    Sounds like China’s had enough shit from US at this point. Likely China is also calculating that they’ve decoupled their economy sufficiently that they’re not worried about economic war from the west at this point. That would explain why China’s become a lot more assertive than they used to be this year.

      It’s still not much. China is very hands-off, at least until recently. I think they’re taking things slowly before they put on the gloves, but they’re definitely inching toward them.

      For now, Russia will be U.S.'s main “opponent.”

        Yeah, China tends to do things slowly and deliberately. I don’t expect we’ll see any hot headed reaction from there. They’re definitely getting increasingly more firm in their positions, and we haven’t seen US called out the way China has since the days of USSR now.
