YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDespite its purported friends being both attacked and blockaded by the U.S., Beijing was eager to invite President Trump for a grand summit. Iran is a comrade in a global struggle against the West with China, yet both Chairman Xi and President Trump agreed that the Islamic Republic cannot have a nuclear weapon and that they must open the Strait of Hormuz. How is this not hypocrisy, and what do soybeans have to do with the U.S.–China Summit?
The Parliament makes confusing global geopolitics and American national security accessible.
In this episode, Darion invites Heritage Foundation China Expert Steve Yates to the show. Steve was a Deputy National Security Advisor to the Vice President and is the current host of The China Desk podcast (chinadeskpodcast.com). Darion and Steve discuss what the outcomes are of the U.S.–China Summit in Beijing, and what may lie ahead. Taiwan was of course a major focus of conversation since Steve just arrived from Taipei.
