The old continent has planted a trade war to China, where the European electric car market is about to be a historic and ridiculous failure. It is the fault of the Chinese, that European electric cars are twice as expensive as their own. What hurts them is that people here, instead of buying the cars of KM.0, which are not entirely from here, which are made many pieces in China, are asking for those from China. As for quality, no one doubts that there are many differences, but to buy the local... The local, it is so fashionable, that Europe also tells us, to wager on the local.

China is said to cheat. In turn, it offers its companies an excess of aid so that they can sell their innovative electric cars at a lower price than anyone else’s in the world. And that's a trap. “Public-private partnership,” which makes the rulers here very hot and stupid. But doing that abroad is a trap.

I am not going to go into whether it is excessive, but we do not need to take a step backwards in the newspaper library to realise that Germany did so until a few months ago. And that wasn't a trap. That was the strategy. Several German companies could sell their electric cars and simply 40% cheaper than the EU Member States. But now China's is a scam. It is not that car sales in Germany have fallen by almost 70% since the aid was abolished...

The European Commission has imposed tariffs on Chinese electric cars because China’s is a trap. Up to 45% in some cases. And that's a lot, a lot of it. It will have a serious economic impact on the citizens’ pockets, as all prices will rise in the name of the recovery of the European economy. I mean, it had a competitive price to buy an electric car, instead of an electric car, which costs twice as much; instead of buying an electric car, people were betting on diesel. In other words, the "challenge" of the climate emergency will be held later in Europe, when it returns to the economy.

First of all, the important things. Relax in the energy transition and in the restoration of the green economy. Make Europe Great Again.

And Make Bilbao Great Again. We have just been announced a direct airline between Bilbao and New York... and not, expressly, because the novel by Kirmen Uribe has been read too seriously by everyone. At ease for hotels, we now lack taxis, that's what the newscast tells us at night. Cars, cars and cars, instead of going to New York, it's clear where the hotline is going.
