Despite ongoing "trade wars" and shifting global power dynamics, countries continue to need the United States due to its economic and military strength, its role as a global leader, and its historical alliances and security commitments. 

These factors contribute to the perception of the U.S. as a necessary partner or even a stabilizing force in international affairs.

From SG, it is funni to watch Aussies have never learn to sort out their own priority - Are they Angmoh nation or just a leftover of a by-gone era of Angmoh imperial  leftovers ? 
Perhaps they should take SM Lee advise - Get on with life and learn to leave in a region minus UK and now USA... 

The opposition finance minister, James Paterson, criticised Albanese for the picture-friendly stops, describing them as “indulgent” and questioning whether the trip had achieved “tangible outcomes”.   Albanese responded saying “And those billion people represent people who increasingly are rising up the income ladder and are potential tourists and therefore job creators in Australia. ...“If James Paterson doesn’t understand that, then he doesn’t understand much. And quite frankly, I think the latter applies.”

Most countries are at the Mercy of USA trades.why?.

SM Lee, who chairs GIC, said the US continues to be the most dynamic and resilient economy, and the destination of choice for talented and enterprising people from all over the globe. Meanwhile, its capital markets remain the most innovative and open in the world.

And therefore, we fully intend to continue investing in the US and maintaining American assets as a substantial part of our overall portfolio.
