The rise of the right in Europe, former finance minister of Greece Yanis Varoufakis argues, doesn't necessarily translate into a bleak prospect for China-Europe relations. In fact, their survival depends on trade relationships with China.

Derisking from China? US and Europe depends more on China , not vice versa.
Europe badly needs China as a couterbalance against American influence. America being the only winner out of the world wars has hurt both Europe and China
While you are right, but the optics of theses process is getting less dependent of the "EVIL" Commies
To be honest
I think China should stop trading with USA
I think USA right now is crazy
But most of its merits are for ultra rich oligarchs and so lazy people. China collapsed our middle class by their cheap and 996 labor. If we don’t derisk, our middle class will also collapse like USA.
@@sleefy2343 yes and getting worse.
It's tragic what has happened to Germany economically in the last few years. But that is what happens when elected leaders fail to put their own country interest first before other.
Truly failure of west demoncrazy
@@hoekoktong9099 absolutely
US Destruction of NordStream Pipeline was an Attack against Germany!
they can't lol are you all forgetting how many US bases there are in Europe? Europeans are hostages and their leaders just pretend that they're doing all this willingly.
Stay safe Sir! 'They' are willing to do anything to stop people telling the truth.
Ye, that famous western frredom of speach. :D
would you say the same about trump and farage
Look at Boeing???
Do you mean “pravda”
❤ well said and well REASONED.
Chinese will never forget the 8 nations of Europe and the West caused the hundred-year humiliation in China's history. The lion has woken up, and that cannot be stopped.
This is true, but we must not forget that this is a pretext, because historically, the Chinese have never needed foreigners to destroy themselves.
@@PavillonNoirParis Really? They are still around after 5300 years during which time belligerent and arrogant westerners were living atop trees and in caves.
8 nations? I know about USA and the British, the opium mafias and Portugal.
It’s a dragon not a lion. China is falling fast it overcooked the stew it’s burnt.
@@PavillonNoirParis You know nothing about China's history. The British came to China to buy tea and porcelain but they had nothing of interest to sell to the Chinese. When they ran out of silver to pay for the Chinese goods, they forced the Chinese to accept opium. The Opium Wars ensued. China was forced to pay reparations in addition to ceding Hong Kong to them. A weakened China became a free-for-all for European countries and Japan to invade and exploit China. This period is known as the Century of Humiliation to the Chinese. Since then, the Chinese have picked themselves up and is now an economic and military power.
German economy depended largely on cheap russian energy and vast chinese market. now they are done.
yes.
All because of US
The right thing for all countries is to de-risk from the US and the Anglo-Saxon fraternity.
Oh, my goodness, this is crazy! Good luck & I hope it gets cleared up quickly! ❤❤❤
But the European general public aren't listening
Hubris of the defeated.
Hubris of the defeated.
They are asleep.
Come on, Europeans are a spiritual people, they will fight and even die to spread democracy to China, they will go to the democratic heaven and marry the Virgin Mary.
Long live people of Greece!🎉❤
Talk is cheap, how to derisk? when their import supply chains, and export demand loops are so intertwined and inter-connected with the Chinese side to grow dan prosper mutually.
👏👏👍🇧🇷🇷🇺🇮🇳🇨🇳🇿🇦➕️👍✌️✌️
Raw truth ❤❤❤😅😅😅
Bravo, Sir! Bravo 👏👏👏
Europe has own freedom of speech. I always proud for European innovation and European people humanity but they right now loss their demand only for more depend on Washington DC.
The EU has become the eUSA (eastern United States of America).
It's supra national capital that uses the USA to play its internatinal game.
There is something called
The Balance of Power in the world
Cooperation is the only recourse for world economic advance.
The question is whether your country would want to be US'S VESSEL STATE OR NOT...
What about the Unconditional Basic Income? When is the Greece government going to introduce it?
Trade is a two way street . Nobody forces anybody to buy or to sell. It is demand / supply driven . Surplus, you sell. Shortage, you buy . Makes everybody richer because mfg can sell higher price to the other market .
❤❤❤❤❤
ONE THING, Dont buy any parachutes or pacemakers??????
When will this grifter go away?
Let's factor in another 4 years with Trump first.
Some of the statements are true and some are opinions. When you become too dependent on another entity, soon they will push their cultural and political agenda onto you. In terms of competitiveness, Europe has very few things left. Further trade without barriers will remove more jobs away from the continent, and that will feed into extremism and political instability. Technology is on a verge of a paradigm shift, and you want Europe to be at the table, not giving away its advantages. I am sorry, mister, but you are talking nonsense and you are not the economist I thought you were…
Ursula is a big disappointment to EU, a wrong personality to lead EU in the current of world of complications & complexities, and she's a weasel of the US Regime.
Well, Ursula married an American. What do you expect?
You mean that old coot 😅
Yet Scholz, Sanchez and several others support her bid for a 2nd term. Only Macron said she was bad for Europe. This alone is evidence how the EU national leaders are. Meloni too did a 180 degree turn once she got voted in. Its a literal EU comedy show
She has got the CCP rattled. Doing her job well then.
Ursula von der lying is a robot!
I felt very disappointment when Ursula is proposed by EU leaders again. She doesn't speak for EU.
She’s a descendant of one Nazi officer and an American slave trade businessman.
There are numerous political blogs about her from years ago
Given China's recent history, I'm pretty sure they always expect the worst from Europe and the US. Also, given Europe and the US's imperialistic and colonial history, only someone totally ignorant of history would believe anything they say.
Hmmm...I thought you had democracy in Europe. And you cannot vote for the leaders you want?
“De-risk“ is just a euphemism. You should believe the “free world" when they first described it as "De-couple". "De-risk" is just "De-couple" in all areas of any significance. They are simply going ahead with their Cold War against China. And they've drawn up many a justification for this Cold War, but none can hide their embarrassing need for euphemism to begin with. Their word salads have failed already. In messaging, the "free world" has already become the Soviet Union, and they're fantasizing about winning their New Cold War.
Japan too
@@geoff9858Japan was part/with these countries, it just didn’t like the cut😉
Agree Japan is the antagonist here in the far east. But one must not underestimate India the proverbial snake in the grass. Then it's the Philippines the next Ukraine in Asia .
Thank you for speaking the truth about the whole situation. Europe needs politicians that work for Europe and not Washington DC.
That is why we need people like Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orban and Slovakian prime minister Robert Fico, plus left and peoples’ parties across the European Union bloc to do that
❤exactly
If the US didn't have its military bases occupying all European countries, I think things would be very different.
I agreed, plus they make sure they put in (corrupt)governments all over Europe that only listen to Washington.
More than 40 in germany alone.
They should start process of eviction, NOW.
"Occupying'? LOL. That's the dumbest comment on this thread.
@@calc1657it's literally true though at least in Germany and Italy's case
Well said👌👍🍺
💯🎯👏👏🙏🙏
Sir you are a hero for spread the truth and education.
Ursula is US governor for Europe
Exactly!
telling the truth
I remember doing work for BMW during the GFC period and lot of their executives in China were saying thank god for the Chinese market, or we'd be fucked.
During covid as well, thank God China invested a lot in BMW otherwise they are f*****
CEO of companys know where money flow . but they cant hope to change direction of where Brussels puppet leaders head to .
How they can when US military base anywhere in EU and the dollars print machine push out a trillion every 100 days
The Chinese ev Market is a race to the bottom as they are now laying off Chinese workers.
In order to get American support for another term, Ursula imposed the Chinese EV tariff without obtaining consensus from all EU members. This trade war is exactly what U.S. wants and being the primary political beneficiary at the expense of European and American.
Chinese are now talking about banning all EU products as a react to the tariff that YOU put on Chinese EV. Such as car, agricultural products, animal products, luxury goods, fashion clothing, wine and etc.
Its not US/Amercia, its the top 1%, the oligarchs.
Wow! So Germany has slipped back into a totalitarian state . 😮😮😮
Yes, again.
make a small mustache in the middle
Whether reform or revolution, the future of Europe ultimately lies in the hands of the European People, who need to reckon with both American imperialism and their own colonial past.
Yes.
Thanks for sharing and surfacing the truth. 👏👍
Great speech ... truthful
I totally agree with you that ms. Van der Lyon works for the US. But God help the EU with ms. Kallas coming in!
U surelah very better liar
Very eye opening. Thanks.
One thing for sure, Hungary will be the envy of Western Europe in the future,
Ldt mr guess. No immigration 😅😅😅
@@ricardop9196 Not qualified to comment on that.
Yes ! Let’s bring Mr PUTIN in the mix….!
@@TonyFabris-lb2mg Yes, he is much better educated and sophisticated than a lot of politicians (won't call them leaders in here as they are merely Puppet of US) and will deliver what he said no doubt about that.
And Serbia.
I think South Korea should derisk from the US, but if this happens, a regime change operation might occur.
100% right
Occurs before that de-risking would happens my friend.
US has military bases in SK not to fight the NK but keep SK on a very short leash .
@@jessicayoung1190 correct and also to control Samsung
yes, South Korea wants to live just like the North Koreans in 15-minute cities not even having Internet access keeping their people under the Iron Curtain just ask any Russians Chinese, and Eastern Europeans who live under communism they will all tell you the same thing it was absolutely horrible just looked at the Russians. They are dragging off their citizens to send them off to the front lines. and the same with the Chinese everybody that I know who lives in China stated that their economy is taking a huge downturn. That’s why there are thousands of Chinese on the southern border of the U.S. Unfortunately a lot of Chinese had high hopes for China thinking their country is moving on towards democracy just ask any average Chinese person but just my opinion Taiwan is the real China. That’s how China should’ve been just asked any Hong Kong stars that’s why they are all fleeing, but can’t take the wealth with them since China don’t allow you to take out more than $3000 out of the country, which is a damn travesty and you called that freedom but if you misbehave, they will keep their Chinese citizens in certain areas with their so-called 15-minute cities aka social credit scores restrictions imagine not being able to use public transportation or going over to the next town because you didn’t have enough points let that sink in
So why is the Europeans not standing up for themselves to benefit their own people.
Occupied by the US just like Japan
Weak European leaders and US owned media in Europe.
Sweden recently revealed their NATO membership contract content.
The clauses were truly something.
@@bonaviafx9434the US military will leave Japan and South Korea once China has total control of the Taiwan Strait.
Europa is a slave to America
🩶USA / America calls it "Liberation" instead of "Invasion". That was what US call it in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia and the list goes on... Why the double standard? Confused... Please enlighten. Genuine question...

So China never invaded a country like Tibet Uyghur's inner Mongolia northern India Vietnam, and finally building an island for military use next to the Philippines OK sparrow
Russia invaded Afghanistan too and China that killed millions of people and the list calls on
eu committing hara kiri
Last December, I was in Xiangyang, 1000 km from the ocean. I saw so many German SUVs, Mercedes, Audi, BMW and many VWs, it was impressive. (Xiangyang is a beautiful city)
And XiangYang 襄阳 wasn't even a first tier big city in China...
@@Lennonrx8 third-tier city
Thank you Sir❤very fresh argument and absolutely enlightening which is rare from western media🎉please keep up the good work 😊
At the end of the day, in any country, turning left or right doesn't matter; MONEY/ECONOMY is the decision factor. Even military power depends on MONEY.
hwo started the immigration problem in europe it's the american wars in the middle east and europe shared in each one of them
They anybody they cannot bribe. stay safe and god bless!
East may be East, West may be West. Mr Varoufakis, however, has friends here.
May Europe once again rise up to the ideals of her Enlightenment.
The EU is an embarrassment
@@Mel_Gerrard the extension of NATO and EU has weaken the culture of both institution. Too many cooks spoiled the soup.
so who the hell re-voted for her for a 2nd term if none of the EU state heads dislike her?
US controls EU .
Biden appointed her. One ring to rule them all😂
Bravo Dude...greatings from Balkan.
Why is Germany the most advance nation and clever people are so intimidated by the US????
What a joke ... And the eu preaches freedom n democracy ?
Derisking from china is delusional and impossible, EU's best economic decision is to focus on it's competitive advantages with Asia it's closer to Asia than American. Following US around especially on economic policies will ruin EU in general.
Ursula talks toughlike most politicians but on a Dark Alley by Herself!!!! she be Running like B%$%$#
VW group which owns Porsche, Lamborghini, Audi, Bugatti and many others get 55% of their money/Profits from the Chinese market alone (VW was the first to enter the Chinese market in the 1980s that has made them rich on the back of the Chinese manufacturing success). Merecedes Benz and BMW group also the same. Keep in mind Mercedes Benz is 21% Chinese owned by GEELY and BAIC.
It's time China bears some pain and decouple from the ungrateful west especially the US and creates a truly multi-polar world . The most that can happen is a drop in export and revenues initially but the global south will pick up and take the slack in time. Let's see then the collective west slowly grinding to a halt.
I don’t think that’s gonna happen
China represents the people of China not global south or anything If the people is not happy with this Than they can’t do it
After all the ones who can control the government is the people.
Really? You think German people have a choice? You think they want to cut off Russian energy and cutoff their Chinese customer?
You think the people of US want to choose between trump or Biden like there is nobody capable left?
@@henli-rw5dw there is no one left. Have you seen the Senate and the Congress. Whole bunch of lunatics. Just name a few, Pelosi, Harris, Sanders, MTG, Bo Bo, the list goes on and on from both sides of the parties.
Thanks!
You are speaking logic in none logic world, explain to me who a war criminal get the world noble prize for peace ? And another trying to save the kids in Ukraine get to be a war criminal?
But Europe is constantly turning further and further left, not right.
yah confusing these reports, just propaganda honestly
🙏👏👏👏 bravo for standing up to those that make EU who love Washington war escalation
von der Leyen is a pure authentic US dog.
Wow, thanks for these truths!
Great man who has guts to speak out❤
7:20 freedom of speech, how wonderful!
The usual nonsense from Varoufakis
6.3% of German exports go to China only slightly more what they export to Austria .And when you add together Switzerland,Austria and Czech republic it's even 14% more then exports to big USA or
big China .It's the imports from China what are the problem and for some products where there are no alternative supplier
👏👏👏👏👏👏
“What’s wrong with that? They need ports; they get ports”. BOOM!
You're the true political intellectual in our modern world who understands both the West and the East.
Varoufakis is a clown,since he got sacked by his boss. Whar a nonsense talker..
Kicked Ursula out then
the thing is, china likely doesn't care about right and left from the partician scale, since its quite a poor system,
there are certain left and rights who agree on almost everything, while ones on the same side of the axis is considered very opposing in views
Yeah, one of the serious problems Europe have today is the extreme inefficiency of its institutions and bureaucracy. I even suspect that the German Ministry of Interior has no idea why yanis are baned. Because they have no idea, so they use national security excuses to say they can’t give a reason.
What a great guy, dare to tell the truth!
You earn my respect because you are one of the few politicians who can speak out the truth!
Every countries deoend on the each other. It's been this way since the dsys of cavemen. Do people understand this simple fact?
I am surprised that no one voted to have von der crazy as head of the EU.
In the end, China will face the same problem as Iran and Russia. When the United States expanded to the Russian border, Europe followed the United States (Even if there is some verbal opposition). When the United States tore up the Iran nuclear agreement, Europe still followed the United States (Although Europe did not tear up the agreement, they did not maintain cooperation with Iran, which means that Europe actually tore up the agreement). Whether Russia or Iran, they all have deep economic ties with Europe. Moreover, Europe is the party that gains greater benefits from these collaborations. However, neither can change Europe's attitude of following the United States, which is more docile than a slave. Maybe the United States really invented a mind control device during the Cold War
What is even more ridiculous is that before the Iran nuclear deal was reached, China and Iran cooperated on oil and gas projects. When the Iran nuclear deal was reached, Iran immediately dumped China and looked for Europeans. Europe's betrayal of Iran makes the Chinese laugh, but when the same thing is about to happen to China, can the Chinese laugh at themselves like they laughed at Iran?
If China-EU trade is really cut off because of people like von der Leyen and the Green Party, I believe the Chinese will definitely show an absolutely cold side to the Europe.
No china is different, its lucky.
Global south is growing too fast and decoupling with the west is very gradual. In fact, decoupling will end up helping china by developing it's local brands.
The US and EU can’t dominate the world anymore. China makes everything, Russia have all the materials. What Russia lacks, China can get it from Africa, South America, and other ASEAN countries. Even if Japan, South Korea and the Philippines join the west, they are still the minority. With China and Russia at the helm, the US can’t wage any war. All this silly talk of fighting China. 20 years in Afghanistan against sandal wearers ended up leaving in the night like thieves.
some global south countries think their master us are still the are most powerful 😂
Derisk from Usa, Derisk from upper class gender derangement.... less influencer more working class
Civil war will be in Europe also, how can a few people simply decide how an entire Union should be governed????? Poland is already expressing verbally how they feel...and gave a warning...
As a Chinese, I can say that from my primary school education until now, whether it was in school or just social life, I have been taught that we want the best for ourselves, want everyone in the world to be safe and well-lived, and if you are a Chinese, you should respect every nation and never invade others or interfere with other people's business. So I was very shocked that European countries actually are being told by the US gov what to do and EU are standing with US on certain matters. It should be the European people to decide what best for themselves, not other countries. and the politicians should act on its people and actually consider what's the future for themselves. I think the US armies should never set on foot on EU continent, with military forces from other countries, it's hard to listen to its people.
Sounds like the Gestapo in Germany is back in force again...
Germany has really turned into a failed state!@
You always speak the truth, a righteous person. The world needs more people like you.
I heard it clearly n her name is " Born to lie " 🤭🤭🤣😂
Normal trade cannot be entangled with hostile actions. One shouldn't expect normal trade if confrontation continues. Look at Australia in the past years under Morrison.
I think Yanis Varoufakis has been left behind by the latest contemporary independent debaters when he made the mistake a few years ago at Oxford University (Cambridge?) students union, I think it was, by adopting the western mainstream political line when he attacked China and implicitly supported the British rule in Hong Kong, a position he must have thought was solid among the young and best for his career at the time. If so, it was a big mistake, for world politics very quickly changed and the current position of the global south and the majority of countries is now solidly in favour of China. Hong Kong's security architecture, which he disengenuously argued against (to student applause) using words such as "dicatorship", is in fact standard world policy. From that point I for one take what he says with suspicion, and maybe it is no coincidence that he doesn't appear much among contemporary debaters. Nevertheless what he says on the topic of Europe seems right, but I cannot take his conviction at face value.
Bravo, Yanis!
