“This Is Unprecedented”: China’s Military Purge Signals Cold War 2.0
from Eurodollar University · host Jeff Snider
An unprecedented shakeup at the very top of the Chinese military has shaken up the rest of the world. Xi Jinping didn’t just go after a longtime friend and ally, he has gone after everyone in what increasingly looks like a paranoid, Stalinist shakeup. But why? I’ve told you many times before about the economic pressure on China that has only intensified more recently. But that’s not the only thing. That’s where it starts, but where it ends is what is increasingly being confirmed as Cold War 2.0.
