Europeans require a sober and strategically grounded understanding of China’s long-term behaviour patterns—including how its domestic system drives its international posture, write @abachulska.bsky.social and @ivanakaraskova.bsky.social @ecfrasia.bsky.social

Mr. Xi is trying to strike a “risky diplomatic balance,” hoping that he can exploit divisions in Europe between those who view 🇨🇳 as a threat, and those that view it as a vital business partner. - @abachulska.bsky.social comments on Xi's visit to Russia in @nytimes.com

To craft a smarter China strategy, EU needs more than just Paris and Berlin at the table. @abachulska.bsky.social 's piece shows how Poland—thanks to its economic ties, geopolitical weight, and strategic clarity—can help the EU think bigger & act bolder. @ecfrasia.bsky.social

I'm still grappling with what is unfolding in Seoul tonight, but I would agree with this assessment that this should likely be spelling the end to Yoon's presidency one way or another, the open question being the degree of violence between now and then.
The short of this up front: this is the end of Yoon's presidency. Full stop. He had a razor thin margin in the National Assembly--8 votes I believe--to prevent impeachment. That margin will disappear. The only question is how his presidency will end and how much violence it will entail.
