Gina Raimondo, a Distinguished Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, has criticized the current US administration's approach to China, highlighting its detrimental impact on alliances with Europe and other global partners. Raimondo emphasized the necessity of strengthening alliances to effectively compete with China's economic and technological influence. She noted that European patience with US military contributions is waning, and the administration's strategy is straining these crucial relationships. Raimondo also pointed out the significant threats posed by China's economic strategies to European industries, particularly Germany's industrial base. She stressed the importance of international collaboration to address supply chain vulnerabilities and warned against Europe cozying up to China, which she views as risky for both Europe and the global community. Raimondo called for a reevaluation of the US's China strategy to prioritize and strengthen alliances, which are essential for addressing global security and economic challenges.
