The Greater Eurasia project: Building bridges and breaking barriers — Pepe Escobar

If you're counting on Asia's many new power centers to compete and clash – don't. The Greater Eurasia Partnership is set to integrate them all – from the SCO, EAEU, and BRICS, to emerging new currencies – in order to replace the 'rules-based order [my-way-or-the highway].'

Mutually beneficial trade requires respect-my-sovereignty-or-the-highway.

I don't expect larger, stronger economies to voluntarily relinquish their economic clout. So they will compete, drive hard bargains, and do exactly what is being done today.

There's more to the rules-based order than American interventionism. The ideology of globalism has long been its principle component. China is a true believer in this approach. And why wouldn't they? Their economic rise is attributable to it.

Joe Biden should tell the American people that.

And then run for Xi's job.
