Following the European Commission decision to tax imports of Chinese solar panels, Beijing has decided to launch a probe on European wine imports. And if the 27 do not get the message, other retaliatory measures will follow, warns the Chinese official newspaper.
Yet again, Europe brings its split ranks to the negotiating table. Yet again, Berlin wants to lead with a project different from what the European core wants, and yet again, China will be the winner.
For a long time, prawns were all that Greenland was famous for. However, the melting ice caps mean that natural resources are there for the taking. This development is both a curse and a blessing and one that puts the Danes in a difficult situation.
One out of four Portuguese young people is unemployed. To find work, these youngsters are ready to become expatriates, and the languages they learn before leaving - German, Russian, Chinese or Arabic - draw a map of their new promised lands.

The company was one of the drivers of Germany’s energy turn-about. Today, solar cell manufacturer Q-Cells is the fourth and most symbolic of the solar energy companies to be sliding into bankruptcy. Competitive pressure from China can be blamed, but so too can Berlin’s subsidies policy.
To cut its debt, Portugal’s government has embarked on a far-reaching privatisation program. Brazilian, Chinese and Angolans are the main candidates for taking over its national enterprises.
Economic power is not the only criterion for global power. What matters is how political systems respond to new crises. And from this perspective, the EU is still in with a chance, writes Dutch historian Dirk-Jan van Baar.
