The net winner here is China, really. Historically a resource deficient nation, they now have an overland corridor with the most resource rich nation on earth. All that supply was European and otherwise western oriented, and now has turned east.

China is going to turn into a 1.5bn population version of Germany. An industrial powerhouse for the ages.

The fact that this is so obvious and so simple to understand yet is totally vacant from western political thought - except for Vivek- just demonstrates the entire political architecture in our societies has failed us

A small correction in one of your statements. This part should read.. “How did we get here? The answer is simple. Western political leaders have no earthly idea how….anything works.”
