The '''Chinese Cold War''' officially started on May 29, 2019 when [[Chinese Communist]] state media called for a "people's war" against the [[United States]].

{{quotebox-float|"States are sensitive to their capabilities relative to other countries and, in response to certain threats or developments, naturally seek to create balance against them.
Whilst this is most prominently understood on [[military]] terms, ‘power’ extends to something much broader in practice, especially in today’s world. We don’t just think in terms of bombs or tanks, but everything which pertains to the strength of a state including [[technology]], the [[economy]], industrial assets, [[infrastructure]], [[currency]] and so on.
The new competition between the US, its allies and China is different to the original [[Cold War]], in that it is premised on all of those things. This isn’t about who simply has the most [[nuclear weapon]]s, it’s a ‘Cold War of [[globalization]]’ of sorts, where everything contributes to the outcome of who dominates.}}

In January 2020, the [[Chinese Communist Party]] regime plainly demonstrated criminal intent by attempting to buy up the world's medical supplies and limiting all exports of their own, while refusing to communicate to the rest of the world the truth about the outbreak of the [[CCP virus]] in Wuhan. A DHS report relates, "We further assess the Chinese Government attempted to hide its actions by denying there were export restrictions and obfuscating and delaying provision of its trade data".<ref>https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/03/dhs-china-hiding-coronavirus-info-supplies-233185</ref> "In January, according to the report, China increased its imports of surgical facemasks by 278 percent, surgical gowns by 72 percent, and surgical gloves by 32 percent. Meanwhile, it slashed its global exports of a host of medical products: surgical gloves by 48 percent, surgical gowns by 71 percent, face masks by 48 percent, medical ventilators by 45 percent, intubator kits by 56 percent, thermometers by 53 percent, and cotton balls and swabs by 58 percent." China has long since thus squandered the right to be treated as a good-faith actor by openly warring in such a way with the free world.
