That's not based on the article is it? The article seems to attribute growth primarily to the war economy.

The war industry isn't actually that big of the overall percentage of the overall economy. Western publications tend to focus on the war industry as the explanation, but the reality is that western decoupling opened up a lot of economic niches that are now being filled domestically.

Yeah, I read the comment. The thesis of the title isn't supported by the article, which makes for a confusing read.
