Xi Jinping and the Cold War

from Cold War Cast · host Cold War Cast

For Xi Jinping the Cold War never really ended. What we saw as a victory of democracy was a failure of weak men and a cautionary tale for Xi and the Chinese Communist Party. In this episode we talk about the chaos and suffering Xi endured in his young life to make him into the man he is today. The Cold War was a visceral experience for him that made him wary of chaos and disorder. I think looking at his Cold War experience helps explain this leader who is elusive to the outside world.
