Un ex alto funcionario de EE.UU. dijo que trabajar estrechamente con países afines sigue siendo la estrategia más efectiva para contrarrestar a una China cada vez más poderosa, en marcado contraste con las políticas del presidente de EE.UU. Donald Trump. Admitió que la administración de Joe Biden cometió algunos errores clave que minaron su propia efectividad.

Kurt Campbell, actual presidente de la consultora Asia Group, habló en un evento patrocinado por la revista Foreign Policy. Advirtió que el enfoque de China del presidente Donald Trump tiene contradicciones inherentes. En ocasiones, Trump parece ansioso por forjar una relación completamente nueva entre EE.UU. y China basada en acuerdos comerciales que beneficien “a él y a Estados Unidos”. En otras, parece querer una pausa para acumular reservas estadounidenses de minerales críticos y fortalecer el ejército de EE.UU.
