"President Joe Biden might have been as keen as Trump to antagonize China and to withdraw from the world economy into a protectionist crouch, but he also understood that taking on rivals as powerful and resourceful as China requires strengthening the country’s most significant friendships, not dismantling them. Driven by disdain for the alliances, norms and institutions that shaped the West after World War II, Spanky seems to believe that America is strong enough to bully its partners. Every ally he casts aside, however, is a win for Moscow and Beijing."
