What Does US–China ‘Constructive Strategic Stability’ Look Like?

The Trump–Xi summit may not have accomplished much, but both countries walked away with new labels for the U.S.–China relationship. For Beijing, it's "constructive strategic stability." For Washington, it's "a constructive relationship of strategic stability on the basis of fairness and reciprocity." Join Terri as she decodes what the Chinese term really means—and how the regime's intent gets "lost in translation," or perhaps "strategically concealed in translation." This isn't just essential listening for China watchers. It's information Washington needs to hear.

episode Entangled Combat: The Chinese Style of Competition Washington Should Understand artwork

Entangled Combat: The Chinese Style of Competition Washington Should Understand

Most Westerners in business operate on the baseline assumption that hard work leads to success and beating the competition. With business in communist China, that doesn’t hold. Hard work is a must, but not the most important ingredient for success. In this episode, join Terri as she discusses the machinations that determine whether top companies live or die, and how the competitive mentality is set from a very young age. Hear about one of many fallen giants, and how another may be in the same ominous position but still holding on—for the time being.

On Shadow Fleets, ‘Teapots,’ and Layered Approaches to Avoiding Sanctions

Teapots, gas stations, and shadow fleets sound like a grab bag of unconnected things, but they’re all part of a complex system keeping a terrorist regime in power and rendering international sanctions ineffective. That is, they’re part of the system China uses to import Iranian oil. But that system is no longer being allowed to run unchecked. Hear about what has changed since Feb. 28, including what has been seized by the U.S. Navy. Find out why this is all happening ahead of the Trump–Xi summit, with Terri Wu on this week’s episode of China Watch.

Why a Once-Taboo Topic on China Is Now a US Bestseller

Forced organ harvesting in China was once a taboo topic, in both China and the United States. But now, a book about it, “Killed to Order,” has made it to The New York Times non-fiction bestsellers list. I interviewed the author Jan Jekielek, senior editor of The Epoch Times and host of American Thought Leader, about why and how the tide has turned. * Buy [https://www.amazon.com/Killed-Order-Harvesting-Industry-Adversary/dp/1510786503/?NYTbestseller] a copy of “Killed to Order” * The Hot Mic Moment that Exposed China’s Elite Transplant Obsession | Rob Schneider & Jan Jekielek (Watch [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCg8IOa1QDQ]) * Rate [http://www.ratethispodcast.com/chinawatch] this show Views expressed in this episode are opinions of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times. — Terri Wu is a Washington-based freelance reporter for The Epoch Times covering education and China-related issues.

The Battlefield Vulture—China’s Postwar Build-Back Playbook

Beijing avoids the battlefield, then shows up for the rebuild. Precedents include Iraq and Afghanistan. The Chinese regime moved quickly to secure oil, minerals, and influence. In this way, the regime acted like a vulture on a battlefield. When the Iran war enters a new phase, what role will China play in reconstruction? And how can the United States respond to protect its strategic interests? I spoke with Max Meizlish of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and Galia Lavi of the Institute for National Security Studies in Israel for more insights. * Tell us how we can improve at Epoch Times Podcast Network (Take Survey [http://www.tinyurl.com/etpodcastsurvey]) Views expressed in this episode are opinions of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times. — Terri Wu is a Washington-based freelance reporter for The Epoch Times covering education and China-related issues.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
