China The Most Dangerous Foreign Threat to the US since World War II

China’s growing power is a fact that cannot be ignored. However, the extent to which it poses a threat to US interests is a topic of debate.

On the one hand, former UN ambassador Nikki Haley’s concerns about China are shared by many experts who assert that the country aims to reshape the world order to its advantage. China’s territorial disputes, military buildup in the South China Sea, and human rights violations are also points of concern.

Nevertheless, some experts argue that China is not an existential threat to the United States. The Pentagon’s 2020 report on China’s military power, for example, recognizes China’s growing global influence but emphasizes that it does not pose a direct military threat to the US. Some also argue that the US-China competition can be managed through diplomacy and dialogue, rather than confrontation.

Haley’s criticism of Trump and Biden is also open to debate. While some experts agree that both presidents have taken a tougher stance against China recently, others contend that their approaches were misguided. Trump’s trade war, for instance, hurt American exporters, while Biden’s main problem is in rallying the international community to join the US in confronting China.

In short, whether China is the most dangerous foreign threat to the US since World War II remains a matter of perspective. What is clear, however, is that the US must engage in a careful and strategic relationship with China. The challenge for the US will be to balance its economic and security interests with its democratic values.
