The European economy has not yet become "hot-headed."

Last week, the European Central Bank raised interest rates again, a passive response by Europe under the impact of energy supply shocks. At present, the foundation for economic recovery in the eurozone is still not solid. Inflation is mainly driven by external energy prices, and core prices and consumer demand have not risen across the board. However, at a time when the economic outlook is full of uncertainty, some European politicians, driven by industrial anxiety, are treating China-related trade and economic issues as an outlet to divert contradictions, attempting to use ultimatum-style political pressure to extract unilateral concessions. This approach not only fails to help resolve the structural problems of trade imbalances, but may also bring additional shocks to Europe's already fragile economy.
