The escalating tensions between the United States and China have created a strained global atmosphere. The trade war, initiated by the Trump administration in 2018, has led to tit-for-tat tariffs and economic retaliation, disrupting global supply chains and markets. Amidst the trade dispute, military tensions have also intensified, with both countries engaging in military exercises and maneuvers in the contested South China Sea and Taiwan Strait. The potential for military conflict has heightened concerns, particularly given the advanced military capabilities of both nations. The ongoing rivalry between the US and China, the world's two largest economies, has far-reaching implications for global trade, security, and stability, demanding diplomatic efforts to de-escalate tensions and find avenues for cooperation.
