Its bad but I do remember that the United States led the moves to open up China in the 1970’s starting with RIchard NixOn and Henry Kissinger.
And look what China was become 40 years later....
It’s possible that China was going to rise no matter what Nixon, Clinton, and others did, but that doesn’t mean they had to help speed the process. China is, after all, the most populous country in the world, and we’re the only nation in the world that can balance their growing power. Too bad we’re turned inward.
