Kishore Mahbubani challenges some of the most deeply rooted assumptions behind America’s confrontation with China.
Why should stopping China be considered a measure of American success? Is Washington so focused on preventing China’s relative rise that it has lost sight of improving life for Americans at home?
Mahbubani’s broader argument is surprisingly simple: America does not need to destroy or contain China to compete with it. It needs to strengthen itself.
And perhaps the real competition between the two countries will not be decided by military power at all but by which system can provide a better life for its own people.
Do you think the U.S. and China are heading toward a new Cold War, or will both sides eventually choose cooperation?

If China becomes richer while Americans also become richer, is America really “losing”? Or has geopolitics become so obsessed with being #1 that improving people’s actual lives has become secondary?
And looking ahead, what do you think happens next?
A new U.S. China Cold War or eventually more cooperation? 👇
