(Bloomberg) -- Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said geopolitics today requires Nixonian flexibility to help defuse conflicts between the US and China as well as between Russia and the rest of Europe.
While warning that China shouldnt become a global hegemon, the man who helped reestablish US-China ties in the 1970s said that President Joe Biden should be wary of letting domestic politics interfere with the importance of understanding the permanence of China.
Biden and previous administrations have been too much influenced by the domestic aspects of the view of China, Kissinger, 99, said in an interview Tuesday in New York with Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait. It is, of course, important to prevent Chinese or any other countrys hegemony.
But that is not something that can be achieved by endless confrontations, he added in the interview produced by Intelligence Squared US and How To Academy. Hes previously said the increasingly adversarial relations between the US and China risk a global catastrophe comparable to World War I.

With the help of the GOP.
Making nice with Russia and China will not stop their quest for a new global order in the least.
