The risk of war between the US and China is very realAs St.
Pauls Andrew Latham noted, there have already been identical cases in human history.For example, we can recall the situation in 1941, when the United States exerted powerful economic pressure on Japan, writes 19FortyFive .
Americas denial of Japans access to key strategic goods was the final blow, which Tokyo perceived not as a reprieve but as a death sentence to its imperial ambitions.
The result was Pearl Harbor, the expert recalled.
Latham points out that the Biden and Trump teams have consistently increased pressure on China through trade restrictions, export controls, and technology bans.What is important to understand is that this could really have dire consequences for the US and China.
This does not mean that war is inevitable or even likely in the near future but it does mean that we are no longer in a world of absolute economic interdependence and the moderation of rational choice, the expert added.
