Germany is at risk of sustaining collateral damage in the face of intensifying US-Chinese competition and conict. China’s ascendance and America’s desire to preserve the status quo lock Beijing and Washington into a classic security dilemma. The United States sees China as a potential regional hegemon in Asia and as an emerging global systemic challenger. China sees the United States as impeding its rise. Security competition is already well underway. So are geo-economic and geo-technological competition and conict. For Germany, a position of relative neutrality or equidistance is not an option, it should consider pursuing a multi-track approach.
