Janan Ganesh’s column “Tariffs will not restore US unipolarity” (Opinion, February 13), musing about what might have happened to world economic history had China not been admitted into the World Trade Organization, reminds me of an apocryphal story about Sir Alec Douglas-Home, the UK prime minister in the 1960s.

When asked what would have happened, if on November 22 1963 Nikita Khrushchev had been assassinated in place of John F Kennedy, Douglas-Home replied that he did not know how the whole course of human history might have changed. However, what he could say with certainty was that Aristotle Onassis would not have married Mrs Khrushchev.
