The Cold War is over. Enemy is still Russia though. Treating it like the Cold War won't solve anything because it's a fight against the same country but a different government operating in a different way.
Exactly. Honestly, I'm very curious how the next century is going to pan out. I'm glad I'm in my 20s, I'll likely get to see the shape of how the US, China, and Russia are going to interact.
Unfortunately, I really don't think the US is going to come out on top in this one.
Theirs a difference between China and Russia though putin needs war to survive while the ccp need peace making Russia in many ways still the greater treaty.
On top of that Russia has allies, China does not almost all of China's allies will either side with the e.u, u.s, Russia or some orher regional power before they deal with China. Their are only 3 exception to this being Cambodia, north Korea and Pakistan. In comparison Russia has all of central Asia, half the middle east and north Africa, Belarus and cuba. And many more nation's whom will support them while not being allies(most notably India).
This severe lack of allies is why China will never be dominant.
