’d seen your post before I responded. I made the same observations as you.
