That bag of cards held by the West is somewhat mixed when it comes (trade) war. I see mostly interdependence between countries, similar to those present at the eve of WW1. War was unlikely as no-one had a lot to gain and everyone had a lot to lose. Still it happened.
I definitely would not want to be in the trenches with foreign students, financial professionals, saas consultants, venture capitalists, intellectual property lawyers and probably won't care much for human rights or free elections.
Let's hope we find a way not repeat the WW1 part of history, somehow...
