YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Shingo Yamagami argues that Xi Jinping, surrounded by yes-men and facing the end of his third term, has raised the stakes on Taiwan so high that he has effectively trapped himself into taking some form of action.

Shingo Yamagami is a Japanese diplomat who served as the Ambassador to Australia from December 2020 to April 2023. Yamagami worked in Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs for four decades, also serving in Washington D.C., Hong Kong, Geneva and London. He is now the special advisor to the Japanese corporate law firm TMI Associates, and is the Senior Fellow of Sasakawa Peace Foundation.
