I am grateful to South China Morning Post SCMP for publishing my piece within 12 hours. My intention was to get this out before Janet Yellen arrives in Beijing tomorrow. Her well-intentioned visit will not be a panacea for the current conflicts between the United States and China. Instead, the visit represents a positive initial step, providing the two countries with an opportunity to reassess and develop more effective strategies for peaceful engagement. Here are the highlights: As the US-China tech war escalates loudly, no one wins * For decades, the US and China engaged in strategic ambiguity to keep their relationship stable, but both are now openly targeting global leadership * By ramping up their rhetoric and acting with explicit intent, the two countries are not only inflicting economic pain but also increasing the chances of a hot war #china #opportunity #leadership #engagement #tech #techwars #strategies #games #wargames #ucla #uclaanderson #usa #semiconductors #rareearths #supplychain #globaleconomy #geopolitics https://lnkd.in/gRP6_WQ9
