  • macron will probably just talk about trade deals and ignore the human rights stuff like most western leaders do when they visit china, they always say theyll bring it up but then nothing happens, china has been doing this stuff for years and europe keeps doing business with them anyway, the drone thing is especially messed up though chinese companies selling drones to russia that kill ukrainian civilians and we just keep trading with them, its all about money at the end of the day, human rights are just something they mention in press releases to make themselves look good,

    i doubt macron will actually do anything concrete about it, he might say something vague about being concerned but wont actually take action that would hurt trade relations, the supply chain labor abuses are also a huge issue but nobody wants to pay more for stuff so they look the other way, transnational repression is scary too china going after critics even when theyre in france, but yeah macron will probably just shake hands, sign some deals, and come home without really addressing any of this, same old story
