The US, not China, is threatening the rules-based world order
American foreign policy failures have inflicted untold misery worldwide for decades, while Beijing is now achieving tangible results

6The article is rank propaganda. Coming from a supposed middle eastern journal it's pretty shameful that it didn't even mention what China is doing to Muslims in Xinjiang. Besides that, China is in taking aggressive actions against many of its neighbors, not just Taiwan but also the Philippines, Malaysia, Japan, etc. Plus the wolf warrior stuff against Australia, South Korea and the like. Not to mention the illegal armed fishing fleet operations in the territorial waters of smaller nations around the world.
In comparison, the USA illegally invaded Iraq and Afghanistan, has meddled in the internal affairs of many Latin American countries, and supports Israel.
One could certainly argue that America's crimes are worse on the margin, but the idea that one supports a rules-based order and the other does not is laughable. Both violate international rules and laws continuously whenever it suits them and they can get away with it.
