You don't understand. There are no "western nations" anymore. It's America First and everyone for themselves. Strong competitors are now a national security issue regardless if we are talking about Mercedes, Huawei or french cheese. Say good-bye to fair competition(if there was ever a such thing). There is nothing conspirational. It's the new foreign policy. China appers in the news b/c it's still the clumsy underdog. U.S has done the hacking and all the spy stuff for decades.
