The United States-China relationship is heading for more confrontation. That s because there s too much at stake politically for US President Joe Biden at home for him to look for a reset , and because Biden - and, for that matter, pretty much the entire political spectrum in the US - has serious objections to China s vision of the way the world should be run.
