They can't weasel in on agreements with the EU just by buying routes that were only meant to be flown by EU open skies airlines. Oh and instantly cut their Bank of Boeing subsidy, tarrif their EU Bank of Airbus subsidies if they keep getting them and if they try and "retaliate" like they did with the Canadians for showing them some backbone, pull the 5th fleet immediately, or perhaps send them a padded bill for the service of defending their little "kingdoms"
Then immediately the Japanese government forces all DAL and UAL 5th freedom flying out of NRT to stop. The Chinese government shuts down FedEx's Guangzhou hub; the German government shuts down all 5th freedom flying from Cologne.
Ten years later SF Express of Shenzhen has taken over all UPS and FedEx package flying worldwide. FedEx flight operations is half it's current size. UPS has also reduced their international flying to only to/from USA.
Brilliant Gloopy, pure brilliance!!
