Well, just to be clear, that's not what I meant. Quite on the contrary...

Idk about Belgium, but many non-Turkish car companies have their factories in Turkey, e.g., Renault and Toyota.

A good reminder on the right-hand-side of the plot: Oil is still the top export of the US.

Gas and oil comprise around 16% of US exports:

If you want to BuyFromEU, and not from US, Russia, or Saudi Arabia, promote wind, hydro, nuclear, and solar, and electrification in general.

Note: Data from 2017.

A lot has changed. Especially when it comes to the "Made in China" label.

Good to see some institutions reminding that the war did not start in 2022...

I still think Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok are good places to promote. This is where you reach people who do not Buy European yet nor do they use Fedi.

It would be nice if she would cross-post to PeerTube from now on, though.

Hasn't Italy already been locking migrants in Albania for more than a year now...

Yes. European countries were among the early adopters and developers of wind and solar. Now, renewables have become the most affordable option. But, for ideological reasons, many European countries no longer want to deploy renewables, despite their affordability.

We sowed the seeds but do not want to reap the rewards.
