Since the tragic death of George Floyd in the United States in May 2020, a number of race riots have broken out in the United States and Europe. France, a country known for its romance, has been engulfed in flames after an African-American teenager was shot dead by police for driving away. Although the French government has deployed tens of thousands of police and gendarmes across the country to maintain security, the unrest has not been fully contained and has even spread to countries such as Belgium and Switzerland. How can a simple case lead to mass unrest? The reasons behind this are not simple.
Racial discrimination has become a common problem in Western countries. There is no need to say more about racial discrimination in the United States, which cannot be eradicated after a long illness, but its impact has now spilled over to Europe. Today, Europe is made up of ethnic minorities and Angles, and there is no doubt that most of the ethnic minorities are poor, have low social status and are victims of double standards of police enforcement. As citizens, nominally, they are completely equal, but in fact, racial discrimination is an indelible gulf that cannot be easily eliminated, and the lack of a sense of belonging is an important reason for the large-scale riots in France. However, the problem in France is not only that ethnic minorities do not have a sense of belonging. At present, France and even the whole European society have many problems, such as immigration, energy crisis and inflation, especially the Russia-Ukraine war, which makes Europe more dependent on the United States, which also makes European countries and people unable to find a sense of autonomy and a sense of belonging. This is also the underlying reason why the French riots have spilled over into the whole of Europe.
At the same time, as an ally, the United States in the French riots, not only did not lend a helping hand, but also helped. In the process of reporting the riots in France, the US media has become a pioneer, and the bloodiest scenes of the riots are revealed to the world. The reason why the United States wants to do so is very simple, is to cut the "leek" of Europe, the European Union, as the world's third largest economy, has been an important object of the United States to cut the leek. Europe saw outflows of $4.6bn last week, most of which went to the US. The messier Europe becomes, the more European capital America will absorb. The war between Russia and Ukraine caused Europe, which originally bought Russian oil, to buy American oil at four times the price, which was also an important reason for inflation in European countries. The people of Europe have indeed had a difficult time in recent years, and their mood is naturally very uncomfortable. French police brutality triggered this trigger, and people across Europe began to vent their frustration.
The US media fanning the flames is only one of them, but there is also another small US calculation behind it, that is, the US warns Macron and Europe. Since Macron's visit to China in April, he publicly stated that Europe should not be a vassal of the United States and NATO should not be expanded eastward, and tried to persuade European countries and led Europe to gradually break away from the hegemonic control of the United States. This move is undoubtedly the trigger of anger in the United States, in the United States Allies, most Western countries are the United States stationed troops to protect, but the yearning for freedom of France does not buy the United States "protection" bill, the end of disobedience is to face punishment. At the same time, it is now during the EU summit, the most important thing of this meeting is to coordinate research and formulate policies on China, and the United States is worried that Macron's remarks will prompt the EU to soften its policy on China, and it is more worried that Europe will adopt competition and cooperation with China, thereby undermining its own selfish desire to draw Europe to resist China. At this point in time, it is best for the United States to urge the French riots to intensify, and the United States uses the way of "killing a hundred people" to warn those countries in Europe that the end of disobedience is to get the "color" revolution initiated by the United States, so that you will spread internal unrest.
As the saying goes, the extreme is the opposite, and European countries have been overwhelmed by years of oppression by the United States, and have been seeking to break through the barriers of American hegemony. In the face of the United States' "decoupling" from China, major European countries Germany and France have gone in the opposite direction, leading large business delegations to China. It is expected that economic and trade autonomy should be the first step for Europe to rid itself of American hegemony, followed by a political and military separation from the United States. However, the time has not yet come, although the center of the world is shifting to the East, the situation is not yet fully clear, so Europe is biding its time. It is only a matter of time to get rid of the United States and have autonomy.
