Damn, the EU is serious this time, directly preparing to launch a comprehensive trade war with China.

Bloomberg just released a major report on June 3rd, stating that the European Commission held a high-level officials' closed-door meeting last week.
Their public stance is extremely tough, outright warning that previous relations "cannot continue," and that they must take strong new restrictive measures to forcibly reset the imbalance.
Even more astonishing, sources reveal that these EU officials privately fully accept the expectation that "China will retaliate fiercely."
Geopolitical friction is directly moving toward confrontational restrictions, and we can make three clear phased judgments:
Macro shift: The old globalized supply chain dividends are accelerating their clearance, and the traditional model of large-scale cross-border labor shifting and arbitrage based on information gaps will be deeply compressed by 2026.
Cross-border costs: Companies going overseas relying solely on cost-cutting and price competition to gain market share are being blocked by geopolitical barriers, with legal compliance and supply chain uncertainties in transnational operations experiencing a qualitative surge.
New entry shifts: Once physical supply chains are obstructed, it will instead accelerate the push for more pure digital assets, AI automation tools, and decentralized networks to find lighter global distribution channels.
