    I don’t think it’s a conscience thing like the article states, it’s pragmatism. European leaders recognise that the US will loot and plunder them until there is nothing left, so their only hope to exist as an international force is through mutual cooperation with China.

    The big question is, which will win out? Reality and facts, European Chauvinism, European desire to lick US boot, or plain old European racism?

      That’s the big question, the rational thing for Europe to do is to align towards China. However, that would mean abandoning the notion of being superior to China. That may be a bridge too far for the Europeans.
