The Importance of Decoupling From China

I'm actually less worried about Chinese China's economic influence and other forms of influence. I don't think we have been able to use economic leverage and quote unquote soft power to be able to get other countries to fall into line like North Korea Cuba or Iran even Iraq before 2003. They're facing a lot of blowback from its attempts to use its economic leverage which is exactly had very mixed results has mixed results also partially because they actually expect to make money on it right so that's good news the bad news is that they have a military. The most credible reason we should worry about China going beyond Taiwan is the military, he says.
