The United States needs to decouple from China economically, politically, and technologically, Ian Easton, senior director of The Project 2049 Institute, a Virginia-based think tank focused on promoting American values and security interests in the Indo-Pacific region, told The Epoch Times in an interview.

Easton suggested that U.S. interactions with China are “a zero-sum game,” and said that it is “dangerous … to treat a strategic competitor, a radical political organization like the Chinese Communist Party like it’s normal, and like this is a country we can do business with.”
