US diplomat proposes Nato-like trade bloc to tackle China’s economic coercion
==========
US Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel advocates for a coalition akin to NATO to counter China's economic coercion; he suggests the coalition needs an economic equivalent of NATO's Article 5; Emanuel cites Australia's experience with Chinese tariffs post-Covid-19 probe as a lesson; he emphasizes the need for like-minded countries to collaborate closely; Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba's idea of a collective defense architecture in Asia has gained attention; Emanuel, a former chief of staff to Barack Obama, may assume a key role if Kamala Harris wins the presidential election; many officials view Ishiba's concept as unrealistic.
