Chine

Between China and the United States, the hatchet has never been buried. The trade war initiated by the two superpowers in 2018 took on a different form a year later. Since 2019, analysts have renamed this Sino-American antagonism the 'technology war.' It began with a decree banning Chinese technologies meant for equipping American 5G companies. Packs of sanctions followed this restriction, unfortunately creating a boomerang effect. Electronic giants specializing in bitcoin mining chips like Intel and Nvidia are suffering.

China is one of the United States' fiercest competitors for global hegemony. At least in economic terms. To achieve this, the country seems to be pursuing a strategy of limiting or even reducing its investments in the United States. Saudi Arabia, which has just joined the BRICS, also seems to be doing the same, further confirming its plans to leave the dollar behind.
