Yu Yongding — How Trump Is Helping China

China's leaders have long known that the economy has outgrown the world market, and is desperately in need of rebalancing. But, thanks to Donald Trump’s trade war, they are now pursuing that goal with a new sense of urgency, suggesting that US pressure may well end up being a blessing in disguise for China.

They said the same with Russia as the sanctions are making it diversify. Everything seems to be backfiring inn the Western aristocracy, I hope this doesn't make them desperate.

The neoliberals are said to be social liberals and economic hawks, i.e, very right wing when it comes to business. But true liberals would not be so distrusting of foreign powers.

I guess the hawks in the West see the hawks in the East and see enemies.
