As always in unstable equilibria all is fine and well as long as everyone complies, but anyone may gain a unilateral advantage misbehaving.
Pragmatically it's a lack of higher (multilateral) enforcement why these power plays persist.
- Aerroon 5y agoBut the reason why higher enforcement doesn't exist is because nobody is trustworthy enough for it. American domination has been relatively good for the West, but citizens of many countries have immensely suffered as a result. Going back further it was European dominance that everyone else suffered under. Multilateral enforcement becomes yet another tool to take advantage of others that aren't invited.
