Atlantic Magazine’s Tom McTag has argued that far from the French outbursts, we may be witnessing a slight reshaping of Western geopolitics, with the United States prioritizing countering the perceived threat to China. “The shocks of Trump and Brexit in 2016 – the year Australia signed the original submarine deal with France – led, inadvertently and indirectly, to today’s world, where there is now a political consensus in the US, Britain and Australia that Chinese power must be contained.” he wrote. “Considering, the end of the war in Afghanistan, the Axis against China, and the prioritization of old Anglo alliances over the European Union are all major strategic moves.”
