Write a founding strategy document on China
What the document says“The U.S. government needs an Article X for China”
Article X refers to the anonymous 1947 article that set out the doctrine of containment toward the Soviet Union. The chapter says the State Department and National Security Council should draft an equivalent for China as a presidential mandate, and that it should be a deeply philosophical look at the challenge. It says a strategy of competing where necessary while cooperating where possible, including on climate change, has demonstrably failed, and that the issue is with the Communist dictatorship rather than the Chinese people.
What the document actually says“The U.S. government needs an Article X for China”
America needs one big plan for China. It should be like the one written about the Soviet Union.
In 1947 an article set out how to handle the Soviet Union. It shaped policy for years. The book says China needs the same kind of plan now.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
