always amazes me how history repeats itself, back in the 19th century China did the same, refused Britain access to Chinese market while at the same time exporting high demand goods like silk and tea creating a huge trade imbalance - Britain unleashed a plague of opium addiction which resulted in the two Opium Wars. The utter defeat and humiliation the Chinese suffered was the beginning of 'modern' China, they will never trust the West and we will never trust them.
I honestly don't see how the world avoids nuclear war within the next century or less, unless it's some equally devastating form of warfare that isn't nuclear.
