Mike Gallagher (R-WI) said that America has done the same thing with its dependency on China as Europe did with its dependence on Russia, and \u201cwe need to selectively decouple our economy from China before it\u2019s too late.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gallagher reacted to CIA Director William Burns saying that China has been a \u201csilent partner\u201d with Russia\u2019s aggression in Ukraine by stating, \u201cDirector Burns is right, except it isn\u2019t a silent partnership. Prior to the invasion of Ukraine, Xi and Putin signed a 5,000-word statement proclaiming a partnership without limits. So, Putin is merely becoming Xi\u2019s sadistic sidekick in this new cold war that they have launched against the West. And he will only grow more dependent on China the more he experiences setbacks in Ukraine. So, the lesson for us is at least two-fold: One, we need to recognize who we are dealing with, two brutal dictators that want to destroy the West.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>He continued, \u201cAnd secondly, we need to wean ourselves off of our addiction to cheap Chinese manufacturing. You know, Dana, we\u2019ve been scratching our heads throughout the Ukraine crisis wondering how the Europeans could have gotten themsel[ves] into a position where they\u2019re so dependent on Russia for basic energy resources. Well, we\u2019ve done the same, except with different goods, in terms of our dependency on China. So, if we\u2019re to have a chance of winning this competition, we need to selectively decouple our economy from China before it\u2019s too late.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Ian\u00a0Hanchett on Twitter\u00a0<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IanHanchett\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">@IanHanchett<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday\u2019s broadcast of the Fox News Channel\u2019s \u201cAmerica\u2019s Newsroom,\u201d Rep.
