Following the first piece of U.S.-China relations about the two presidents holding similar but structurally different beliefs in authoritarianism published in last week’s issue, this second piece will cover the emergence of China in the international arena and how the U.S. has responded to China’s rise. But, first of all, I would like to share my “no surprise” towards President Donald Trump who tested positive with COVID-19, because of his levity on the recommendations on wearing masks and COVID-19 health protocols.

Knowledge is termed to be eternal, and so are the Indian Vedas. In fact, they are designated as the eternal knowledge of God in the form of a book for the Hindus. Also, Hinduism is believed to be the oldest religion in the world. Vedas are the most ancient scriptures in history dated between 1500-1200 BCE, which initially existed in oral form but later passed on to be the oldest texts. It teaches us to follow and acquire nothing but solely the truth in one’s life. This learning was beautifully manifested in an ancient language known as Vedic Sanskrit.
