Europe is too dependent on China for technologies, Finland's PM says

[BHAN85]

Finland was the leader of phones manufacturiing in the begining of XXI century, through Nokia company.

But they let his American masters to turn their company in a filthy sht.

And now they are crying due to the Chinese.

They should cry due to themselves idiocy and his American masters twisted plans against them.

Only thing Europe is advanced right now is in wars. They tried to export even their wars but this time rest of the world woke up.

They aren’t even advanced in that. The US is. Europe are just vassal states of the US empire. They have become de facto colonies. They are utterly irrelevant on the global stage. I would even put Turkey above any European country when it comes to geopolitical relevance even despite turkey’s economic problems.

 

[Menthol]

Yes, it's true I guess.

And Europe is also depending on USA as well.

In my opinion, Europe today is way too relaxed.

Lol

This is so true!!!

I still remember decades ago when Nokia was showing concept phones of the future.

It looks like iPhone.

But it's funny, instead of Nokia who will dominate smartphones, it turns out to be Apple and Google.

Europe is too dependent on China for technologies, Finland's PM says​

By Reuters • Updated: 17/11/2022 - 11:40

HELSINKI -Europe is currently too reliant on China for technologies and should be wary of this dependency, Finland’s Prime Minister Sanna Marin said on Thursday.

“Let’s be honest, we have vulnerabilities already. We see it when we look at chips or semiconductors, we are too dependent,” Marin said, speaking at Slush, an annual startup event in Helsinki.

Marin said Europe had lessons to learn from its dependency on Russian energy that led to the ongoing energy crisis in Europe, as well as the lack of medical supplies seen during the COVID pandemic.

“We have to make sure that we have the capabilities and the knowledge to build these technologies and not be dependent on China and other authoritarian countries that have a different logic than democratic countries have,” Marin said.

Marin urged Europe to invest more in its own development of new fields of technology such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing.

“I really worry about this technology part because I fear we are making the same mistakes with technology and digital solutions and also raw materials we need to build these technologies,” she said.

He says the truth. Europe must move away from China, away from Chinese strangulation, move more to Vietnam and ASEAN. Chinese can export more tech to Russia instead.

This Ukraine war will change Europe forever.

Yes, but a lot of the resources Europe gets are acquired cheaply from the developing world countries, especially Africa.

If BRI can help these countries export more to China (through better infrastructure cutting transportation costs), at more fair market prices.then it would undercut the monopolies these Europeans have in the developing world markets.

LOL, Do you think they will listen to you?

It took China several decades to get the proper infrastruture and large skilled trained work force in place, how long do you think it'll take other countries?

Yeah, what can your little unskilled Vietnam with no tech offer to the EU to replace China ? Dont make joke.

 

[salarsikander]

Europe is more than welcome to replace China as global powerhouse of Affordable price stuff, if it cant then. Then it should suck it up, like does to USA all the time.

Not replacing but +1 my friend
Europe must correct the tragic mistake of dumb Angela Merkel. She made full bet on Russia for energy, on China for exports. That’s the problem when a country gets someone like her that remains too long in power. Stupid.

If not for her, Germany woouldn't be anywhere close to today's development level.

Nonsense

Tell me what things made in China are necessary for Germany survival?

From Russia there is 0 gas since months. People here including my family are still alive.

If tomorrow 0 chinese imports, then life will continue.

Germany's economic run was largely on cheap Russian energy supply, as for China, it's just normal business, it has nothing to do with her, China's exports rose around the world, not only in Germany.

Unless Europe gives up the liberal thinking right now, they are doomed and may take thousand years to catch up with China again, if ever.

There is nothing wrong with liberal outlook, just be respectful and let other thought processes than your own have a voice.
Respect everyone and let all have opportunities.

Love Sweden being that.


Makes the society as a whole progress, varied opinions and thoughts are good for all.

It's the liberal thought process accepting China and it's values, I'm all for europe and China working together and creating new opportunities.

No, she managed EU economy well and had good relations with others, what can you ask more ？its her EU successor morons that want to be US lapdogs along with NATO that screw up relations with Russia and China, you can only blame you EU fools for yourselves for tied up your security and fate with America.

The dependence is mutual.

EU can't make trash buckets, shoes, and apparel, but we can't make good high speed bearings for example. Our machining tools, and consumables are low-end only. We have a guy on PDF who works for a cemented carbide manufacturer from GZ. Ask him. And I am not even talking about things like semiconductor manufacturing.

If China will embargo stuff to EU, it will be a happy day in Bangladesh, and Vietnam. But if it will be the other way around, it will not be so.
