Duo’s lingo: what to watch for in Trump-Xi summit

from Economist Podcasts

The meeting between President Donald Trump and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping will set the tone for three more this year. We examine what and what not to expect. Pepsi has been losing ground to Coca Cola recently; to catch up, it may have to become more like its rival. And this year’s Venice Biennale is uncomfortably besieged by geopolitics. Guests and host:Simon Rabinovitch, Beijing bureau chiefShera Avi-Yonah, business correspondentAlexandra Suich Bass, culture editorRosie Blau, co-host of “The Intelligence”Jason Palmer, co-host of “The Intelligence”Topics covered: Trump/Xi summit, geopoliticsCoca Cola, Pepsi, businessVenice Biennale, cultureGet a world of insights by subscribing to Economist Podcasts+.
