additional property: How the Spin Works
  type: PropertyValue
  value: It leverages the ECB’s institutional credibility to signal geopolitical risk, while using vague, unattributed language ('key sectors', 'can feed') to avoid empirical accountability. The framing makes the causal chain feel intuitive and urgent, even though the article offers zero evidence linking specific Chinese aid programs to actual trade disputes — creating a plausible-but-unverified narrative that privileges institutional authority over evidentiary rigor.
