The U.S.
didn't even recognize China or mainland China until that time.
You know, for for American diplomatic purposes, Chiang Kai-shek and the KMT in Taiwan were like the rightful owners of mainland China.
So
Oh, amazing.
I hope she has a great time.
So, you know, 1973, we have the Sino-Soviet split where Mao decides that he's sick of Khrushchev's BS and sees an advantage in becoming better friends with America.
And all of a sudden we have this conflict
I would say 50 year arc of actual pretty dramatic U.S.
and Chinese economic technological and even up until the 1990s military entanglement where America had this idea that during the Cold War that supporting Chinese development would help gain an edge over the Soviet Union and then
Afterwards, that morphed into, oh, this is an important emerging economy.
There's a lot of economic opportunities sort of couched in this like liberalization thesis that the more we engage with China, the more kind of open, democratic, friendly it will feel to our small liberal sensibilities.
that may have ended up being the case had 1989 turned out differently.
But that's not the world we're in.
And I would put our third periodization starting around, I don't know, 2013, 2014, where the Obama administration, followed by Trump won, really started to reframe China as more of an enemy, or I would say a competitor.
And in that
We've had a lot of different permutations of the thing we're seeing today from Trump one's trade war to covid to Biden putting on all these export controls and banning stuff like Chinese electric vehicles to now.
Trump too, where we're now like, you know, six months into a saga of we had liberation day and now we're escalating on this and that front.
But the fact of the matter is it's a big mess because these are the two largest economies in the world and they're not separate.
Um, and there's a lot of sort of pieces of both systems that see advantages in keeping connections.
