Michael Pillsbury, a former government official who served in the Department of Defense and is now the director of the Center for China Strategy, Hudson Institute. He analyzed the U.S.-China relationship in his 2015 book titled “The Hundred-Year Marathon, China’s Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower.”
It’s just results on the ground. We’re going to have a Chinese-led world order,” Michael Pillsbury, director for Chinese Strategy at the Hudson Institute and author of “The Hundred-Year Marathon,” told The Epoch Times’ sister media outlet NTD.
Pillsbury said the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) “[knows] to avoid direct conflict and avoid a wake-up call. And today, I believe some Chinese have told me they think 30 percent of the Americans are anti-China. Now, these public opinion polls that say 70 percent, that’s really not ‘enemy.’ It’s really ‘China’s unfriendly,’ or ‘I don’t trust them.’ But those people are still willing to invest in China, buy Chinese products. So we’re nowhere near a wake-up call.”
Michael Pillsbury and I have something in common. He for many years, and I briefly, worked for a great man at the Pentagon, Andrew Marshall, head of the Office of Net Assessment. Andy told me in 2013 that the Chinese missiles could sink an American carrier.
