The Second Cold War, or New Cold War, is a term used to describe conflicts and international tension that are reminiscent of the Cold War, particularly those seen between NATO and the People's Republic of China and Russian Federation, along with their respective allies.[1][2]

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 embargos, travel restrictions, and even discriminatory violence against people of Asian ethnicity abroad, which has been further encouraged by the reactionary bourgeois media.[3][4][5][6]
