Desk note: Monexus framed this as a German-led European escalation decision, not a Beijing-versus-Washington story. The wire copy so far is consistent across Reuters, Euronews and the analyst commentary; the underlying intelligence, however, has not been disclosed, and we have held the article to what the sources actually say rather than to the stronger versions circulating in some corners of social media.
