That means first clarifying which US national interests are to be protected, together with those of principal partners and allies. This includes the following:
■retain collective economic and technological superiority
■protect the global status of the US dollar
■maintain overwhelming conventional military deterrence and prevent any unacceptable shift in the strategic nuclear balance
■prevent any Chinese territorial expansion, especially the forcible reunification with Taiwan
■consolidate and expand alliances and partnerships
■defend (and as necessary reform) the current rules-based liberal international order and, critically, its ideological underpinnings, including core democratic values
■address persistent shared global threats, including preventing catastrophic climate change

The only sort of clever thing in that is:
Sixth, the United States must rebalance its relationship with Russia whether it likes it or not. Effectively reinforcing US alliances is critical. Dividing Russia from China in the future is equally so. Allowing Russia to drift fully into China’s strategic embrace over the last decade will go down as the single greatest geostrategic error of successive US administrations.

Too bad current democrats are very upset at Putin due to 2016 election interference, and Putin is not exactly on a good mood with US what with the protests that are happening as we speak. When/if US repairs relation with Russia China would already be number 1 power globally.

Rather provocative view from Lao Hu: praising the CEOs of Volkswagen and HSBC, while chastising the ideological fanatics.
They are a group of stupid and arrogant laymen, according to him. The days when Chinese media are restrained or being modest are numbered. There is growing recognition of being frank and direct when interacting with the West.

One point of that article they mention about forcing China into start treaty by enforcing a cap on China nuclear weapons, similar to what pompeo has been advocating
What means are they going to use to achieve that? No way China will yield on that
