Strategic Competition in the Second Trump Administration

The strategic competition between the United States and the People’s Republic of China (PRC) emerged prominently during Donald Trump’s first administration. Policies such as tariffs and trade restrictions, initially implemented under Trump, were subsequently maintained and expanded under Joe Biden’s administration.
