Warfare with China is pretty inevitable while the US and its allies aims for containment and control over china's access to the Pacific ocean and shipping lanes.
China has a strategic need for ocean access, regardless of who is in charge, and everyone else is looking for a military confrontation on that.
If china controlled the whole US east coast's access to the Atlantic ocean, and the US needed Chinese permission to go to sea, the US would have attacked already
- lixtra 4y agoWhen were Chinese shipping lanes threatened by the west last time? A potential threat does not count. China potentially threatens the destruction of the west coast by nukes, so by your argument the US should have gone to war long ago if potential threats count.
