The #EU (tax payers) funds #Huawei from its #Horizon RDI program: “The Financial Times identified Huawei as a participant in 11 projects under the bloc’s flagship Horizon Europe research and innovation programme, receiving up to 14 % of funding per scheme totalling €3.89mn.” 1/
“The EU is funding Huawei to run cutting-edge research on next-generation communication systems, even though several European governments have banned the Chinese tech group from their telecoms networks.” 2/
“Huawei’s involvement in multiple sensitive projects, ranging from artificial intelligence to 6G and cloud computing, has come despite Brussels pressing for stricter curbs on the company over security fears.” 3/
“More significant than the value of the funding is the fact that it puts Huawei at the heart of sensitive technologies in Europe despite moves by about a third of EU countries to push out “high-risk vendors” from 5G infrastructure.” 4/
Huawei’s involvement in Horizon projects that cover sensitive technologies is unbelievable sloppiness from the #EU. Begs to Q about the screening mechanisms and whether it is deliberately only a smoke screen. @EU_Commission 5/5

I wrote about Finland's NATO membership for @ProspectF and especially how it was taken in China and how Chinese analysts perceived it. 1/

"Once Finland became a full member of NATO in early April, Chinese analyses of Finland’s membership could be summarized in three points: 1) Abandoning the rational “neutral” stance between the major powers speaks of current Finnish politicians’ lack of strategic vision;" 2/
"2) Finland has made its position more dangerous by abandoning its “neutrality”; 3) and simultaneously its association has made Europe’s security landscape more precarious." 3/

“The measure will expand the scope of the law -now limited to state secrets- to cover all documents, data, materials or items related to nat security and interests. It does not provide further details on what constitutes national security and interests.”1/

“Chinese citizens and organizations will have to report suspected espionage. Logistics and telecommunications companies will need to provide technical support to fight espionage, while media organizations will have to educate the public on the issue.” 2/
“Foreign businesses worry that the changes could impact how they and their staffers operate in China. There is concern over arbitrary enforcement, such as individuals being detained without concrete evidence.” 3/

China starts ‘surgical’ retaliation against foreign companies after US-led tech blockade: “[This]
reveals Xi’s strategy of narrowly targeting industries and companies with little risk of damage to China’s own interests.”

“..the decision to conduct raids and detain staff from foreign companies has raised the spectre that Beijing will escalate hostage diplomacy if relations with the west deteriorate.” 2/
“The Mintz and Astellas cases have sparked an urgent review of employee safety and the immediate suspension of some travel plans to China, according to two people from foreign risk consultancy groups.

Xi Jinping openly advocates a new world governance and new international order. In intertwined world, he fears that unity in China alone (that is not forced gently) isn’t enough to keep the one-party rule safe. 1/4
Therefore his international order mirrors the economic development and sovereignty and security principles of China, and leaves out political and the parts of human rights where citizens would would be protected by the rule of law against those in power. Xi’s international order… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Democracies have been in decline for 16 consequent years. Part of Beijing’s tactics include further weakening of the democracies and especially alienate Europe from the U.S., and destroy the transatlantic alliance.

Global Times editorial about Macron’s visit: “Among Western powers, France has relatively more common ground with China. China's and France's views on supporting multilateralism, free trade, and global governance are consistent.”

France hardly shares China’s view on global… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
The headline summaries how the Macron’s baby, European autonomy plays into Beijing’s court: “Macron's China visit embodies the value of strategic autonomy.” 2/
Macron’s visit (France-China relations), according to GT editorial, gives “positive example and valuable experience for other Western countries on how to get along with China.” 3/

Beijing’s strategy to crush the transatlantic alliance is highlighted in this GT piece by 🇨🇳 analysts’ voices. Reg Ukraine, Beijing starts meetings with Macron and von der Leyen from the position that it has already proposed a ‘peace plan’, now it’s EUR’s turn to push ceasefire:… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Lack of trust between China and the EU is not really (the gullible? weak?) EU’s fault because the US controls EUR: “the US' tighter grasp of Europe in its rivalry with China, and the scarcity of China-EU exchanges at various levels as factors leading to a decline in China-EU… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
The EU can gain much economically if it simply forms a correct understanding of China, and abandons the US: “if the EU wants to enhance autonomy and maximize its own interests through a real balance between China and the US, it should think more of pragmatic interests in… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
