SATISH SHARMA - not just Rotigraphy.: China is actually doing the world a favor here by enforcing consequences that never existed before. Far from "attacking the world", China is making it fairer.

This really goes to show the disconnect between the US and the world. They're trying to spin China's rare earth controls as some sort of unprovoked "attack on the world" when the truth is that the immense majority of the world is cheering China here: finally someone strong and daring enough to stand up to US bullying. The bigger timeless lesson here is the golden rule: "Don't do unto others what you don't want done unto you." The US could afford to ignore it during the unipolar moment as the power differential meant nothing meaningful could be done to them, but the rules have obviously changed in the multipolar world we're entering into. No doubt a new and uncomfortable rule to abide by for the US and Trump in particular, but China is actually doing the world a favor here by enforcing consequences that never existed before. Far from "attacking the world", China is making it fairer.
