A lot of countries have stopped at least some of their dealings with Israel, especially weapons export and import.
Mind you we don’t have an official source that this is true for China, only 1 company that wants to get out of a deal in Israel.
Good thing they got rid of the Shah in 1979. It’s totally been progress ever since. /s
Sorry, Double post.
since the outbreak of the war in Israel, Beijing has classified Israel as a “high-risk area” and imposed a ban on any new Chinese investments in the country,
This is not a moral standing by China, it’s 100% pragmatic deeming Israel a high risk area.
There is no reason to call China “based” or any other such crazy comments we see here.
This is not a moral standing, the basis is that Israel is deemed too risky.
And that’s just the start
No you didn’t really make a “just the start”, because your point is stupid. Every European country is doing everything they can to get independent of American weapons.
The reason we buy them now is mostly to help Ukraine, and maintain arsenals based on older agreements.
I can’t keep track of every country’s evils,
No because you are only seeing shadows in the dark.
So yeah, if it’s “fuck the USA”, it’s “fuck the EU and NATO”, too. Sorry
Absolutely not, you are just being irrational. EU actually stands for good, and respecting human rights is part of the requirements to be a member of EU. And those rights are actually upheld as law by EU. No other defense or trade alliance or union that I know of, is as observant to human rights as EU is.
Even by your own account Your accusation is nothing but guilt by association. You are just raving without even having a point.
EU deals with USA because USA used to be an ally that although a mixed bag, they generally stood for observing international law and for defending democracy.
That has changed and we can’t trust them to do that anymore. So EU has started MANY programs to achieve independence from USA, and on defense one such major program to the tune 2 trillion Euro, is the SAFE program.
Your ignorance and accusations are astounding for not knowing or understanding what EU is all about. Which is the exact opposite of what USA has become under Trump.
Nah, it’s just how it is.
No it doesn’t, and the speech by Mark Carney in Davos explain why.
If you didn’t hear it, one of the things he emphasized about Canada being a good strategic partner was that Canada stands for stability.
This is very contrary to UK, that has been absolute chaos for a decade now due to Brexit.
But like Canada EU also stands for stability, so Canada and EU are good matches in that regard.
EU is also a strong cooperation between small and middle powers, much in line with what Carney say we need more of.
UK did the opposite, and broke the cooperation with 27 countries of EU.
UK does not stand for the dependability and cooperation among middle states that Mark Carney was calling for. EU does.
VW brand sold 14% more BEV than Tesla in Europe in 2025.
But VW Group sold 3 times as many BEV cars as Tesla!!
Tesla is seriously dying in Europe.
That’s bullshit, EU absolutely stands for Democracy, and so do the member states, except Hungary.
Even the best democracies seem to have some way to go regarding LGBT acceptance.
Here we are pretty good with the LGB but the T part is still somewhat problematic.
It’s not like it’s dangerous, but there is a lot of disrespect and lack of understanding.
There is nothing in your previous comment that shows it’s a personal experience. I am sorry to hear it is so bad for you.
I suppose people who are fascists or don’t give a shit or are extremely ignorant.
Yes that is true, but this trend started already late 2024, and in 2025 Tesla sales were consistently 50% below 2024. Even before Greenland became an issue.
Sweden, Germany and France have had similar decline to Denmark in Tesla sales. And finally sales in Norway are declining for Tesla too. IDK why, but for some reason Tesla remained a darling in Norway longer than for any other European country.
But apparently the bubble is bursting in Norway now:

To put that into concrete numbers, VW sold 274,278 EVs to Tesla’s 236,357. And that’s just the VW brand itself—the automaker also owns Skoda (in 4th place, with 171,703 sales), Audi (5th place, 153,845 sales), Cupra (15th place, 79,269 sales), and Porsche (21st place, 32,715 sales).
274,278+171,703+153,845+79,269+32,715 = 711,813
711,813 / 236,357 = 3,01
So VW group has 3 times the sales in Europe that Tesla has. That’s a bit more than “slipped behind”.
Even main VW brand by itself is almost 14% higher than Tesla!
In Denmark with 70% EV sales, No Tesla model is even in top 10 anymore! And that’s despite Tesla basically only sell 2 models!
Canada is way better than just 2 places better than UAE.
We had a woman recently jailed in UAE for months, because she was divorced here in Denmark as a Dane living in Denmark.
But her husband was a muslim, and filed a complaint in UAE while she was on holiday there. And she was arrested for being divorced!!!
Yes definitely very safe. 🤣🤣🤣
I have to puke every time I hear women or minorities praise Dubai or anything UAE. It’s a shithole dictatorship kept in check with religious fanaticism. 🤢🤮
Only in your head. I have no idea why you are upvoted, safety is no the same as terrifying.
Most countries have safety indexes for traveling to them as tourists, what so strange about making one for LGBT, and why do you feel like degrading it?
USA is a very violent country, and I suspect you are right. Anecdotally the decades of refusal for stricter federal gun regulations indicate that very many Americans want violence.
There are lots of Americans I like very much. USA has some very exceptional people and many good people.
Unfortunately they are not the ones in power, and the ones in power are not just a little bit bad and a little bit selfish.
They are lead Trump who is a flaming malignant narcissist, with a White House filled with Sociopaths. It’s an absolutely insane government that doesn’t give a shit about causing harm or breaking up old alliances if they think they can profit from it.
As gravitas_deficiency wrote, the US government is forcing our hand, and we can’t treat USA like 2 countries, we have to treat it as 1 country. Last time with Trump we waited it out, but Trump has made that an impossible option this time. And the American people has made it an impossible option by electing Trump twice.
