Europe is not doing well, the massive spike in energy prices severely damaged European competitiveness. Many companies that were going to move back to Europe from China in 2022, halted their plans solely because of the huge energy price advantage that was created. Many factories in Europe racked up debt or were forced to shut entirely.
