Can China survive a US economic naval blockade?
The naval blockade by the US is an old game, no longer applicable nor an effective strategy against a smart superpower like China. It may work for a weak country like Venezuela and N.Korea.
The US can not survive without imports from China, there is no plausible reason to commit such self-harm.
China is a global factory, has the most complete supply chain, will certainly outlast the US if there is a conflict standoff.
China’s energy and food security are robust, will not be affected by US blockage, similarly, Chinese raw material imports are diverse, not easy for the US to cut them off.
China had been planning mitigating measures should such conflict scenario arise, therefore China is well prepared for any eventuality. The US will be defeated if it continues to believe it can contain and crush China.
The US is sick, broke, monstrous bubbly and on the verge of collapse, it does not have the capability nor can effort to have a conflict with China, the US is currently begging China for help.
