EU does not have the capability to produce or even a wish to do so. If EU were to produce what we import from China, we'd have to open up the borders way more to get the workforce that is needed for that.

EU is not able to produce what it needs. I don't see how this fee should change this. In my opinion this is just a way to fill up the financial reserves for EU to keep spending money.

It is very good at spending it

I am a Dane and not proud of many things the government is pushing. We do many things right but also have done and do some really illogical things lately

I doubt that it is understated but more an attempt to retain diplomatic bonds without offending the orange baby

Not only that, but also adds additional conditions even though he said otherwise in the first post..

They made a choice. Let's see how they handle the consequences

Yeah I noticed. They have pLans to do so within two years. I agree that it should but doubt that it can. Especially as we see oil imports being diverted through other countries.

As mentioned it feels like whitewashing, just to clear one's morals while letting citizens and corporations pay the price.

Instead of creating limitations, they should ramp up and support energy sources and tech production within EU

Yet Europe cannot break free of Russian gas. Setting up moral limitations without considering the actual consequences sounds like a prime EU move.

I like a lot of things that the EU has done but it also drives itself into blind ends pursuing a theoretical moral high ground

But he apparently can't win a war doing so in one country. what would make his thread more realistic when attacking a union of countries?

How can he say that when they can't even win a war against Ukraine?

Not sure if this is a sarcastic or real comment... 🤔

US says a lot of things often contradicting itself these days. If most of the world hasn't stopped listening to what it has to say, it soon will

Big tech has never seen common people as anything but data. It's funny they now are concerned for what will happen to us if their bubble bursts
