💬"The United States has now got itself some very powerful enemies. Leave aside the European Parliament, which is not one. But it's in a confrontation with China. China's an extremely powerful state. It's got the largest working class in the entire world. It's growing during the pandemic. It's growing three times as fast as the United States. It has a much higher level of investment than The United States. It is a very big, powerful enemy."

💬"The problem is that the European capitalist class, let's call them by their proper name, are not prepared to stand up to the United States. So therefore, you have a big attack on the population. Now you have big negative indirect effects because the governments which are pursuing this becoming drastically unpopular. For example, now Germany under pressure of the United States, has just wrecked its economy. It's having to pay higher prices for energy. It's supporting a war which is very, very damaging. It's now been attacked by the US subsidies. So the government in Germany is going to become extremely unpopular. And I could add a list of countries to that." John Ross, author, economist and senior fellow of the Chongyang Institute said.

💬"I mean, the United States has now created chaos in the European continent. You've got the highest inflation for 40 years. You've got a major war going on. The living standard of the population of the countries declining. And the only way out of this situation is for the Europe to declare its independence from the United States. But unfortunately, that's not what the European governments are doing. De facto the United States has acknowledged with its subsidies that the whole sort of a free market policy which is been saying this gospel for the last 40 years is a lot of rubbish and has collapsed." John Ross, author, economist and senior fellow of the Chongyang Institute said.
