Trump tremble, Xi Rumble.

On the night of October 30, China announced export controls on rare metals, including tungsten and antimony, which account for 80% and 70% of global exports, respectively.
 
I dislike this old fart Mearsheimer, but he is right that China has leverage over the US.
 
you mean he's obsessed with hui girls too?
he is very wary of china. He thinks thev west should be friendly to russua in order To isolate china. Now its too late as russia and china are like abang adik.
It is china the west should be worried about.

In the battle between him (pro-US) and Jeff Sachs (pro-China), I am on Team Sachs. Sachs can see what's going on, can see reality but Mearsheimer is so blinkered, has such a closed mind, and so fearful of the chinaman. For a highly educated man, he sure is dumb. But it's good to see him admit here that China has the upper hand.

Jeffrey Sachs is all for peaceful progress together. cooperating.in unison.
Mersheimer wants the west to lead. Be the only captain.destroy or curtail any potential rival.
Indeed previously it has been so as per mersheimer. Japan was curtailed at its height. And Ukraine adventure was in my opinion, to curtail both russia and germany as when merkel was in charge both were too friendly. And powerful economically. If russia and germany were to unite, it would rival US in all department. They used Ukraine as proxy to destroy that friendship.

The US withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 was aimed at reallocating resources to the Indo-Pacific region. However, the Russia-Ukraine conflict in 2022 shifted US priorities, forcing a focus on Europe as managing two fronts simultaneously became unfeasible. This provides China with an advantage over the US, Europe, and Russia, as they remain preoccupied with addressing their conflicts. Western and U.S. sanctions on Russia have strengthened its trade ties closer with China.
 
The conflict in Ukraine and gaza has depleted US weapons stockpile. It does not have sufficient weaponry if there is a conflict with china. And US weapons manufacturing are still post glasnost era where there is no big power threat. Replenishing weapons and ammo too slowly.

Yes, he wants the US to remain as the sole global hegemon despite its declining influence, and sees it as a right/a duty for them to fight off any challenges. He's pro anarchy and pro-war.

This is a good article criticizing his view point.
