It is a good thing that UK is out of EU. Now you don’t have a US proxy in EU to influence policies.

I think it is the UK that needs to decide for itself who it wants to trade with and to prosper with. You have freed yourself from the ‘shackles’ of the EU but do you now want to be shackled by the US?

说得非常好，是一个值得收藏的视频。谢谢你们的贡献。

If the US has to work THIS hard just to contain the PRC on its traditional home turf (EU & LATAM), then its hegemony is already crumbling, & the end of US hegemony can't come too soon for the world, & even for the average American people themselves.

Excellent analysis. Thanks.

John is here to market Britain to China as China's friendly economic partner as he knew UK is in deep deep deep shit! Britain's hope of securing an FTA with the US is diminished and Britain needs an FTA with China to increase Britain's leverage with Britain's negotiation with EU on the Brexit. This talk was in 2019 and unfortunately, Boris Johnson had screwed up further by banning Huawei from Britain's 5G infrastructure. John's effort is going to be wasted. John is the economic advisor to Ken Livingstone when Ken was Mayor of London and John is also eyeing on the offshore RMB market for London and he is here to do damage control so that it will give London a big piece of the RMB cake in future. It is so obvious that RMB is the near future major global reserve currency overtaking the greenbacks in within the next ten years. There is no stopping of the decline of the greenbacks with US money printing habits and shrinking economic power. I still think this is a very good talk which clearly explain the political situation between US, China, UK, Germany & EU.

Just wonderful. Extremely wonderful explanation of geopolitics and geoeconomics. Thanks great person wonderful talks.

英國就是為美國脫勾的恓牲品，也是美國達到目的，不讓歐盟強大，好對付，為了利益，英國首相真聽話，保重英國將來的前程😇😇😇🙄😔

He offered a very fresh, unique view of Brexit and the Americans' effort to counter China's growing influence in European countries.

We are seeing a repetition of Dumb and Dumber.

Good speech!

Then UK should signs free trade agreement with China first then lastly with the US.

I watched this entire episode very carefully. Although the content indicates that this lecture was given in 2019, it is still very informative and educational today near the end of 2020. Few domestic media in China have analyzed the behaviour of Trump administration on such a global and comprehensive basis. In summary, this episode is a very reasonable interpretation of Trump's motives.

最后提到的印度，我觉得非常重要，我们地区低估了印度的崛起，千万不能小瞧他们的实力，和我们跟他们合作以后的收益。在未来印度也会是我们一个非常难办的对手。

Diaper Don and Bojo Baby. How did he know China has not been taking Brexit seriously? Complete rot. Anyway Trump is history now. Bojo will not have a second term.

讲的非常清晰，值得收藏，谢谢

一場非常中肯的評論，是一位值得尊敬的學者！

With lot of inside knowledge. Learn lot. Thanks 👍

还是很喜欢这位学者的，正如他所说，英国不可能也没有必要站在中国的立场上想问题。但至少政局的混乱是阶级分化，导致政客仅仅从个人或者小集团政治利益考虑，甚至有悖于本国民众的福祉。 接下来要看的是美国换届后是否还会进行这种无耻的无端的对中国的打压，当然经过trump我们应该清楚认识到美帝的核心价值观，深刻理解“求同存异”的深层含义。

Very informative. Thank you so much

Enjoyed your presentation. Very clear and precise.

I am really enjoyed this topic . John Ross!!

Thank you for a very insightful analysis of the underlying Chinese-Britain-USA relationship.

thank u Mr Ross...for telling the truth 🎯🎖👍

That’s some high level politics. No matter where you are, whether you like it or not, the media is feeding you reasons to do something. And who influence the media and control what to say? Mostly politician

I think people I UK should hear your talk . And open their eyes more.

這個內容太好了。世界的局勢，我們可以了解更多。

Great lecture.

He has done a great job, well said. 👍👍👍👍

This is very insightful, many thanks for sharing.

Great analysis. Thanks you for this excellent speech!

Very enlightening

Very insightful

条理清晰 也挺有意思

this guy is spot on.

western 'advanced' mentality : i am up....bcz I push you down. 1000 years history...the best teacher 🎯

👍👍👍 Intellectual scholar ！

this is one extraodinary analysis on Brexit, and international politics.

醍醐灌顶

I didn't realize Johnson was so dependant on serving Trump's interests. Now that Trump is no longer going to be president after January 2021, where does that leave Johnson?

They all have the right to break off with USA. If they don't want to then they can break off and do as they please.

Interesting. I have always wonder why Brexit for UK?

缜密的思辨，严谨的学统，这是大英帝国的落日余晖映照在罗老身上的印记。讽刺的是罗老用它来分析自己母国无法避免的进一步式微

UK was the mother of United States. The child has kicked the mother in the groin, not just once during The Independence War, and now again decades later. UK is done, a vassal state. Germany is very strategic, they know that only by not taking sides, they can remain strong. Although Brexit has happened, the fact remains that UK still depends on EU for much of its trade. In the long term, US may have won a political pawn in UK, but economically it will still lose. The pieces have being set on the board long ago as one can see, the Belt and Road map does not show that it includes North, South American continents. Any areas that decides to join the Belt and Road when they are not even on the map is simply going to be a bonus.

While the analysis around GDP and trade expansion is cute, the success of economy is not to increase any number, but the lives of all living in it. From this pov, the US is the richest country in the world but really becoming a failed state with or without China, and China should never make the same mistake

一場這麼精彩的演說，為什麼等了一年才發布？講解得實在精彩透切，實在好!

thanks for the sharing.. now i understand the game us and china is playing.....

这种历史视频发出来请标注下演讲时间可以吗？

believe me, uk would definitely go back to eu if they feel lost after brexit. they are so pragmatic!

Boris should not be as stupid as Trudeau. If Boris enters into an agreement with US like NAFTA, literally UK will be at the mercy of the US; it would be worst than being under the EU. The whole point of Brexit is to be independent and not be a lapdog to the US or the EU. If I were Boris I will dance around the issue of signing anything with the US like the NAFTA.

Good analysis. I hope the Brits will be smart enough to look after its own intetests.

Its really confusing. From around 8:00 to 10:00, it goes something like this: "Conservative party got over 40% vote." and "With 40% vote you can be elected as a government of the country (Britain), but the Brexit party led by Farage got 30% vote on European election, and Tory party got 9% of the vote. In other words, Brexit party can destroy the votes of conservative party." How does the European election affect the election on internal UK's election? How can Farage remove an elected Prime minister from power? It is so confusing to understand.

LOLOLOL The Brits being played as saps by the dear friend Uncle Sam.

After Brexit, it will be Scotland and Iris exit out of the UK. Brexit is the beginning end of the British Empire.

受教了

This is President Trumps view on Brexit, my understanding is the general political US view was always that they liked the UK being in the EU as it gave them more influence and meant it was more US centric. So the EU could well become more China focussed. I also hoped this for the UK but Boris seems to have other ideas.

一個癲 一個喪，地球有福氣。

There is someone out here who is clear-minded. I was so worried everybody went crazy.

Even it`s relate to China, there is nothing we can do

一年多前的視頻，已揭示了英國首相幾乎完全受特朗普操控，但1月20日後會否有所改變？

瓦解欧州付合美国的利益。

👍

罗思义过于关注英国脱欧，英国对中国经济的影响。而没有考虑脱英之后的欧盟对中国的影响是怎么样的了。他总体讲中国要放开视野去开发欧洲跟南美的经济市场。但这次英国的脱欧何尝不是英国在这百年未有之大变局中送给中国最好的礼物呢？

John Ross ' s very transparent presentation helps me understand how the golden friendship between China and the UK would have truly raised the UK' status in world trade. Osbourne and Cameron had the wise support of the Queen and Theresa May is firmly British. Boris is Sooo - oh oh dear... Such a lapdog with no foresight? I knew there's a struggle Inn the UK... which leader would even want to be associated with the post election truth of what Trump is about? Is such a shame that after Xi visit, the UK had a no. 1 place to cooperate closely with China. Cameron had left the UK with some great - getting the membership for the AIIB. India? Have you really had a look into the negligence, dirt and shocking lack of sanitation and help for the poor? We should get Cameron and Osborne back into running the government. Regarding China and popularity in the U S.... China. Is loved by many institutions, important people and the. American people.

我听说，欧盟的新税收政策让好多英国富豪无法避税，所以脱欧。开征时间就是今年，所以去年必须脱。不知真假。

talk too much，do little！this is western wolf，world

Scotexit, Walexit, and Ulsterexit, and so forth, are coming.

这个演讲是一年前的吧

Celebrate the independence of the European Union. Anglo Saxon always put his hand in other people's homes.

想當第51州，做夢嗎？ 51州加拿大 52州墨西哥 53州或許是 台灣

口才好啊，一顿分析就凸显出英国在中美博弈里的重要关系，问题是事实如此之后，我们是否要花费精力到已经靠向美国的英国呢？能拉过来吗？

普通人只看到了第一层，而我在第5层，教授一直讲卡梅隆和梅姨，其实是想告诉中国，英国的政治已经失控了，需要中国帮助一下欧洲亲中的政治领袖，不能放任让美国一手遮天，对欧洲主权不好，对中国的利益也同样不好，我们不能因为中国国内不受影响，而忽略更广阔的全球化

I don't understand why Britain didn't make Mr. John a Prime Minister.

讲五毛那段也太可爱了吧哈哈哈

印度的精英群很值得關注

谢谢，英国毕竟当过世界老大，视野很开阔

以外國人的身份看待英脫歐更具參考價值。

聽完覺得香港問題會不會也是為了惡化中英關係的一步棋

字幕太小了

UK will be the 52nd state of the USA, not 51st, coz Canada is.

British used to be Empire in centre. Subsequently People at centre and recently Political party is central over everything, blinded huge prospect of UK. At sometime China tried to set foundation for international Chinese RMB in GB, it short lived by hidden hand. After Brexit, 5G and HSBC incident UK means nothing for RMB, hopefully USD stays. Alternatively China having its LAW blueprint quite similar to Germany coupled with German's liberal and fair bileteral relation. Germany vigilant and genius loci could be the base of Chinese belt and road morphosis in EU. German could be China's best partnership candidate, how US would influence German's politics we shall see in near future.

没记错的话，脱欧公投不是在卡梅隆任期内被f发起的么，怎么好像两个接盘的成了主要责任人呢

能感觉到罗老的失望。感觉某种程度上罗老是个理想主义者，并非认同中国而是认同中国对于一个制度的探索

好像台灣政壇

The big bully will fall to the ground very heavily this time

西洋人學習中國文化也會變聰明，回頭看西洋政體就容易看到問題

The whole point is that the US has a currency problem since early 2000 already !! ... First the US was very much in favour of the creation of the European Union simply because of the currency change to the Euro which artificially strengthened the USD, besides that it would have a voice in establishing the rules between European Union and the US. Now the USD is under a lot of pressure because of all the bubbles created in the housing, technology, banking, import/export markets in the US and the fierce competition of China as a global independent player !! To get out of trouble it needs countries to leave the EU but without weakening the Euro which will devalue the USD directly as a result. Brexit was a good move for the US because Britain wasn't part of the European monetary system, but only if Britain decides to be on the side of the US. The US would need Germany as well to surpass the economic power of China, but if Germany leaves the EU it will weaken the Dollar significantly. The only out for the US is HOPE !! Hope that after Brexit other countries will follow suit and the EU will be dismantled and that countries like Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France will chose sides in its favour !! If this cenário would become reality I'm not so sure if these countries will choose the US in a free trading market, and maybe they shouldn't !!

because of china??? more like the US!!!

好老的视频

算是很透彻的分析吧。但是怎么看我总觉得更像是一个英国学者得悲鸣，至于英国怎么样对中华帝国得影响力，个人看日渐式微吧，无非我们就是面对一个51个州的美国，还是52个州的美国而已，区别不是特别大。但对你们自我感觉高高在上的英国精英来说可就是做哈巴狗还是独立自主的国家的区别了。

说明了民主政治的龌龊
