Abstract
The author discusses his impressions of what he calls China’s nationalist diplomacy and its foreign policy errors. He states that China’s foreign policy is dangerous and the U.S. reaction is ill-conceived, which he argues enlarges the danger to stability and security. The author argues that the U.S. must signal to its allies in East Asia that it will provide for their security by utilizing its superior navy while recognizing that Chinese nationalism will continue to challenge the U.S.
