Today, Les, Martha, Morgan, and Jeffrey discuss recent Chinese diplomatic maneuvering. Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to resolve a long-standing border dispute that has led to violent clashes and it set to meet with new Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba before Ishiba meets with the U.S. President. Alongside these meetings, China has lodged its increasing discontent with the growing partnership between North Korea and Russia.
What do these diplomatic maneuvers mean, and are they a break from the norm? How does the United States’ presidential election impact the framing of these moves? Is there a potential wedge between Russia and China?
Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.
