China is eating the world
Now include state (not notional) debt, and state/national owned institutions.

then we would need to include major US institutions debt too(for example top N banks)?

Only those backed by government guarantee like China has for state owned business. So I guess up to the depositary insurance amounts? But that isn't debt, so no, it's not the same.

We can argue that US saved major banks in the past too, and not much prevents China from bankrupting state owned companies.
