China still on track to supplant US as world’s No 1 economy in 10 years: academic
AI Summary
According to academic Li Cheng, China is still projected to surpass the United States as the world's leading economy within the next decade. Speaking at the Boao Forum for Asia in Hainan, China, Li argued that while China faces economic transitions, the US is hampered by internal conflicts and "self-defeating" policies. He cited examples such as cultural wars, trade wars, and rising anti-globalization sentiment in the US. Li also pointed to increasing hostility towards international collaborations, particularly with China, impacting US academic institutions. He suggests these internal challenges will likely persist in the US, hindering its economic progress relative to China.
