SetsulNone of these are examples of the USA coercing the EU though?
Not sure what you mean with Alstom.
ARM is refering to this one? What does the EU have to do with it?
T-Mobile vs Huawei? Where's the EU involved?
The last time the USA tried was vs Japan and that didn't go to well but pick any example. This isn't zero-sum mercantilism.
Alstom is/has been sold to foreign private interests recently, and was previously 100% french; ARM is a british company forced to comply to US sanctions against China if they do not want problems with doing business with America. It's a form of coercion and political influence to me. US decides who they penalize, everyone must comply.
T-Mobile case vs Huawei was told about in Screwball's source

Is this article a decent source about the trade war you are talking about? I couldnt find much about it.
DiscordYou could possibly argue that China and USA's worldviews are similar, even though I think they are drastically different, but the state of the governments of China and USA are radically different regardless of whether or not you think USA is a joke right now.
As someone who has lived in both countries and have talked to my relatives that live in China and my relatives that have immigrated to the US from China and have put some research into the matter, China is magnitudes more corrupt with a system that is infinitely more broken and harmful to its citizens than the United States. Yes, you may think that America is a complete joke and in utter ruin right now, but comparing the two is basically making a mountain out of a molehill. If you want specifics I can provide them.
In response to the post, I do think Huawei will be fine.
If you have reading material telling how broken and harmful the Chinese system is, i'll read them. Can't say that I know much about China except that its citizens got richer over the last 30 years and that anyone is fine as long as they dont criticize the government (and post pooh memes)
