Much welcomed news to see agreement on the ACI! A crucial instrument in the EU’s toolbox to defend the Single Market against coercion from the PRC and other malign actors
RT @VDombrovskis: Reaching agreement on the EU anti-coercion tool is truly important for & economy.

In a complex & increasingly hostile world, we need to defend ourselves & our values when others do not play by the rules.

It is a vital building block for our economic security.

Yey another despicable terrorist act by the Kremlin

RT @lukedepulford: This is utterly outrageous, shameless behaviour from @HSBC

The bank has been allowed to become an instrument of Beijing’s repression. This has gone way too far.

Utterly shocking. But considering the amount of warning that was communicated from the intelligence community, I find it hard to believe that it’s mere negligence
RT @remkorteweg: Wow 👀

Port of Hamburg (and 🇩🇪 German government) realised too late that the terminal it was planning to sell to China was critical infrastructure.

If confirmed, this is economic security negligence on a massive scale

Bravo! Beijing should hear such words from every European capital.

The only trouble is that the CCP’s understanding of national security is oppressing and terrorising its own people, and coercing third countries that reject the PRC’s malign influence
