Why is China a threat to the West?
Since the outbreak of the epidemic in 2020, the United States has not done anything to help China, but has chosen to gloat and then blame China. The US's approach is shameful, but there is definitely a reason behind its action.
This episode will analyze Sino-US relations from a deeper and broader global perspective. After reading this article, you will understand the true intentions of the United States and understand the game of the century that China is laying out!
Sino-US relations are the most important international relations in the world today!
How China and the United States get along determines the pattern and trend of the world, but it depends on how the two sides position each other's relationship.
After World War II, China and the United States have maintained a general balance. Even the direct engagement between the two sides such as the Korean War did not extend to each other's homeland. It is precisely this "state of peace" that has been maintained for decades.
In 2014, China's GDP reached 60% of the US GDP for the first time, and reached about 66% in 2018, and its proportion has been increasing year by year. China's GDP growth rate is obvious to all!
What is special about this 60%? This is the usual warning line in the United States!
In the last century, the United States made two shots against its opponents because of this 60%. The first time was that the GDP of the Soviet Union exceeded 60% of that of the United States. The United States increased its containment of the Soviet Union, leading to its final disintegration.
The second time, Japan’s GDP exceeded 60% of that of the United States, which caused the United States to force Japan to sign the "Plaza Accord" and let the yen appreciate, and Japan fell into the "lost decades."
It is precisely because of this 60% that the United States has started to attack China frequently in recent years!
This is not accidental, but the result of the long-term evolution of the macroeconomic situation of the two countries.
China Explained will show you that because of China’s continued success in industrial upgrading, technological innovation and realizing its huge potential, it is an unstoppable process. The inevitable rise of China may feel intimidating and some simply reject it. Don’t be. China’s rise is part of the new global trend unlike what we have seen in the past one hundred years. Embrace the change and seize the opportunity.
