The Financial Times published a commentary article by Ivan Kostev on January 16th, stating that Trump is making the world fall in love with China. Countries that once saw American success as their own success now view the United States as an adversary and Beijing as a model.
[Witty] Comment: Trump is merely a catalyst for the world to get closer to China, not the key variable. His unipolarism of "America First" and hegemonic actions of withdrawing from groups and exerting pressure are merely accelerating the bursting of the myth of the American way. The appeal of China lies within the practice of its modernization.
