China poses a serious threat to liberal democracies, aiming to assert the hegemony of the Chinese Communist Party and create a new world order. Strengthening alliances and countering China's influence through both hard power and smart power is crucial. The US must also support democratic institutions and consolidate the region's democratic infrastructure in Asia. Keeping the authoritarian axis from becoming a full-fledged alliance should be America's priority. Democracies should keep their nerve against dictators, as they are more brittle than they look. The US needs to change its thinking about China and let go of post-Cold War triumphalism. China's vision for a transformed world order challenges American exceptionalism, and the US must articulate its own vision. The US strategy for all-round competition with China includes decoupling, geopolitics, militarization, and ideology-based diplomacy. Aggressive deterrence is necessary to prevent China from displacing American hegemony. #China #US #democracy #alliances #geopolitics #exceptionalism...
