I'm not defending them, but maybe you could name some reasons why cooperating benefits them?

I'm not arguing it wouldn't be good if they cooperated, but just genuinely interested in what the perceived benefits would be to them?

Possibly people would over time stop treating them like enemies, if they actually behaved like allies. The whole world is (very slowly) moving away from any dependence on China.

If they actually cooperated with the rest of the world instead of trying to take advantage of it while slowly planning how to take over Asia, they'd have it easier.
