It depends on how strong the China/Russian alliance gets. Biden seems to be doing a good job lately at ensuring this alliance continues to gain positive traction. The recent evidence by acclaimed American journalist, Hersh of the Nordstream pipeline attack by the CIA has China increasing their rhetoric against the US government and for Biden to 'come clean'.
This is why Ukraine is such a major historical event. If Russia are successful at defeating NATO in Ukraine, then plenty of developing countries in Asia, South America, Africa etc will become more aligned with Russia and China or "BRICS" nations for both safety and economic means. BRICS are already starting to initiate trading outside of the US dollar and their ultimate goal is to weaken the US dollar and change the global superpower spectrum. The more countries that shift from activities and trading away from the US dollar, the weaker it gets. IMO the next few years are going to be very bad for the USA. While the west have been focusing on woke ideologies, climate fear, and getting weaker by the day, China, Russia etc have been stockpiling commodities, using fossil fuels to the highest degree and increasing industrialization and military manufacturing.
The west has been complacent and actually very naive imo. Probably because they have been making predictions based on their own economic and industrial capabilities. We saw in March last year, western analysts sent the mainstream media information that Russia was about to run out of ammunition. Well, 11 months later we see that's definitely not the case.
