Why do you think China has “hegemonic” aspirations? China has one overseas military base. The USA has 750.

Actions on the Indian border , in the South China Sea, in the East China Sea, in Pakistan, Sri Lanka etc . Does not cancel out the USA’s hegemonic actions, which are also very much a reality

China’s actions are inside its own sphere of influence. The USA is doing stuff all around the world. It is now threatening to bomb TSMC in Taiwan if Taiwan rejoins China. These are the actions of an interventionist hegemonic power. I know that China is unpopular in India, but the facts are pretty obvious.
