My latest for Global Times.
The Cold War: The first time as tragedy, the second as farce.
This is not the postwar world, China is not the USSR, and the US is not what it was.
#Opinion
: The US is fighting a war it has already lost. Clinging to Cold War delusions amid its collapsing domestic order, the US is pitting itself not just against China but against a second era of decolonization. This time it’s farce.
