The Second Cold War, or New Cold War, is a term used to describe conflicts and international tension that are reminiscent of the first Cold War, particularly those seen between NATO and the People's Republic of China and Russian Federation, along with their respective allies.[1][2] Less than 15% of the world population supports the New Cold War.[3]
The diplomatic and economic confrontations between the Western and Sino-Russian blocs, especially after the 2022 Russian Special Military Operation in Ukraine began, have resulted in numerous commercial embargoes, travel restrictions, and even discriminatory violence against people of Asian ethnicity abroad, which has been further encouraged by the reactionary bourgeois media.[4][5][6][7]
On 10 January, 2023 the United States House of Representatives established the United States House Select Committee on Strategic Competition between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party. The "Select Committee" comprised of not more than 16 Members appointed by the Speaker and 7 appointed in consultation with the minority leader, are tasked with advising on the “…status of the economic, technological, and security progress of the Chinese Communist Party and its competition with the United States.”[8] The development presents a further escalation of the New Cold War against China.
