Chinese green technology poses national security problem for Europe, report warns ft.trib.al/r4qQMKH

Hilariously, when you actually read this FT article 👇 one of the main "national security problems for Europe" that could be "posed by Chinese green technology" is, quote: "that the US could demand Europe remove Chinese technology from its energy systems — or face tariffs, sanctions or reduced security commitments."

In other words, a risk that has literally nothing to do with China but everything to do with the US's chokehold on European sovereignty.
