I think people believe that being dependent on a country on economy is dangerous, but they don't realized that you can slowly wean or balance it off because of new emerging markets and economy is interdependent.

But being completely choked by security and economy , especially security. You are pretty fucked.

back from holidays.

its pre-mature for people to read too much into that macron interview. however for prosperity, some notable quotes:

“The question Europeans need to answer … is it in our interest to accelerate [a crisis] on Taiwan? No. The worse thing would be to think that we Europeans must become followers on this topic and take our cue from the U.S. agenda and a Chinese overreaction,”

and staying on topic he also said this:

“Europeans cannot resolve the crisis in Ukraine; how can we credibly say on Taiwan, ‘watch out, if you do something wrong we will be there’? If you really want to increase tensions that’s the way to do it,”.

so TLDR: the current french president, who I do not believe will be around for the years ahead, has questioned whether europe should be a party to fasttracking a proxy war with china (a war which is inevitable at this point).

China will still take the bait but not now. They can't promote peace and help everyone around the world and just go agro on Taiwan at the moment.
US wants to trigger China to invade Taiwan.

The Chinese on the other hand wants the Taiwanese to fire a couple of missiles and bomb on China first

unfortunately for your personal attack:

The US was able to sanction Russia (to a degree) and has managed (somewhat) to isolate Russia. One of the key factors here is that Russia is/was isolationist and therefore did not have the strength to fight back politically on the world stage (prior to the invasion) which led to an international blunder invasion condemned by virtually everyone (accepted some of that would be private from neutrals/allies).

The issue is that China is not isolationist and has been busy over the last 10 years acquiring (to a degree) merit points, either via the Belt and Roads inititiave or diplomacy. I managed to catch up on some reading while on holidays - there have been many articles this year in "The Economist" relating to the reverse of globalisation and protectionism on the part of the US. I'm sure you will find similar articules online within seconds. Basically the strategy, as I understand it, is for the US to decouple from the global market (read: China), to enable action (read: Sanctions / proxy war etc) from a position where the US is no longer reliant on China for certain trades (as they are currently). i.e. to use the same blueprint on China which has been very successful against Russia, but that there are different challenges associated with this (noting China is completely different from Russia on the international stage).
