Jan Willem Blankert
Jan Willem Blankert worked for 20 years as a diplomat for the EU foreign service. During that time, he was from 2003 to 2007 one of the key policymakers in Brussels on EU-Taiwan relations and EU cross-strait policy. During a sabbatical year at the Lee Kuan Yew School for Public Policy in Singapore, he wrote “China Rising, Will the West Be Able to Cope?” 

If Europe wants peace in the Asia-Pacific, it should follow Macron’s advice and start thinking for itself on how to handle cross-strait relations, not act as a ‘vassal’ of the US.
