How U.S. Change its China Policy During the Ukraine War

The past decade has seen China-U.S. tensions ratchet up. Since Russian forces began their full-scale attack on Ukraine on February 24th, 2022, the U.S. intended to Russianize China’s image, constantly tying China to Russia via unverifiable intelligence. From “China- Russia no-limits friendship” to “Ukraine today, Taiwan tomorrow”, to “Chinese spy balloon”, the war of words between the two nations has reached newer levels. Meanwhile, China has been subjected to mounting U.S. technology sanctions. These sanctions, bordering on hostility, between the two superpowers caused their economies to decouple. The U.S. is developing a systematic, hard-line strategy on China. How to manage these challenges should be a top foreign policy priority for the Chinese government.
