China isn't even capable to take on Philippines or Taiwan, let alone USA. Maybe after 15-20 years China will be able to stretch muscles. Nevertheless America - Europe alliance will just get stronger and stronger. More countries will Join NATO. China has no chance whatsoever. Besides, the creation of trans pacific military alliance with Japan, Australia, South Korea Philippines (just to mention some) is closer to reality than ever before and will be working closely integrated with NATO. No chance whatsoever my friend. Russia is collapsing, Xi and Modi are not gonna be forever and the little rocket man will be smashed like an ugly and annoying fly.
China? Xi? No chance man, no chance. Russia - game over man. India is a confused elephant not yet knowing who is feeding him.
Brics going quietly down as expected. The undeniable power of the freedom and democracy emerges stronger than ever and it will be only better.
