33:32Now PlayingWashington operates on the base assumption that the greatest threat to the United States is China (more specifically, the Chinese Communist Party). Not Russia, not Islamic Terrorism. China. But why is that?
The Parliament makes confusing global geopolitics and American national security accessible.
In this episode, Darion invites Heritage Foundation National Security and Indo-Pacific Affairs Policy Analyst Andrew Harding to the show. Darion and Andrew discuss the who, what, when, where, and why of the Chinese Threat and, importantly, how the U.S. can win. For decades, China played the long game and slowly seized control of markets, supply chains, and influence around the world. They did this under the nose of the United States. Now, we live in a world where China is boldly throwing their weight around to directly challenge the United States as the world superpower.
