Column: How the U.S. can turn China from a foe into a friendly competitor (via latimesopinion )
The House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party is scheduled to hold its first hearingChair Mike Gallagher and ranking member Raja Krishnamoorthi seemto do just that, issuing joint statements and working collaboratively to set priorities. They’ll have their work cut out for them.
Defense hawks see the rise of China — coupled with its view of Taiwan — as a justification for increased defense spending most would favor anyway. In other corners of the right, now that Islamism is no longer seen as the “civilizational” foe it once was, some nationalists are eager to cast China as our defining enemy.
For instance, it’s a good sign that the committee’s title targets the Chinese Communist Party and not China itself. Both as a matter of statecraft, as well as simple truth-telling, we should distinguish between the authoritarian regime that rules China and the people of China.
