To me three words along an indeterminate timeline sums up the relationship between China and America.
Friends, Competitors and finally Adversaries.
There is not clean dividing line transitioning from one relationship to the other. Diplomats have to work hard on growing and sustaining a very large overlap between Competitors and Adversaries.
Smart people who are far from government should work on friendship between the two people. I know this is wishful but it is an act of faith. There are some people with great faith.
