    I understand that for sure. Inertia and legacy, its not so easy to switch. I mean this is why in the end (among the powerful nations) we buy 0 from China for defence. Yet we buy considerably from US now compared to cold war. In fact in the cold war (and even post cold war), it was the US...

    TR Foreign Policy & Geopolitics
