Trying to decipher the ‘wacky’ US National Security Strategy

“Now, the interesting thing about this national security strategy, it sort of declares the end of great power rivalry by saying, actually, America is content to live in a world with other great powers, and accept that other great powers will have their own spheres of influence."The language is ambiguous. It's very unclear what it hopes to achieve, what the administration hopes to achieve strategically, in Asia, in relation to China. But it certainly seems to me to go a long way towards accepting that China is going to be a much more significant player in Asia than it used to be."
