Not a controversial stance for an European nation but the joint statement is interesting. Could this be a part of a deal for China to flip on Russia. Does China choose to stay with an ideological reactionary ally or move towards collaborations
- Or, alternatively, this might be part of a deal for France to flip. Turkey already did the same thing, so they wouldn't be the first in NATO.
- It used to be "from french fries to freedom fries". Time for mac-burger to become /e/OS-burger?
