China and the War in Ukraine: How will China's role evolve now that Trump is targeting Beijing?

Can Trump get China to stop supporting Russia?How will the trade war with the US develop? Will China lead an axis of authoritarian regimes against the West?Has Beijing become more supportive of Russia lately?Will China be emboldened or deterred from invading Taiwan from the War in Ukraine?To answer these questions and more I spoke with former colleague Thomas Zhang, long-time China expert and Head of the China department at FrontierView. Thomas Zhang, China expert based in Singapore who leads the China team at FrontierView, a political and economic risk consultancy. Earlier, Thomas was on the China desk at the BBC and Financial Times in London. China's role in today's world and related to the war are central. On top of the War in Ukraine - the most critical moment in the international security order since 1945 - the US has grafted upon this a global trade war, with China at the center of it. Trump has now turned his sights to China, correctly recognizing that without Beijing's solid support for Russia's war machine, Russia would never have been able to sustain this war these past 3.5 years. So what happens now? Tune in to find out the view from a China expert.
