In December work officially began on a multi-billion-dollar railway through Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan that will link China more closely with Europe, bypassing Russia.
Good on China for establishing redundancy against the Russian clowns.
I get your point, though I am afraid China is by no means a better partner.
That’s true however China is slightly more democratic and doesn’t wage war on their neighbors.
Europe should definitely retool for more manufacturing on the continent to become more self sufficient.

I have to disagree. Although it is true there is no hot war at the moment, China has been increasingly aggressive toward Taiwan and practically all its neighbours (India, Buthan, Nepal, …) as you probably know. But, yes, I fully agree Europe and all others should become more self-sufficient.
