Will that be true in 20 years?
I don’t think China has any interest in dominating the world. All of Eurasia, yes, but nothing overseas.
Japan bombed Pearl Harbor to preemptively keep USA out of the Eastern conflicts. Methinks China learned, and will begin conquest when they’re ready and can avoid US intervention. ...which I’m figuring might be some time next month.
In 20 years? point will be moot.
