In a recent interview with CGTN, Clare Daly, a former Member of the European Parliament, emphasized the importance of global cooperation over divisive trade tactics. Daly likened anti-China tariffs to \"shooting ourselves in the head,\" arguing that such measures are counterproductive.
Daly pointed out that China is the EU's largest trading partner, highlighting that Europe stands to gain more from this relationship than it loses. She criticized the EU's push for \"de-risking,\" stating that it undermines economic stability and growth.
Instead of engaging in a new great power struggle, Daly advocated for a focus on international law and fostering friendly relations with China. She stressed that collaborative efforts are essential for tackling pressing issues like climate change, which require unified action for the well-being of all nations.
Daly's comments resonate with those who believe that maintaining strong international partnerships is crucial for addressing global challenges and ensuring sustainable economic progress.
