COLOR ME CURIOUS?
I don’t understand why this matters. China is far more dependent on ME oil than the west ever was. Why not have them fulfill the role? It’s been a sink for us.
Can they displace the dollar? For how much of the world? If long term is as expected, neither China nor any other of these countries are viable.
Is this a military or strategic issue? Well not really, because all our allies are dependent upon seas, and not the ‘world island’. We can siege china from a distance if we lost Taiwan. And do it long enough it doesn’t matter.
IMO I see this as a rational choice by all parties that’s practical.
I don’t see any long-term threat.
I do see a military threat from the remaining ‘corrupt empires’ of Russia, Iran, and China. And I do see a political marketplace for an authoritarian network of countries to work together vs a network of modern countries to work together.
Please correct me if I err.
Thanks. 😉
