In a powerful message that is gaining attention online, a post said to be from President Xi Jinping says, “The world can move on without the United States.” These strong words are making many people think about how power shifts over time and how no country stays at the top forever.

The post reminds us that “100 years ago, the British Empire dominated global commerce, commanding more than 20% of the world’s wealth.” Back then, the British were so powerful that “many believed its sun would never set.” But with time, things changed, and the empire lost its control and influence. This shows that no matter how strong a nation is, its power doesn’t last forever.

The message also talks about France, saying that “200 years ago, France bestrode Europe’s stage, its armies feared, its culture...” (the rest of the quote is cut off, but the meaning is clear). France was once a major global power, with strong armies and a culture that influenced the world — but even that changed over time.

By giving these examples, the post is clearly trying to say that just like the British and French empires faded, the United States could also lose its leading role in the world. It’s a reminder that history moves on, and power doesn’t stay in one place forever.

This message may be seen as a warning or a challenge, especially during a time when global politics are changing fast. The quote suggests that the world is already preparing to move forward, even without the U.S.
