CNN article: Are Trump (USA) and Xi (China) on the brink of a new Cold War?
Are Trump and Xi on the brink of a new Cold War?, https://edition.cnn.com/2018/10/12/asia/us-china-trade-military-politics-intl/index.html, published by CNN on 13th October 2018
A small extract from it:
Since June, United States and China's diplomatic ties have deteriorated rapidly across a range of fronts, not just trade but also military and politics.
It may not be the start of the next Cold War, at least not yet, but relations between the two sides have been plunged into an unprecedented deep chill.

Ravi: This article seems to reflect the reality of a tense standoff between USA and China on a variety of matters, not limited to trade though trade issues have been highlighted by USA administration.
This tense standoff between the two biggest economies (country-wise) in the world today, USA and China, perhaps is the biggest world order stability issue in our early 21st century times. [USA: 2018 nominal GDP of around 20.5 trillion US$, China: 2018 nominal GDP of around 13.5 trillion US$, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_economy#Current_world_economic_league_table_of_largest_economies_in_the_world_by_GDP_and_share_of_global_economic_growth.]
Lets hope and pray that the tense USA-China standoff gets resolved without the tension becoming more and without too much turmoil in world order and world trade.
